Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'GX' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm pinout and electrical characteristics, as suffixes often denote package variations or environmental compliance. Confirm availability status directly with authorized distributors, as this component may be subject to lifecycle changes or obsolescence notices from Fairchild Semiconductor or its successor entities.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing interfaces that require seamless translation between LVTTL and GTLP domains without external level shifters. Ensure the target application supports the specified 3.15V to 3.45V operating voltage range. Verify that the 114-FBGA package footprint aligns with the PCB layout constraints and thermal requirements of the final assembly design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the family of universal bus transceivers designed for high-density digital systems. It addresses the need for versatile signaling standards in complex electronic environments where multiple voltage domains coexist. The 36-bit width allows for parallel data handling, reducing pin count compared to lower-width alternatives while maintaining high throughput capabilities.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official substitution guides for equivalent 36-bit LVTTL/GTLP transceivers. Verify functional compatibility regarding voltage ranges and package dimensions before replacing.
