Product details
Overview
CY74FCT162646ATPVC from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit registered transceiver with balanced 24 mA output drivers, three-state D-type registers, and dual-bus bidirectional data routing controlled by DIR and OE pins. It operates at 5V ±10%, supports −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range, and delivers typical VOL < 0.55 V at 24 mA sink/source - ideal for high-speed backplane and transmission-line interfacing in telecom and industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY74FCT162646ATPVC datasheet, CY74FCT162646ATPVC pinout, CY74FCT162646ATPVC application, or CY74FCT162646ATPVC equivalent, key selection criteria include its 6.3 ns max bus-to-bus propagation delay, Ioff partial-power-down support, edge-rate-controlled outputs for noise reduction, and SSOP-56 package compatibility with legacy FCT logic families.
Technical Context
This device integrates two independent 16-bit register banks (A and B), clocked on rising edges of CLKAB/CLKBA, with multiplexed output sourcing via SAB/SBA select inputs. Its direction control (DIR) and active-low output enable (OE) jointly determine real-time or registered data flow between buses.
The CY74FCT162646ATPVC implements current-limiting resistors in 24 mA balanced drivers to suppress ground bounce (<0.6 V typical) and minimize undershoot - eliminating need for external termination in point-to-point or stubbed transmission-line topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Supply | 5 V ±10% - compatible with standard TTL/CMOS logic rails and industrial power domains |
| Propagation Delay | 6.3 ns max (bus-to-bus) - enables ≤159 MHz data throughput in transparent mode |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA balanced - reduces simultaneous switching noise and eliminates external series termination |
| Ground Bounce | <0.6 V typical at VCC = 5 V, TA = 25°C - ensures signal integrity during high-speed switching |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial control, base station, and automotive under-hood auxiliary modules |
| Ioff Support | Active at VCC = 0 V - prevents backflow current during partial power-down in mixed-voltage systems |

|---|---|---|
| 1A1–1A8, 2A1–2A8 | A-bus register inputs / B-bus outputs | Eight-bit A-side data paths; configured as inputs when DIR = LOW and OE = LOW, outputs when DIR = HIGH and OE = LOW |
| 1B1–1B8, 2B1–2B8 | B-bus register inputs / A-bus outputs | Eight-bit B-side data paths; functionally symmetric to A-bus with independent clocking and direction control |

| 1CLKBA, 2CLKBA | B-to-A register clock input | Rising-edge-triggered latch for transferring B-bus data into A-register; enables synchronous capture from B to A domain |
| 1DIR, 2DIR | Direction control input | When LOW: A-bus drives B-bus; when HIGH: B-bus drives A-bus - determines primary data flow direction per channel pair |
| 1OE, 2OE | Output enable (active LOW) | Disables all outputs to high-impedance state when HIGH; enables bidirectional transfer when LOW and DIR set |
| 1SAB, 2SAB | A-to-B output source select | Selects between real-time A-bus data (SAB = LOW) or registered A-data (SAB = HIGH) for output onto B-bus |
| 1SBA, 2SBA | B-to-A output source select | Selects between real-time B-bus data (SBA = LOW) or registered B-data (SBA = HIGH) for output onto A-bus |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit registered transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY74FCT16646ATPVC | Higher drive strength (64 mA sink / 32 mA source), higher ground bounce (~1.0 V), no output current limiting | Better suited for high-capacitance backplanes (>100 pF/load); less optimal for controlled-impedance transmission lines | Select when driving heavy capacitive loads or legacy bus structures requiring stronger drive; avoid for low-noise line driving. |
| 74FCT162646ATPACT | TSSOP-56 (240-mil width, 1.2 mm height) vs. SSOP-56 (300-mil width); identical electrical specs and pinout | Enables higher PCB density and improved thermal performance in space-constrained test equipment or portable instrumentation | Select for new designs prioritizing board area reduction and reflow-compatible packaging; requires layout revision due to footprint change. |
Compared with CY74FCT16646ATPVC, the CY74FCT162646ATPVC offers lower ground bounce and built-in termination for cleaner transmission-line signaling, while the 74FCT162646ATPACT provides identical functionality in a smaller TSSOP package - making it preferable for compact, thermally sensitive applications where SSOP footprint is prohibitive.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by CY74FCT162646ATPVC?
CY74FCT162646ATPVC does not specify a maximum clock frequency in its datasheet; instead, it guarantees 6.3 ns max propagation delay (bus-to-bus) and 5.0 ns minimum clock pulse width. Based on these, reliable operation up to approximately 159 MHz is achievable in transparent mode, assuming proper PCB layout and load conditions. The actual usable frequency depends on system-level timing margins including setup/hold and board trace delays.
Does CY74FCT162646ATPVC support hot-swap operation?
Yes, CY74FCT162646ATPVC supports hot-swap operation through its Ioff circuitry, which disables outputs and blocks current backflow when VCC = 0 V. This feature allows safe insertion or removal from a live backplane or powered system, provided that all signal pins remain within −0.5 V to +7.0 V absolute maximum ratings during the event. No external protection circuitry is required.
Can CY74FCT162646ATPVC replace CY74FCT16646ATPVC directly on the same PCB?
No, CY74FCT162646ATPVC is not a direct replacement for CY74FCT16646ATPVC on the same PCB. Although both share identical pinout, package (SSOP-56), and logic functionality, their output driver architectures differ fundamentally: CY74FCT162646ATPVC uses current-limited 24 mA balanced drivers optimized for transmission lines, whereas CY74FCT16646ATPVC uses higher-drive 64/32 mA asymmetrical drivers for heavy capacitive loads. Swapping them may cause signal integrity issues or excessive ground bounce.
What is the purpose of SAB and SBA pins on CY74FCT162646ATPVC?
The SAB (Source A-to-B) and SBA (Source B-to-A) pins on CY74FCT162646ATPVC control whether the output bus presents real-time (transparent) data or registered (latched) data. When SAB = LOW, the B-bus outputs reflect instantaneous A-bus inputs; when SAB = HIGH, the B-bus outputs reflect the last-latched A-register contents. SBA operates identically for B-to-A transfer, enabling flexible mix of buffered and registered data routing per channel pair.
Is CY74FCT162646ATPVC RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, CY74FCT162646ATPVC is RoHS compliant and lead-free. Per TI's packaging documentation, it carries a "Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br)" eco-plan designation, features CU NIPDAU lead finish, and meets JEDEC MSL Level-1 (260°C peak reflow). The part marking "FCT162646A" appears on the package surface, and full compliance documentation is available in TI's official packaging addendum dated November 2009.
