Product details
Overview
CY74FCT16244TPACT from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit non-inverting three-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 to drive high-capacitance loads and low-impedance backplanes in industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY74FCT16244TPACT datasheet, CY74FCT16244TPACT pinout, CY74FCT16244TPACT application, or CY74FCT16244TPACT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 6.5 ns max propagation delay, TSSOP-48 package with 0.5 mm pitch, Ioff-enabled power-down protection, and compatibility with TTL-level inputs driving CMOS loads.
Technical Context
This device implements four independent 4-bit groups of non-inverting buffers, each with dedicated active-low three-state enable (OE) inputs enabling flexible 4-bit, 8-bit, or full 16-bit bus control. Its flow-through pinout simplifies PCB layout and reduces trace crosstalk.
The Ioff circuitry ensures outputs are disabled and high-impedance when VCC = 0 V, preventing current backflow during partial power-down. Edge-rate control circuitry limits slew rate to suppress switching noise and ground bounce-typical VOLP <1.0 V at VCC = 5 V and TA = 25 °C.
Key Specifications

| VCC Supply | 5 V ±10% - compatible with standard TTL/CMOS logic rails and industrial 5 V systems |
| Propagation Delay | Max 6.5 ns - enables reliable operation in high-speed address/data bus timing budgets |
| Output Drive | 64 mA sink / 32 mA source - sufficient to drive heavy capacitive loads (e.g., >100 pF) and unterminated backplanes |
| Ioff Support | Yes - prevents damaging back-current during hot-insertion or partial system power-down |
| Operating Temp | –40 °C to +85 °C - qualified for industrial ambient environments without derating |
| Package | TSSOP-48 (DGG), 0.5 mm pitch - surface-mount, space-efficient, JEDEC MO-153 compliant |
| ESD Rating | >2000 V HBM - robust handling in manufacturing and field service environments |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY74FCT162244TPACT | Balanced 24 mA output drive; includes current-limiting resistors; lower ground bounce (VOLP <0.6 V) | Optimized for transmission-line driving with reduced undershoot; not rated for 64 mA sink loads | Select when driving controlled-impedance traces or minimizing EMI is prioritized over maximum drive strength |
| CY74FCT162H244TPACT | Includes bus-hold circuitry on all inputs; eliminates need for external pull-up/down resistors | Suitable for floating-bus or hot-plug scenarios where input state retention is required; same 24 mA drive as 162244T | Select when managing unconnected or intermittently connected data lines - e.g., modular I/O expansion slots |
Compared with CY74FCT162244TPACT and CY74FCT162H244TPACT, the CY74FCT16244TPACT provides highest sink current (64 mA) and is uniquely suited for driving heavy capacitive or low-impedance loads without external termination, while lacking bus-hold or balanced drive features.

FAQ
What is the maximum propagation delay for CY74FCT16244TPACT?
The maximum propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL) for CY74FCT16244TPACT is 6.5 ns over the full industrial temperature range (–40 °C to +85 °C) and VCC = 4.5 V to 5.5 V. This value is specified in the "Switching Characteristics" table of the official Texas Instruments datasheet (Document #: 38-00396-C). The CY74FCT16244TPACT achieves this timing using optimized FCT logic architecture with edge-rate control, making it suitable for sub-100 MHz bus applications.
Does CY74FCT16244TPACT support partial power-down operation?
Yes, CY74FCT16244TPACT supports partial power-down operation via its Ioff circuitry. When VCC = 0 V, the outputs enter a high-impedance state and leakage current is limited to ±1 µA (IOFF), preventing damaging current backflow from live buses into a powered-down device. This feature is fully characterized and guaranteed per the datasheet's "Electrical Characteristics" section and is critical for hot-swap and mixed-power-domain systems.
What package type and dimensions does CY74FCT16244TPACT use?
CY74FCT16244TPACT uses a 48-pin Thin Shrink Small-Outline Package (TSSOP), TI part number DGG0048A, with 0.5 mm lead pitch, 12.6 mm × 6.2 mm body size, and 1.2 mm maximum height. It complies with JEDEC MO-153 and includes dual VCC (pins 24, 48) and dual GND (pins 1, 25) for improved power integrity. Land pattern and stencil design guidelines are provided in TI's mechanical drawing MTSS003D.
Can CY74FCT16244TPACT drive a 100 pF load reliably?
Yes, CY74FCT16244TPACT is specifically designed to drive high-capacitance loads, including ≥100 pF. Its 64 mA sink and 32 mA source output drive, combined with edge-rate control, ensure fast, clean transitions even into heavy capacitive loads. The datasheet confirms typical VOLP <1.0 V at VCC = 5 V and TA = 25 °C - a key indicator of stable performance under capacitive loading - and lists it as "ideally suited for driving high-capacitance loads and low-impedance backplanes."
Is CY74FCT16244TPACT pin-compatible with CY74FCT162244TPACT?
No, CY74FCT16244TPACT is not pin-compatible with CY74FCT162244TPACT. Although both share identical TSSOP-48 packaging and pin count, their internal output driver structures differ: CY74FCT16244TPACT uses asymmetrical (64 mA sink / 32 mA source) drivers, while CY74FCT162244TPACT uses symmetrical 24 mA drivers with integrated current-limiting resistors. Pin functions match (same A/Y/OE mapping), but electrical behavior and drive capability are not interchangeable without board-level validation.
