SN74AVC4T245 Power Consumption

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SN74AVC4T245

Hi,

I am using the SN74AVC4T245 bus transceiver in a low power application.  VCCA is always present and is +3V3.  VCCB is not always present.  When available it is +1V8. Currently the part is enabled all of the time.

 

To reduce power consumption I removed my signals connected to +3V3 when the +1V8 is not present.  This had good results.

 

To get the lowest power consumption should I:

  1. Remove VCCA if VCCB is not present or

2. Leave VCCA present and disable the part

 

All inputs to the part are low.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
