The 'ABT16853 dual 8-bit to 9-bit parity transceivers are designed
for communication between data buses. When data is transmitted from
the A bus to the B bus, a parity bit is generated. When data is
transmitted from the B bus to the A bus, with its corresponding
parity bit, the open-collector parity-error (
) output indicates whether or not
an error in the B data has occurred. The output-enable (
and
) inputs can be used to disable the
device so that the buses are effectively isolated. The 'ABT16853
provide true data at the outputs.
A 9-bit parity generator/checker generates a parity-odd (PARITY)
output and monitors the parity of the I/O ports with the
flag. The parity-error output can
be passed, sampled, stored, or cleared from the latch using the
latch-enable (
) and clear
(
) control
inputs. When both
and
are low, data is transferred from
the A bus to the B bus, and inverted parity is generated. Inverted
parity is a forced error condition that gives the designer more
system diagnostic capability.
To ensure the high-impedance state during power up or power down,
should be tied
to VCC through a pullup resistor; the minimum value of the
resistor is determined by the current-sinking capability of the
driver.
The SN54ABT16853 is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The SN74ABT16853 is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
