Frequently Asked Questions
What is the SN74ALS29821NT and what does it do?
The SN74ALS29821NT is a 10-bit bus interface flip-flop IC from Texas Instruments in the ALS (Advanced Low-power Schottky) logic family. It features enable-low active control, unidirectional data flow, and supports up to 300 pF load capacitance. It is housed in a 24-pin DIP package and is designed for high-drive bus interface applications.
What is the significance of the power-off disable outputs feature?
The power-off disable outputs feature allows the SN74ALS29821NT outputs to go into a high-impedance state when the device is powered off. This enables live board insertion and removal without causing bus contention or data corruption, making it essential for hot-swap designs in backplane systems and modular embedded applications.
What are typical applications for the SN74ALS29821NT?
Typical applications include microprocessor address and data bus drivers, backplane buffer circuits, memory expansion interfaces, and industrial control systems. The device is well-suited for any design requiring reliable 10-bit unidirectional bus buffering with tri-state control and support for live insertion.
What package does the SN74ALS29821NT come in and is it RoHS compliant?
The SN74ALS29821NT is available in a 24-pin Dual-In-Line (PDIP-T24) through-hole package, suitable for breadboard and PCB prototyping. It is Pb-free (RoHS compliant) as indicated by its JESD-609 code e4 and Pbfree Code: Yes, making it suitable for modern environmentally-conscious designs.
