IDT74FCT163827C

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. Vcc terminals.
3. Input terminals.
4. Outputs and I/O terminals.

The IDT74FCT163827C 20-bit buffer is built using advanced dual metal CMOS technology. These 20-bit bus drivers provide high-performance bus interface buffering for wide data/address paths or busses carrying parity. Two pairs of NAND-ed output enable controls offer maximum control flexibility and are organized to operate the device as two 10-bit buffers or one 20-bit buffer. Flow-through organization of signal pins simplifies layout. All inputs are designed with hysteresis for improved noise margin. The FCT163827 has series current limiting resistors. This offers low ground bounce, minimal undershoot, and controlled output fall times, reducing the need for external series terminating resistors.

The inputs of the IDT74FCT163827C can be driven from either 3.3V or 5V devices. This feature allows the use of these devices as translators in a mixed 3.3V/5V supply system.
