description

The 'ABT32373 is a 32-bit (quad 8-bit) transceiver with D-type latches and 3-state outputs designed specifically for driving highly capacitive or relatively low-impedance loads. It is particularly suitable for implementing buffer registers, I/O ports, bidirectional bus drivers, and working registers. The device can be used as four 8-bit transceivers, two 16-bit transceivers, or one 32-bit transceiver. It allows data transmission from the A bus to the B bus or from the B bus to the A bus depending upon the logic level at the output-enable inputs.

The output-enable ( or OEBA) inputs do not affect internal operations of the latch. Old data can be retained or new data can be entered while the outputs are in the high-impedance state.

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 (A to B). OE should be tied to GND through a pulldown resistor; the minimum value of the resistor is determined by the current-sourcing capability of the driver (B to A).

Active bus-hold circuitry is provided to hold unused or floating inputs at a valid logic level.

The SN54ABT32373 is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The SN74ABT32373 is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
