What are the key features of 74FCT162245CTPACT?

  • 16-bit bidirectional operation with common direction and output-enable controls simplifies wide data bus interface logic
  • 24 mA output sink current drives backplane and heavily loaded bus lines without external buffers
  • FCT logic family offers CMOS low power with TTL-compatible input thresholds for mixed 3.3 V / 5 V board interfacing

What is 74FCT162245CTPACT used for?

74FCT162245CTPACT is used as a data bus buffer and level interface between CPUs, FPGAs, and memory subsystems in workstation, server, and industrial computing boards. Its 16-bit width and 3-state outputs allow multiple transceivers to share a common bus without conflict, supporting VMEbus, PCI, and custom parallel backplane architectures. The bidirectional direction control enables half-duplex data transfers between host processors and peripheral devices in embedded systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the output drive strength of 74FCT162245CTPACT compare to standard 74LVC245 for driving a 16-bit backplane bus?

The 74FCT162245CTPACT sources and sinks 24 mA per output, compared to the 32 mA sink of 74LVC245 but with FCT's faster propagation delay typically under 5 ns at 3.3 V. On a backplane with 10 to 20 card loads, each presenting roughly 10 pF and 50 Ω termination, the FCT device maintains signal integrity across the full 16-bit bus width with less undershoot than slower CMOS variants, making it preferable in high-speed parallel memory interfaces.

Can 74FCT162245CTPACT interface between 5 V TTL and 3.3 V CMOS logic systems?

Yes. The FCT logic family accepts 5 V tolerant inputs (VIH minimum 2.0 V, TTL compatible) while operating from a 3.3 V VCC supply, making it a direct interface between 5 V TTL-level bus drivers and 3.3 V CMOS FPGAs or ASICs. The 3-state outputs swing between GND and 3.3 V, so the receiving 3.3 V logic sees valid logic levels. No level-shifting voltage dividers are needed, saving two resistors per signal line on 16-bit interfaces.

What is the function of the output-enable and direction pins on 74FCT162245CTPACT, and how are they typically controlled?

The device has two active-low output-enable pins (OE1 and OE2) and one direction pin (DIR) that control all 16 bits together as a common control bus transceiver. When DIR is high, data flows from the B port to the A port; when DIR is low, data flows from A to B. An FPGA GPIO or a 74FCT logic gate drives these control pins, enabling the entire 16-bit bus to switch direction in a single clock cycle with approximately 4 ns propagation delay from the control input to the first valid output.

How does the 48-pin SSOP package of 74FCT162245CTPACT compare to TSSOP for PCB routing of a 16-bit bus?

The 48-pin SSOP package has a 0.635 mm pin pitch, giving a body length of approximately 17.8 mm and width of 7.5 mm. The TSSOP-48 alternative uses a finer 0.5 mm pitch with a smaller 12.5 mm × 6.1 mm footprint, saving about 40% PCB area. For boards with via-in-pad or blind-via technology, TSSOP is preferred; for standard two-layer boards with 0.2 mm minimum trace widths, the wider SSOP pitch is easier to fan out without impedance violations.
