Product details
Overview
CY74FCT543ATQCT from Texas Instruments is an 8-bit latched registered transceiver with 3-state outputs, designed for bidirectional data flow control in TTL-compatible bus systems. It features separate A-to-B and B-to-A latch-enable (LEAB/LEBA) and output-enable (OEAB/OEBA) inputs, 64-mA sink / 32-mA source drive strength, and operates from 4.75 V to 5.25 V across –40°C to 85°C.
For engineers reviewing the CY74FCT543ATQCT datasheet, CY74FCT543ATQCT pinout, CY74FCT543ATQCT application, or CY74FCT543ATQCT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 6.5-ns max propagation delay, Ioff partial-power-down support, edge-rate controlled outputs for noise reduction, and SSOP-24 package compatibility with legacy FCT logic families.
Technical Context
The CY74FCT543ATQCT implements dual independent 8-bit latched transceiver channels using D-type transparent latches with active-low enable controls. Each direction (A↔B) uses dedicated CE, LE, and OE inputs to decouple data capture timing from output gating - enabling simultaneous storage and conditional output assertion without bus contention.
Its Ioff circuitry disables all outputs when VCC = 0 V, preventing backflow current during partial power-down. Edge-rate control ensures matched rise/fall times and reduced EMI, while TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V) and 3.3-V typical VOH guarantee interoperability with both 5-V TTL and mixed-voltage systems.

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (LEBA) | B-to-A latch-enable input | Active-low control that makes B-to-A latches transparent on low; stores data on low-to-high transition |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the CY74FCT543ATQCT?
The CY74FCT543ATQCT does not specify a maximum clock frequency directly, but its 6.5-ns maximum propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL) and 2-ns setup time (tsu) enable reliable operation in bus systems with cycle times ≥13 ns - corresponding to effective data rates up to ~77 MHz in synchronous latch-controlled configurations. Actual system frequency depends on board layout, load capacitance, and control signal timing margins.
Does the CY74FCT543ATQCT support hot-swap or partial-power-down operation?
Yes, the CY74FCT543ATQCT supports partial-power-down operation via its Ioff feature. When VCC = 0 V, the Ioff circuitry disables all outputs, limiting leakage current to ±1 µA even if A or B bus lines are held at valid logic levels. This prevents damaging current backflow and allows safe insertion or removal in live backplane or modular systems - a key requirement for industrial hot-swap architectures.
What is the pin compatibility status between CY74FCT543ATQCT and CY74FCT543TQCT?
The CY74FCT543ATQCT and CY74FCT543TQCT share identical SSOP-24 (DBQ) pinout, electrical interface, and functional block diagram. They differ only in AC timing specifications: CY74FCT543ATQCT has 6.5-ns max propagation delay, while CY74FCT543TQCT is rated at 8.5 ns. Both are functionally interchangeable in layouts designed for the SSOP-24 footprint, though timing-critical designs must verify setup/hold margins with the slower variant.
Can the CY74FCT543ATQCT drive standard TTL loads directly?
Yes, the CY74FCT543ATQCT is fully compatible with standard TTL logic levels. Its VIH (2.0 V min) and VIL (0.8 V max) thresholds match TTL input requirements, and its 64-mA sink / 32-mA source drive strength exceeds the 16-mA sink / 0.4-mA source needed for TTL fan-out of 10. No level-shifting circuitry is required when interfacing with 74LS, 74ALS, or other standard TTL devices.
What package variants are available for the CY74FCT543ATQCT besides SSOP-24?
The CY74FCT543ATQCT is exclusively offered in the SSOP-24 (DBQ) package per TI's official ordering information. Alternate speed grades like CY74FCT543TQCT and CY74FCT543CTQCT share the same DBQ package, while SOIC-24 variants (e.g., CY74FCT543ATSOCT) exist for the same speed grade but use the DW package. No CDIP, LCCC, or QFP variants are listed for the 'A' speed grade - only SSOP and SOIC options.
