Texas Instruments SN74ABT16501 18-Bit Universal Bus Transceivers With 3-State Outputs SN74ABT16501DLG4

The SN74ABT16501 is an 18-bit universal bus transceiver designed for high-speed data transfer with 3-state outputs. It features a combination of D-type latches and D-type flip-flops, allowing operation in transparent, latched, or clocked modes. Data flow is controlled by output-enable, latch-enable, and clock inputs, facilitating bidirectional data transfer between two buses. This device is characterized for operation within a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C and is built using Texas Instruments' EPIC-II BiCMOS technology, which significantly reduces power dissipation. The transceiver includes ESD protection exceeding 2000 V per MIL-STD-883 and latch-up performance exceeding 500 mA per JEDEC Standard JESD-17. The flow-through architecture of the package optimizes PCB layout, and it is available in various package options, including plastic and ceramic formats. Engineers considering this product should note its suitability for applications requiring robust data handling and efficient power management in a compact form factor.
