DESCRIPTION:

The LVC16244A 16-bit buffer/driver is built using advanced dual metal CMOS technology. The LVC16244A is designed specifically to improve both the performance and density of 3-state memory address drivers, clock drivers, and bus-oriented receivers and transmitters. The device can be used as four 4-bit buffers, two 8-bit buffers, or one 16-bit buffer. This device provides true outputs and symmetrical active-low output-enable (OE) inputs.

All pins of this 16-bit buffer/driver can be driven from either 3.3V or 5V devices. This feature allows the use of the device as a translator in a mixed 3.3V/5V supply system.

The LVC16244A has been designed with a ±24mA output driver. This driver is capable of driving a moderate to heavy load while maintaining speed performance.

FEATURES:

• Typical tSK(o) (Output Skew) < 250ps

• ESD > 2000V per MIL-STD-883, Method 3015; > 200V using machine model (C = 200pF, R = 0)

• VCC = 3.3V ± 0.3V, Normal Range

• VCC = 2.7V to 3.6V, Extended Range

• CMOS power levels (0.4µ W typ. static)

• All inputs, outputs, and I/O are 5V tolerant

• Supports hot insertion

• Available in SSOP, TSSOP, and TVSOP packages

DRIVE FEATURES:

• High Output Drivers: ±24mA

• Reduced system switching noise

APPLICATIONS:

• 5V and 3.3V mixed voltage systems

• Data communication and telecommunication systems
