Renesas Electronics Corporation Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers 74FCT162H245ATPVG

The 74FCT162H245ATPVG is a fast CMOS 16-bit bidirectional transceiver designed for industrial applications. It operates within an industrial temperature range of -40¬8C to +85¬8C and utilizes 0.5-micron CMOS technology, providing a high-speed, low-power alternative to ABT functions. The device features a typical output skew of less than 250 ps and low input/output leakage of up to 1 ¬µA maximum. This transceiver supports synchronous communication between two buses, allowing it to function as either two independent 8-bit transceivers or one 16-bit transceiver, controlled by direction and output enable pins. The integrated "Bus Hold" feature retains the last active bus state during high impedance, eliminating the need for external pull-up resistors. The device is available in both SSOP and TSSOP packages, making it suitable for various design requirements. Engineers considering this product will find it beneficial for applications requiring reliable data transfer with minimal power consumption and robust noise margins.
