Product details
Overview
74ALVC16244MTDX from onsemi is a low-voltage 16-bit non-inverting buffer/line driver with 3-state outputs, designed for memory and address bus driving, clock distribution, and bidirectional bus interfacing. It operates from 1.65 V to 3.6 V VCC, supports 3.6 V tolerant I/O, delivers ≤3.0 ns propagation delay at 3.3 V, and features nibble-level (4-bit) independent 3-state control via four OE inputs.
For engineers reviewing the 74ALVC16244MTDX datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include VCC operating range, 3.6 V I/O tolerance, propagation delay vs. supply voltage, 3-state enable timing, and TSSOP-48 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The 74ALVC16244MTDX implements sixteen independent CMOS buffer stages grouped into four 4-bit nibbles, each with dedicated active-low output-enable (OE1–OE4) control. Its advanced CMOS fabrication enables high-speed switching while maintaining sub-40 µA quiescent current at 3.6 V.
It supports live insertion and withdrawal via power-off high-impedance I/O and patented noise/EMI reduction circuitry. Input leakage remains ≤±5 µA and 3-state output leakage ≤±10 µA across 0–3.6 V, ensuring signal integrity in mixed-voltage systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65 V to 3.6 V - Enables interoperability with 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V logic domains without level shifters. |
| I/O Voltage Tolerance | Up to 3.6 V - Allows safe connection to higher-voltage buses or legacy 3.3 V peripherals while powered from lower VCC. |
| tPD (max) | 3.0 ns @ 3.3 V - Supports >300 MHz data rates in address/data buffering applications with tight timing margins. |
| tPZH/tPHZ (max) | 4.0 ns @ 3.3 V - Ensures fast, predictable bus turnaround in bidirectional communication protocols. |
| IOH/IOL | ±24 mA @ 3.0 V - Drives standard 50 Ω transmission lines or multiple CMOS loads without external buffers. |
| Input Capacitance | 6 pF @ 3.3 V - Minimizes capacitive loading on upstream drivers and preserves signal edge rate in high-speed routing. |

Pinout & Package
74ALVC16244MTDX is housed in a 48-pin Thin Shrink Small Outline Package (TSSOP), case 948BQ, measuring 12.5 mm × 6.1 mm with 0.5 mm pitch. The package is Pb-free and RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OEn (OE1–OE4) | Active-low 3-state enable input per nibble | Four independent controls allow selective gating of I/O groups (I0–I3/O0–O3, etc.), enabling partial bus isolation without full device disable. |
| I0–I15 | Buffer input terminals | Non-inverting inputs accept 1.65–3.6 V logic levels; tolerate up to 3.6 V regardless of VCC, simplifying mixed-supply interface design. |
| O0–O15 | Buffer output terminals | 3-state outputs drive buses directly; enter high-Z when corresponding OEn = HIGH, preventing contention during bus arbitration. |
| NC | No-connect terminal | Internally unconnected; must remain unpopulated and unconnected on PCB to avoid parasitic coupling or EMI. |
| VCC, GND | Power supply and ground pins | Multiple VCC/GND pairs distributed across package reduce simultaneous switching noise and improve power integrity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Nibble-level 3-state control | Four independent OE inputs enable granular bus partitioning-e.g., isolate memory address nibbles while keeping data lines active. |
| 3.6 V tolerant I/O | Eliminates need for external level translators when interfacing with 3.3 V peripherals while operating from 1.8 V VCC, reducing BOM count and layout area. |
| Power-off high-impedance I/O | Inputs and outputs default to high-Z during power-up/down sequences, preventing back-driving or latch-up in hot-swap or modular systems. |
| Patented noise/EMI reduction | Integrated slew-rate control and internal filtering suppress switching noise, easing EMC compliance in dense digital systems without added ferrites or shielding. |
| JEDEC JED98 latch-up immunity | Guarantees robust operation under transient overvoltage conditions common in industrial environments, eliminating need for external protection circuits. |

FAQ
What is the minimum VCC required for functional operation of the 74ALVC16244MTDX?
The 74ALVC16244MTDX requires a minimum VCC of 1.65 V for guaranteed operation across all specified parameters, including propagation delay, output drive strength, and input threshold levels. Below this voltage, DC characteristics such as VIL and VOH are not assured, and timing performance degrades significantly. The 74ALVC16244MTDX is not characterized for operation below 1.65 V.
Can the 74ALVC16244MTDX be used to interface a 1.8 V FPGA with a 3.3 V ADC?
Yes-the 74ALVC16244MTDX supports 3.6 V tolerant inputs and outputs, allowing direct connection from a 1.8 V VCC-powered 74ALVC16244MTDX to 3.3 V logic levels without level shifters. Its 1.65–3.6 V VCC range and guaranteed VIH/VIL thresholds at 1.8 V ensure reliable signal translation in both directions for control and status lines.
How does the nibble-level 3-state control of the 74ALVC16244MTDX improve system design?
The 74ALVC16244MTDX provides four independent OE inputs (OE1–OE4), each controlling a 4-bit group (I0–I3/O0–O3, etc.). This enables selective bus segmentation-for example, disabling unused memory address ranges while keeping data lines active-reducing dynamic power, minimizing contention risk, and simplifying timing closure in multi-master systems.
Is the 74ALVC16244MTDX suitable for hot-swap applications?
Yes-the 74ALVC16244MTDX supports live insertion and withdrawal per its datasheet. Its power-off high-impedance inputs and outputs prevent back-driving during power sequencing, and its >2000 V HBM ESD rating and JEDEC JED98 latch-up immunity ensure robustness during repeated hot-plug events in modular backplane or blade-server systems.
What is the maximum output drive capability of the 74ALVC16244MTDX at 2.5 V VCC?
At 2.5 V VCC, the 74ALVC16244MTDX guarantees ±12 mA output drive (IOH/IOL) while maintaining VOL ≤ 0.4 V and VOH ≥ 2.2 V. This supports driving two standard CMOS loads (CL = 50 pF) or one 50 Ω transmission line with minimal signal degradation, as verified in the AC Electrical Characteristics table of the 74ALVC16244MTDX datasheet.
