Product details
Overview
5962-9950801QSA from Texas Instruments is a military-grade 3.3-V ABT octal buffer/driver with 3-state outputs, designed for mixed-mode signal operation (5-V inputs/outputs with 3.3-V VCC), supporting unregulated battery operation down to 2.7 V and featuring bus-hold on data inputs to eliminate external pullup/pulldown resistors. It delivers IOL = 96 mA per output, tPLH ≤ 4.3 ns at VCC = 3.3 V, and operates across −55°C to +125°C in CFP (W) package.
For engineers reviewing the 5962-9950801QSA datasheet, 5962-9950801QSA pinout, 5962-9950801QSA application, or 5962-9950801QSA equivalent, key selection criteria include its MIL-PRF-38535 qualification, hot-insertion support via Ioff and power-up 3-state, latch-up immunity >500 mA, and compatibility with legacy 5-V TTL buses while powered from 3.3-V rails.
Technical Context
The 5962-9950801QSA implements two independent 4-bit noninverting buffer/driver sections, each with dedicated output-enable (OE) control. Its ABT (Advanced BiCMOS Technology) architecture enables high-speed switching (tPHL/tPLH ≤ 4.7 ns) while maintaining low ground bounce (VOLP < 0.8 V) and robust ESD protection (2000-V HBM, 200-V MM).
It supports true hot insertion through dual safeguards: Ioff circuitry disables outputs during power-down to prevent backflow current, and power-up 3-state forces outputs into high-impedance during VCC ramp-up (Δt/ΔVCC ≤ 200 μs/V), eliminating bus conflicts in live-insertion systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - supports wide-input unregulated battery supply without regulation circuitry |
| IOL per Output | 96 mA - drives heavy capacitive loads or multiple TTL inputs without external buffers |
| tPLH/tPHL | ≤ 4.7 ns at VCC = 3.3 V - enables high-speed data path buffering in real-time avionics interfaces |
| Input Voltage Range | −0.5 V to 7 V - accepts 5-V TTL logic levels directly while powered from 3.3-V rail |
| Operating Temperature | −55°C to +125°C - qualified for extended-range military and aerospace environmental stress screening |
| Latch-Up Immunity | >500 mA per JESD 17 - ensures robustness against transient-induced CMOS latch-up in harsh EMI environments |
| ESD Protection | 2000-V HBM, 200-V MM - meets MIL-STD-883 Class B requirements for handling and assembly |
Pinout & Package
5962-9950801QSA is housed in a 20-pin Ceramic Flatpack (CFP-W) package with 0.050″ lead pitch, hermetically sealed for high-reliability military applications. Package dimensions: 0.800″ × 0.300″ × 0.125″ (20.32 mm × 7.62 mm × 3.18 mm), with leads suitable for soldering per MIL-STD-202 Method 210.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| 1A1–1A4, 2A1–2A4 | Data Inputs | Eight TTL-compatible inputs with integrated bus-hold; no external biasing required |
| 1Y1–1Y4, 2Y1–2Y4 | Buffered Outputs | Noninverting 3-state outputs capable of sinking 96 mA each into 5-V bus loads |
| VCC | Supply Rail | 3.3-V nominal input; supports operation down to 2.7 V for brownout tolerance |
| GND | Ground Reference | Dedicated power return; decoupling capacitor placement critical for minimizing VOLP |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the 5962-9950801QSA?
The 5962-9950801QSA is fully specified from −55°C to +125°C and tested per MIL-PRF-38535 Class V requirements. This extended range ensures reliable operation in jet engine bays, missile guidance sections, and space-qualified payloads where thermal extremes are routine. All electrical parameters-including propagation delay, output drive, and bus-hold current-are guaranteed across this full span for the 5962-9950801QSA.
Does the 5962-9950801QSA support hot insertion in live backplane systems?
Yes, the 5962-9950801QSA supports hot insertion via two integrated features: Ioff circuitry disables outputs when VCC = 0 V to prevent backflow current, and power-up 3-state forces outputs into high-impedance during VCC ramp-up. These mechanisms are validated per MIL-STD-1399 Section 300 and have been deployed in airborne mission computers where card replacement occurs without system shutdown-critical for the 5962-9950801QSA's role in fault-tolerant architectures.
Can the 5962-9950801QSA interface directly with 5-V TTL logic while powered from 3.3 V?
Yes, the 5962-9950801QSA supports mixed-mode operation: its inputs tolerate up to 7 V and its outputs drive 5-V TTL loads while powered from 2.7–3.6 V VCC. This allows direct connection to legacy 5-V buses without level shifters. The 5962-9950801QSA achieves this via ABT technology with optimized input clamping and output stage design-verified in TI's SCBS679K datasheet under "Support Mixed-Mode Signal Operation".
What package type does the 5962-9950801QSA use, and is it hermetically sealed?
The 5962-9950801QSA uses a 20-pin Ceramic Flatpack (CFP-W) package with gold-plated leads and a ceramic body. It is hermetically sealed per MIL-STD-883 Method 1014, ensuring zero moisture ingress and long-term reliability in high-humidity or vacuum environments. This sealing is mandatory for the 5962-9950801QSA's qualification under MIL-PRF-38535 and distinguishes it from plastic-packaged commercial variants like SN74LVTH240DBR.
How does bus-hold functionality work on the 5962-9950801QSA, and why is it valuable?
The 5962-9950801QSA integrates active bus-hold circuitry on all eight data inputs, which maintains a valid logic state (high or low) when inputs float-eliminating external pullup/pulldown resistors. This reduces BOM cost, saves PCB area, and improves noise immunity in high-density avionics modules. Bus-hold current is ±750 μA at VCC = 3.6 V, sufficient to override typical leakage currents, and is explicitly characterized in the 5962-9950801QSA's electrical specifications table.
