Product details
Overview
CY74FCT16244ETPVCT from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit non-inverting 3-state buffer/line driver designed for high-speed memory and bus interface applications. It delivers 64 mA sink and 32 mA source output drive, supports partial-power-down via Ioff, operates at 5V ±10%, and features typical output skew <250 ps. It is used in industrial backplane driving where low ground bounce (<1.0V) and noise immunity are critical.
For engineers reviewing the CY74FCT16244ETPVCT datasheet, CY74FCT16244ETPVCT pinout, CY74FCT16244ETPVCT application, or CY74FCT16244ETPVCT equivalent, key selection criteria include output drive strength (64 mA sink), Ioff-enabled power-down protection, flow-through pinout for PCB layout simplification, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), and SSOP-48 package compatibility with high-density routing.
Technical Context
This device implements four independent 4-bit groups of non-inverting buffers, each controlled by dedicated active-low 3-state enable inputs (1OE–4OE). Its Ioff circuitry disables outputs during power-down to prevent current backflow, enabling safe hot-insertion in live systems.
The CY74FCT16244ETPVCT uses standard FCT logic architecture with TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V), edge-rate control for reduced switching noise, and flow-through pinout that aligns inputs and outputs on opposite sides of the SSOP-48 package to minimize trace crossovers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Supply | 5 V ±10% - ensures compatibility with legacy 5-V TTL and LVTTL systems without level-shifting. |
| Sink/Source Drive | 64 mA / 32 mA - enables direct driving of high-capacitance loads (e.g., >100 pF traces) and low-impedance backplanes. |
| Propagation Delay | 1.5–6.5 ns - supports high-speed data transfer up to ~150 MHz in point-to-point configurations. |
| Output Skew | <250 ps - guarantees tight timing alignment across all 16 outputs, critical for parallel bus integrity. |
| Ioff Support | Yes - blocks current flow when VCC = 0 V, protecting powered subsystems during partial system shutdown. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial environments including factory automation and telecom infrastructure. |
| ESD Rating | >2000 V HBM - provides robust handling margin during board assembly and field service. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 48-pin SSOP (O48), 300-mil body width, 0.635 mm pitch, JEDEC MO-153 compliant. Pin count and physical layout match CY74FCT16244T family variants.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A1–1A4, 2A1–2A4, 3A1–3A4, 4A1–4A4 | Data Inputs (Grouped) | Four independent 4-bit input banks; each group shares one OE signal for granular bus control. |
| 1Y1–1Y4, 2Y1–2Y4, 3Y1–3Y4, 4Y1–4Y4 | 3-State Outputs | Non-inverting buffered outputs; high-impedance state activated when corresponding OE = HIGH. |
| 1OE–4OE | Active-Low Output Enables | Per-group control allows 4-bit, 8-bit, or full 16-bit bus operation without external logic. |
| VCC (Pins 24, 48) | Power Supply | Dual VCC pins reduce supply impedance and improve noise rejection across wide bus widths. |
| GND (Pins 1, 25) | Ground Reference | Dual GND pins provide low-inductance return paths, minimizing ground bounce during simultaneous switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ioff partial-power-down | Prevents damaging back-current when VCC = 0 V, enabling safe insertion into live backplanes. |
| Edge-rate control | Reduces EMI and overshoot/undershoot, eliminating need for external series termination in many cases. |
| Flow-through pinout | Input and output pins aligned on opposing sides of SSOP-48 package, simplifying layer stack-up and reducing vias. |
| Low ground bounce | Typical VOLP <1.0 V at 5 V and 25°C - maintains signal integrity during high-current switching events. |
| TTL-compatible inputs | VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V - interoperates directly with legacy 5-V microcontrollers, FPGAs, and ASICs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY74FCT162244TPVCT | Balanced 24 mA output drivers; lower ground bounce (<0.6 V); no Ioff support. | Optimized for transmission-line driving (e.g., LVDS stubs, unterminated traces); less suitable for partial-power-down systems. | Select when minimizing undershoot on long traces is prioritized over hot-swap safety. |
| CY74FCT162H244TPVCT | Incorporates bus-hold inputs (no external pull-ups); same 24 mA drive; includes Ioff. | Eliminates floating-input risk in sparse-bus or low-activity systems; adds ~50 µA input bias per held pin. | Choose when input termination is impractical due to board space or cost constraints. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output sink current specification for CY74FCT16244ETPVCT?
The CY74FCT16244ETPVCT is rated for 64 mA maximum sink current per output pin under specified conditions (VCC = min, IOL = 64 mA, VOL ≤ 0.55 V). This value is confirmed in the "Output Drive Characteristics" table of the official datasheet and enables reliable driving of high-capacitance loads such as backplane traces or multiple TTL inputs. The CY74FCT16244ETPVCT maintains this rating across its full industrial temperature range.
Does CY74FCT16244ETPVCT support partial-power-down operation?
Yes, CY74FCT16244ETPVCT supports partial-power-down operation via its Ioff circuitry. When VCC = 0 V, the outputs are disabled and high-impedance, preventing damaging current backflow from live system buses into the unpowered device. This feature is explicitly documented in the Functional Description and Electrical Characteristics sections of the datasheet and is validated for use in hot-swap and modular system architectures.
What package type and dimensions does CY74FCT16244ETPVCT use?
CY74FCT16244ETPVCT uses a 48-pin SSOP (Shrink Small Outline Package), designated O48, with 300-mil body width and 0.635 mm lead pitch. Its mechanical drawing conforms to JEDEC MO-153, and dimensions are fully specified in TI's MTSS003D mechanical data sheet. The package includes dual VCC and GND pins to reduce supply inductance and improve noise performance.
How does the flow-through pinout of CY74FCT16244ETPVCT benefit PCB layout?
The flow-through pinout of CY74FCT16244ETPVCT places inputs and corresponding outputs on opposite sides of the SSOP-48 package (e.g., A1–A4 on left, Y1–Y4 on right), enabling straight-line trace routing with minimal layer changes or vias. This reduces crosstalk, simplifies differential pair separation, and improves signal integrity in dense 16-bit bus layouts-particularly valuable in industrial control boards where routing density and EMI resilience are critical.
What is the typical output skew specification for CY74FCT16244ETPVCT?
The typical output skew for CY74FCT16244ETPVCT is less than 250 ps, defined as the timing mismatch between any two outputs switching in the same direction within the same package. This parameter is ensured by design and verified across process/voltage/temperature corners. Low skew preserves setup/hold timing margins in parallel bus applications such as memory addressing or synchronized data capture, where simultaneous edge alignment is essential.
