SN74LVT16245A: SN74LVT16245BDGGR usage issue

Part Number: SN74LVT16245A
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SN74LV4T125

There were two failures in our company's nearly 200 sets of finished products,

one of which was below 10 ohms of the Pin20 pair of ground impedance as shown in the figure,

and one of which was below 10 ohms of the PIN22 pair of ground impedance as shown in the figure.

The internal breakdown was suspected.Is there any problem with my schematic diagram? Could you please check it for me?

In addition, PWM terminal input has any good Suggestions, or reference circuit.?

thank you!

  • Hello,

    Yes the input of below 10 Ohms between the input and ground does seem too low. I am going to need a few more things from you to completely understand this.
    Why do you have pull down resistors on the input? Also, have you left the unused inputs of this device floating?
    Could a buffer such as the SN74LV4T125 be a better fit for you for this application?

    Thanks!

  • Hi Karan,

    we are the end user for this case, now I am concerning the mark on the top side, which I highlight by red in picture underneath, because it's unshowned in datasheet,

    could you please let us know what these character mean? such as "8" means year, "GS" means manufacture facility,

    thanks!

  • Hi Jerry,

    I see that you also posted this top-side marking question here.  There's no need to post the same question three times.

    Also, you didn't answer any of Karan's questions.  If you'd like our help, we will need you to work together with us.

    From your schematic, it looks like you have left 13 inputs of this device floating, which is a certain way to cause the device to draw excessive current, and could possibly destroy it. I'm sure that's why Karan asked about the floating inputs.
