Product details
Overview
74FCT162827CTPACT from Texas Instruments is a 20-bit non-inverting three-state buffer/line driver with balanced 24 mA output drivers, Ioff partial-power-down support, and 4.2 ns typical propagation delay (A to Y, C-load = 50 pF). It operates at 5V ±10% across −40°C to +85°C and is optimized for low-noise transmission-line driving in high-speed digital backplanes.
For engineers reviewing the 74FCT162827CTPACT datasheet, 74FCT162827CTPACT pinout, 74FCT162827CTPACT application, or 74FCT162827CTPACT equivalent, key selection criteria include output drive symmetry (24 mA sink/source), ground bounce performance (<0.6 V VOLP), output skew (<0.5 ns), and TSSOP-56 package compatibility with dense PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device implements dual 10-bit buffered paths, each controlled by a pair of NANDed active-low output-enable inputs (OE1/OE2), enabling flexible channel partitioning. Its Ioff circuitry actively disables outputs during power-down, preventing reverse current flow when VCC = 0 V.
The 74FCT162827CTPACT integrates on-die current-limiting resistors in all 20 outputs, eliminating need for external series termination while minimizing undershoot and ground bounce-critical for clean signal integrity on controlled-impedance traces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Supply | 5 V ±10% - compatible with standard TTL/CMOS logic rails; no level-shifting required |
| Propagation Delay | 4.2 ns max (A→Y, CL=50 pF) - supports >200 MHz data rates in point-to-point or stubbed bus topologies |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA balanced - enables matched rise/fall times and reduced EMI vs. asymmetrical drivers |
| Ground Bounce (VOLP) | <0.6 V at VCC=5 V, TA=25°C - ensures stable reference plane behavior during simultaneous switching |
| Output Skew | <0.5 ns - maintains timing alignment across all 20 outputs for parallel data path integrity |
| Ioff Current | ±1 µA at VCC=0 V - prevents backflow damage during hot-insertion or partial system power-down |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded control and communications equipment |
Pinout & Package
74FCT162827CTPACT is housed in a 56-lead Thin Shrunk Small Outline Package (TSSOP), 240-mil body width, 0.5 mm pitch, 1.2 mm max height (JEDEC MO-153 compliant). Pin 1 marked via corner chamfer; seating plane defined per JEDEC MS-012.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A1–1A10, 2A1–2A10 | Data Inputs | 20 independent CMOS-compatible inputs; accept TTL/CMOS logic levels (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2.0 V) |
| 1Y1–1Y10, 2Y1–2Y10 | Three-State Outputs | 20 buffered, current-limited outputs; high-impedance state enabled when OE1=OE2=HIGH |
| 1OE1, 1OE2, 2OE1, 2OE2 | Active-Low Output Enables | NAND logic: both OE inputs must be LOW to enable corresponding 10-bit group; enables split-bus control |
| VCC (Pins 25, 36, 48) | Power Supply | Three distributed VCC pins reduce supply impedance and improve noise immunity across wide die |
| GND (Pins 11, 12, 24, 35, 47, 56) | Ground Reference | Six dedicated GND pins minimize ground bounce and provide low-inductance return paths for all outputs |

FAQ
What is the maximum clock/data rate supported by the 74FCT162827CTPACT?
The 74FCT162827CTPACT supports reliable operation up to 200+ MHz in point-to-point configurations, based on its 4.2 ns max propagation delay (CL = 50 pF) and <0.5 ns output skew. Actual achievable rate depends on trace length, loading, and termination; for 300 pF loads, delay increases to 10.0 ns, limiting practical use to ~100 MHz in heavily loaded buses. The 74FCT162827CTPACT's balanced ±24 mA drive ensures clean edges even under these conditions.
Does the 74FCT162827CTPACT require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its OE inputs?
No, the 74FCT162827CTPACT does not require external biasing on OE inputs. Its input thresholds (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2.0 V) and hysteresis (100 mV) ensure noise-immune switching directly from TTL or CMOS logic outputs. Unused OE pins should be tied to GND or VCC per datasheet guidance, but no pull resistors are needed for functional operation. This applies identically to all OE pins on the 74FCT162827CTPACT.
Can the 74FCT162827CTPACT be used in hot-swap applications?
Yes-the 74FCT162827CTPACT includes Ioff circuitry that disables outputs and limits reverse current to ±1 µA when VCC = 0 V, making it suitable for hot-swap I/O expansion modules. When a powered card is inserted into a live backplane, the 74FCT162827CTPACT prevents damaging current flow from other powered devices through its I/O pins. This feature is fully specified over −40°C to +85°C and requires no external components to implement.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the 74FCT162827CTPACT in its TSSOP-56 package?
The 74FCT162827CTPACT in the TSSOP-56 (DGG) package has a typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 56°C/W under standard JEDEC JESD51-2 PCB conditions (2-layer board, 1 in² copper pad). Maximum power dissipation is limited to 1.0 W per absolute maximum ratings; under typical 20-bit toggle conditions at 10 MHz, total ICC remains below 5.5 mA, resulting in <28 mW dissipation-well within safe thermal margins without heatsinking.
How does the 74FCT162827CTPACT differ from the CY74FCT16827T series?
The 74FCT162827CTPACT uses balanced ±24 mA output drivers with integrated current-limiting resistors, yielding lower ground bounce (<0.6 V) and reduced need for external termination. In contrast, the CY74FCT16827T offers asymmetric 64 mA sink / 32 mA source drive, targeting high-capacitance backplanes. Both share pinout, Ioff, and temperature range-but only the 74FCT162827CTPACT is optimized for transmission-line signaling with matched edge rates and minimal undershoot.
