IDT74FCT166244CT

NOTES:
1. Stresses greater than those listed under ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect reliability.
2. All device terminals except FCT162XXX Output and I/O terminals.
3. Output and I/O terminals for FCT162XXX.

The IDT74FCT166244CT 16-Bit Buffer/Line Driver is for bus interface or signal buffering applications requiring high speed and low power dissipation. These devices have a flow through pin organization, and shrink packaging to simplify board layout. All inputs are designed with hysteresis for improved noise margin. The three-state controls allow independent 4-bit, 8-bit or combined 16- bit operation. These parts are plug in replacements for ABT16244 where higher speed, lower noise or lower power dissipation levels are desired.

The IDT74FCT166244CT is suited for very low noise, point-to-point driving where there is a single receiver, or a very light lumped load (<100pF). The buffers are designed to limit the output current to levels which will avoid noise and ringing on the signal lines without using external series terminating resistors.
