74LVC16344APAG

Overview

The IDT 74LVC16344APAG is a 2:4 fanout buffer and clock distribution circuit manufactured by Integrated Device Technology Inc. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.3V to 3.6V and features four independent circuits with 3-state outputs. The device utilizes the 74LVC logic series and is housed in a 56-TSSOP surface-mount package. Designed for low-power applications, it supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. This component functions as a non-differential clock buffer intended for signal distribution tasks.

Feature Summary

• 2:4 Fanout Buffer Configuration
• 3-State Output Capability
• 56-TSSOP Surface Mount Package

Applications

• Clock signal distribution
• Fanout buffering in digital systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation matches Integrated Device Technology Inc or Renesas Electronics, as IDT was acquired. Confirm the specific ordering suffix 'PAG' corresponds to the bulk packaging type indicated in the source data. Ensure the 56-pin TSSOP footprint aligns with the target PCB layout requirements before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 2-to-4 fanout ratio is required for clock signals within the 2.3V to 3.6V voltage domain. The 56-TSSOP package is suitable for space-constrained surface-mount designs. Verify that the 3-state output functionality meets the bus isolation needs of the application circuit.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 74LVC logic family, which provides high-speed CMOS performance with low power consumption. The 74LVC16344A variant specifically addresses clock distribution needs, differing from standard line drivers by its internal 2:4 splitting architecture rather than simple passthrough buffering.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct equivalents from Renesas Electronics following the IDT acquisition. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications against other 56-pin 2:4 fanout buffers in the 74LVC series.
