SN74AHC245: Termination for Temporarily Tri-Stated Inputs

Part Number: SN74AHC245

Hi Team,


On my customer's system, the SN74AHC245 direction (DIR) pin is controlled by a R/nW signal (logic 1 selects A->B) and side A of the transceiver is connected to a bus, which connects to circuit boards and components that are tri-stated for long periods of time (minutes). Would the A-side bus require passive termination? I assume it does, similar to floating inputs, but would like to confirm.

Thanks,

Antonio
