74FCT162373ATPAG8

Latches Overview

The IDT74FCT162373ATPAG8 is a 16-bit transparent D-type latch from the FCT series, manufactured using 0.5-micron CMOS technology. It integrates two independent 8-bit latches within a single 48-pin TSSOP package. The device operates at a supply voltage of 5V ±10% and supports an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Key electrical characteristics include balanced output drivers with ±24mA capability, typical output skew under 250ps, and low input/output leakage currents not exceeding 1µA. It features reduced system switching noise with typical output ground bounce below 0.6V.

Latches Feature Summary

• High-speed, low-power CMOS implementation replacing ABT functions
• Balanced output drivers for reduced system switching noise
• Low input and output leakage current specifications
• Industrial temperature range operation capability

Latches Applications

• Memory address latching in computing systems
• I/O port buffering and control
• Bus driver implementations requiring temporary data storage

Latches Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '8' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm packaging configuration, as standard datasheets may list generic TSSOP-48 without reel specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead-free designation directly with the supplier or Renesas Electronics, as manufacturing sources have transitioned. Ensure the component matches the exact pinout and electrical parameters defined in the latest IDT/FCT series datasheet before integration into production designs.

Latches Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring high-density 16-bit data storage with fast propagation delays. The dual 8-bit architecture allows flexible configuration for parallel data handling. Consider the TSSOP-48 package for space-constrained PCB layouts. Evaluate the low power consumption and noise reduction features against system electromagnetic interference requirements. Verify compatibility with existing 5V logic families and ensure thermal management meets the specified operating temperature limits.

Latches Part Context

This part belongs to the IDT 74FCT162373T family of FAST CMOS 16-bit transparent latches. The FCT series is designed as a high-performance replacement for older ABT logic families, offering improved speed and lower power dissipation. Integrated Device Technology was acquired by Renesas Electronics, which now manages the product line. The device utilizes advanced dual-metal CMOS technology to achieve its performance metrics while maintaining compatibility with standard TTL and CMOS inputs.

Latches Replacement Considerations

Texas Instruments recommends the SN74ALVCH162373LR as a substitute. Verify voltage level compatibility and pin-to-pin equivalence before substitution.
