These 16-bit buffers/drivers are designed specifically for low-voltage (3.3-V) VCC operation, but with the capability to provide a TTL interface to a 5-V system environment.
The 'LVTH162240 are designed specifically to improve both the performance and density of 3-state memory address drivers, clock drivers, and bus-oriented receivers and transmitters.
The devices can be used as four 4-bit buffers, two 8-bit buffers,
or one 16-bit buffer. The devices provide inverting outputs and
symmetrical active-low output-enable (
) inputs.
The outputs, which are designed to source or sink up to 12 mA,
include equivalent 22-
series resistors to reduce overshoot and undershoot.
When VCC is between 0 and 1.5 V, the device is in the
high-impedance state during power up or power down. However, to
ensure the high-impedance state above 1.5 V,
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.
Active bus-hold circuitry is provided to hold unused or floating data inputs at a valid logic level.
The SN54LVTH162240 is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The SN74LVTH162240 is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
