Widebus is a trademark of Texas Instruments Incorporated.
The 'ALVTH16543 are 16-bit registered transceivers designed for
2.5-V or 3.3-V VCC operation, but with the capability to
provide a TTL interface to a 5-V system environment. These devices
can be used as two 8-bit transceivers or one 16-bit transceiver.
Separate latch-enable (
or
),
output-enable (
or
), and chip-enable (
or
) inputs are provided for each
register to permit independent control in either direction of data
flow.
The A-to-B enable (
)
input must be low to enter data from A or to output data from B. If
is low and
is low, the A-to-B latches are
transparent; a subsequent low-to-high transition of
puts the A latches in the storage
mode. With
and
both low, the 3-state B outputs
are active and reflect the data present at the output of the A
latches. Data flow from B to A is similar but uses the
,
, and
inputs.
Active bus-hold circuitry is provided to hold unused or floating data inputs at a valid logic level.
When VCC is between 0 and 1.2 V, the device is in the
high-impedance state during power up or power down. However, to
ensure the high-impedance state above 1.2 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.
The SN74ALVTH16543 is available in TI's thin very small-outline package (DGV), which provides the same I/O pin count and functionality of standard Widebus packages in less than half the printed circuit board area.
The SN54ALVTH16543 is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The SN74ALVTH16543 is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
