Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TPVG' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm package type and material specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints and soldering profiles. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements for your assembly process before procurement.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when requiring high-drive current capabilities and low skew for 16-bit wide buses. It serves as a direct replacement for older ABT logic families while offering improved speed and lower power consumption. Consider the 48-pin SSOP package constraints regarding board space and thermal dissipation during design integration.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the IDT 74FCT166244 family of fast CMOS bus drivers. The FCT series utilizes 0.5-micron CMOS technology to deliver high performance comparable to bipolar devices with significantly reduced power usage. The 166244 variant specifically offers quad 4-bit configuration suitable for parallel data transmission applications.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with IDT74FCT16244CTPVG or IDT74FCT166244ATPVG for pin-compatible alternatives. Verify that substitute parts maintain identical drive strength and propagation delay characteristics to ensure signal integrity in high-speed designs.
