The 'ACT16640 are inverting 16-bit transceivers designed for asynchronous communication between data buses.
These devices can be used as two 8-bit transceivers or one 16-bit
transceiver. They allow data transmission from the A bus to the B bus
or from the B bus to the A bus, depending on the logic level at the
direction-control (1DIR and 2DIR) inputs. The output-enable (1
and 2
) inputs can be used to disable the
device so that the buses are effectively isolated.
The 74ACT16640 is packaged in TI's shrink small-outline package, which provides twice the I/O pin count and functionality of standard small-outline packages in the same printed-circuit-board area.
The 54ACT16640 is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The 74ACT16640 is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
