74FCT163373APAG8

Latches Overview

The IDT 74FCT163373APAG8 is a 16-bit high-speed, low-power transparent D-type latch manufactured by Renesas Electronics under the FCT logic series. It features two independent 8-bit channels with tri-state outputs housed in a 48-TSSOP package. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2.3V to 3.6V and supports an industrial temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. Key electrical parameters include a typical propagation delay of 1.5ns, output drive currents of 8mA (high) and 24mA (low), and compliance with RoHS standards.

Latches Feature Summary

• Transparent data storage capability for temporary holding of digital information
• Tri-state outputs allowing bus line sharing and system flexibility
• CMOS technology providing high-speed operation with low power consumption

Latches Applications

• Memory address latching in computing systems
• I/O port buffering and interface control
• Bus driver implementations in mixed voltage environments

Latches Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors as this part may be subject to obsolescence notices. Confirm package integrity upon receipt, as TSSOP components are sensitive to mechanical stress during handling. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints and verify that the specific suffix matches design requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Latches Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring 16-bit data retention with tri-state bus control capabilities. It is suitable for applications needing translation between 3.3V and 5V logic levels due to its input compatibility. Consider the 48-TSSOP package constraints and ensure thermal management aligns with the specified industrial operating temperature range for reliable long-term performance.

Latches Part Context

This component belongs to the 74FCT163373 family of fast CMOS logic devices. Originally developed by Integrated Device Technology (IDT), production and support have transitioned to Renesas Electronics following corporate acquisitions. The device serves as a modern replacement for older ABT-series functions, offering improved speed and lower power dissipation while maintaining pin-out compatibility for legacy system upgrades.

Latches Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the IDT74FCT163373ATPAG8 and the Renesas CD74FCT163373AMT. Verify functional equivalence regarding voltage ranges and output drive strengths before swapping. Note that some variants may differ in packaging or lead-free status, requiring re-verification of assembly specifications.
