Product details
Overview
CY74FCT16240ATPVC from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit non-inverting three-state buffer/line driver optimized for high-speed memory and bus interface applications. It features 64 mA sink / 32 mA source drive capability, <4.8 ns propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL), Ioff partial-power-down support, and operates at 5V ±10% over –40°C to +85°C. It drives high-capacitance loads and low-impedance backplanes in industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY74FCT16240ATPVC datasheet, CY74FCT16240ATPVC pinout, CY74FCT16240ATPVC application, or CY74FCT16240ATPVC equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SSOP-48 package details, functional role in bus buffering, and validated alternative options for industrial timing-critical designs.
Technical Context
The CY74FCT16240ATPVC implements dual 8-bit non-inverting buffers with independent active-low three-state enable controls (1OE, 2OE, 3OE, 4OE), enabling flexible 4-/8-/16-bit bus segmentation. Its output drivers are asymmetrical-optimized for higher sink current (64 mA) than source (32 mA)-to suppress ground bounce in heavy capacitive loading scenarios.
It integrates edge-rate control circuitry to reduce switching noise and ensures typical output skew <250 ps across all 16 outputs. The Ioff feature disables outputs and blocks current backflow when VCC = 0 V, supporting hot-insertion and partial-power-down system architectures.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by CY74FCT16240ATPVC?
CY74FCT16240ATPVC does not specify a maximum clock frequency directly, but its 4.8 ns maximum propagation delay supports reliable operation in bus systems with cycle times ≥9.6 ns - corresponding to effective data rates up to ~104 MHz for single-data-rate interfaces. System-level timing must account for board trace delays and receiver setup/hold requirements, but the device itself is rated for use in 200 MHz-class backplane applications when properly terminated and routed.
Does CY74FCT16240ATPVC support 3.3-V input logic levels?
Yes, CY74FCT16240ATPVC accepts 3.3-V TTL-compatible inputs: VIH is specified at 2.0 V minimum and VIL at 0.8 V maximum, well within 3.3-V logic HIGH/LOW thresholds. It is commonly used to interface 3.3-V FPGAs or microcontrollers to 5-V buses without level shifters - provided the 5-V VCC rail is present and stable during operation.
Is CY74FCT16240ATPVC pin-compatible with CY74FCT162240ATPVC?
Yes, CY74FCT16240ATPVC and CY74FCT162240ATPVC share identical 48-pin SSOP packaging, pinout, and functional assignment - including all input, output, enable, power, and ground terminals. However, their output driver characteristics differ: CY74FCT16240ATPVC provides asymmetrical 64/32 mA drive, while CY74FCT162240ATPVC offers symmetrical 24 mA drive with integrated current-limiting resistors.
What is the purpose of the Ioff feature in CY74FCT16240ATPVC?
The Ioff feature in CY74FCT16240ATPVC disables all outputs and blocks current flow when VCC = 0 V, preventing damaging back-current from live buses into unpowered sections of a system. This enables safe hot-insertion of daughter cards and supports partial-power-down modes in modular industrial controllers - a key requirement for systems with staggered power sequencing or redundant power domains.
Can CY74FCT16240ATPVC be used in place of SN74FCT16240ATPVCT?
Yes, CY74FCT16240ATPVC and SN74FCT16240ATPVCT are functionally and electrically identical - same datasheet specifications, pinout, package (SSOP-48), temperature range, and Ioff behavior. The distinction lies only in branding (Cypress vs. TI legacy marking) and orderable part number; both are manufactured by TI and qualify as direct replacements in existing designs or new builds.
