74FCT163245CPAG8

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The 74FCT163245CPAG8 is a 16-bit bus transceiver manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.7V to 3.6V and supports bidirectional data transfer across two independent 8-bit channels. The device utilizes 0.5 micron CMOS technology and features three-state outputs. Key electrical specifications include a typical output skew (tSK(o)) of less than 250ps and an ESD protection rating exceeding 2000V per MIL-STD-883, Method 3015. It is housed in a 48-TFSOP package with a width of 0.240 inches (6.10mm) and is designed for surface mount installation.
