74ABT16244CSSC

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The Fairchild Semiconductor 74ABT16244CSSC is a 16-bit buffer and line driver featuring 3-STATE outputs. It belongs to the ABT logic series, utilizing advanced BiCMOS technology for high-speed operation with low power dissipation. The device is housed in a 54-pin SSOP package (JESD-30 code R-PDSO-G54) and operates within a temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C. It supports a load capacitance of 50 pF and includes dual output enable controls.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Advanced BiCMOS technology provides high-speed performance comparable to Bipolar Schottky TTL while maintaining CMOS low power consumption.
• Non-inverting 3-STATE buffers designed for memory address drivers, clock drivers, and bus-oriented transmitter/receiver applications.
• Nibble-controlled architecture allows separate 3-STATE control inputs for each byte, which can be shorted for full 16-bit operation.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Memory address drivers
• Clock drivers
• Bus-oriented transmitter/receivers

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CSSC against official datasheets to confirm the SSOP package type and industrial temperature rating. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for 54-pin narrow body small outline packages. Confirm RoHS compliance status as per the manufacturing date code.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when 16-bit unidirectional buffering with high drive capability is required. The ABT series offers superior speed over standard AC/ACT families. Verify that the nibble control scheme fits the system design; if independent byte control is unnecessary, simpler octal alternatives may reduce cost.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context
