74FCT162244ETPVG8

Overview

The 74FCT162244ETPVG8 is a 16-bit buffer and line driver manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It belongs to the FCT logic series and features four non-inverting channels, each handling four bits. The device provides three-state outputs and operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V. It is housed in a 48-pin TSSOP package with a shrink pitch. The component supports surface mount installation and functions reliably across an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides sixteen non-inverting signal paths for bus buffering applications
• Features three-state outputs to facilitate system bus isolation
• Designed for high-speed data transmission using FCT CMOS technology

Applications

• High-speed bus buffering in computer systems
• Clock distribution networks
• Data acquisition systems requiring signal isolation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix ET against official Renesas documentation to confirm manufacturing lot details and compliance status. Confirm availability as this part number may be subject to discontinuation or lifecycle changes. Ensure the TSSOP-48 package matches the target PCB footprint requirements before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16-bit non-inverting buffer with three-state control is required. It is suitable for designs operating at standard 5V logic levels. Consider the propagation delay characteristics typical of the FCT series for timing analysis. Verify that the thermal performance of the TSSOP package meets the application's heat dissipation needs.

Part Context

This device is part of the broader 74FCT162244T family of buffers. Variants within this family share identical logical functionality but differ in package types, such as SSOP or TQFP, and speed grades indicated by suffixes like CT or AT. The ETPVG8 designation specifies the particular package and tape-and-reel configuration for this unit.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering equivalent 16-bit FCT buffers. Check pin compatibility and electrical specifications carefully. Note that while functionally similar, differences in output drive strength or input thresholds may exist between different vendors' implementations.
