74FCT162H245ATPVCT

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The Texas Instruments 74FCT162H245ATPVCT is a 16-bit bus transceiver in the FCT logic family, housed in a 48-lead SSOP package. It operates at VCC = 5V ± 10% with an industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C. The device features balanced output drivers providing 24 mA sink and source currents, alongside bus hold functionality on data inputs to eliminate external pull-up or pull-down resistors. Propagation delay ranges from 1.5 ns to 4.5 ns, with typical ground bounce below 0.6V at VCC = 5V.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Bus hold circuitry retains input state during high impedance conditions
• Balanced output drivers reduce system switching noise
• Ioff supports partial-power-down mode operation
• Edge-rate control improves noise characteristics

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Bidirectional synchronous communication between two buses
• Driving transmission lines
• High-speed low-power applications

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code against the manufacturer's current active status list. Confirm that the SSOP package variant matches the required pitch and pin count for your PCB footprint. Ensure the 'A' speed grade aligns with your timing requirements before finalizing procurement.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when bidirectional data transfer requires balanced drive strength and internal bus holding. It is suitable for designs needing reduced ground bounce without external termination resistors. Verify compatibility with TTL input levels and ensure the operating voltage remains within the specified 5V ± 10% range.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the CY74FCT162(H)245T series, which includes variants like the 74FCT16245T and 74FCT162245T. While sharing the same core architecture, these devices differ in output drive strength and input features. The H245 variant specifically integrates bus hold capabilities not present in the standard 245T model.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Check for direct equivalents such as the 74FCT162H245CTPVCT for faster propagation delays. Ensure any substitute maintains the 48-lead SSOP form factor and compatible electrical characteristics for seamless integration.
