74FCT162501ETPACT

Overview

The 74FCT162501ETPACT is an 18-bit universal bus transceiver manufactured by Cypress Semiconductor. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and supports output currents of 24 mA for both high and low states. The device is housed in a 56-pin SSOP package with a width of 7.50 mm. It functions as a registered transceiver, designed for surface mount installation. The component is rated for an operating temperature range from -40°C to 85°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides 18-bit bidirectional data transmission capability via universal bus architecture.
• Incorporates registered input functionality to manage signal timing and stability.
• Supports standard TTL/CMOS logic levels for broad compatibility.

Applications

• High-speed data handling in FPGA systems
• Universal bus interface circuits
• Registered transceiver applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ETPACT' against official Cypress or Infineon documentation to confirm pinout and electrical characteristics, as variations exist within the 74FCT162501 family. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for obsolete status indicators, as this part may be superseded by newer revisions or equivalent components from current manufacturers.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an 18-bit registered bus transceiver is required for systems operating at 5V. Ensure the design accommodates the 56-SSOP footprint and thermal requirements for the -40°C to 85°C range. Verify that the 24mA drive strength meets the load requirements of the connected bus lines without exceeding absolute maximum ratings.

Part Context

This device belongs to the 74FCT series of fast CMOS logic products originally developed by Cypress Semiconductor, which was later acquired by Infineon Technologies. The 74FCT162501 variant specifically addresses the need for wide-bus data transfer with registration, distinguishing it from non-registered counterparts like the 74FCT16245.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with IDT or Renesas equivalents such as the 74FCT162501CTPV or 74FCT162501ATPV. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution, as manufacturer-specific suffixes may indicate different packaging or temperature grades.
