Product details
Overview
CY74FCT543TQCT from Texas Instruments is an octal latched registered transceiver with 3-state outputs, designed for bidirectional data flow control in TTL-compatible bus systems. It features independent A-to-B and B-to-A latch-enable (LEAB/LEBA) and output-enable (OEAB/OEBA) controls, 64-mA sink / 32-mA source drive strength, and operates at 4.75–5.25 V over –40°C to +85°C - used in industrial backplane interfaces and legacy system upgrades.
For engineers reviewing the CY74FCT543TQCT datasheet, CY74FCT543TQCT pinout, CY74FCT543TQCT application, or CY74FCT543TQCT equivalent, key selection criteria include bidirectional latch timing (tsu = 2 ns, tPLH = 2.5–8.5 ns), Ioff-enabled partial-power-down support, matched rise/fall times, edge-rate-controlled noise immunity, and QSOP-24 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device implements dual 8-bit transparent latches with separate enable paths for each direction: CEAB/LEAB/OEAB govern A→B flow, while CEBA/LEBA/OEBA manage B→A flow. Each latch set supports independent storage mode entry via low-to-high LE transition and 3-state output control via active-low OE.
It integrates Ioff circuitry that disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, preventing backflow current during partial power-down. Edge-rate control minimizes ground bounce and crosstalk, and input thresholds (VIL = 0.8 V, VVIH = 2 V) ensure full TTL logic level compatibility.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.75–5.25 V - ensures stable operation across industrial voltage tolerances without external regulation |
| Output Drive | 64 mA sink / 32 mA source - drives heavy capacitive loads and multiple TTL inputs directly |
| Propagation Delay | 2.5–8.5 ns (tPLH/tPHL) - supports 100+ MHz bus clocking with margin for setup/hold timing |
| Ioff Current | ±1 µA at VCC = 0 V - enables safe hot-insertion and mixed-voltage domain isolation |
| Input Thresholds | VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2.0 V - guarantees interoperability with standard TTL and LVTTL sources |
| ESD Rating | 2000-V HBM, 200-V MM, 1000-V CDM - meets industrial-grade robustness requirements |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for extended-temperature industrial and telecom environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: SSOP-24 (DBQ), 5.3 mm × 7.2 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish, MSL Level-2-260°C-1 year.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (LEBA) | B-to-A latch-enable input | Active-low control: low enables transparency; rising edge captures B inputs into B→A latches |
| 2 (OEBA) | B-to-A output-enable input | Active-low: enables/disables B→A 3-state outputs independently of latch state |
| 3–10 (A0–A7) | A-side bidirectional terminals | Function as inputs (A→B) or high-impedance outputs (B→A) depending on CE/OE states |
| 11 (CEAB) | A-to-B enable input | Active-low master gate: must be low to allow A→B data capture or B→A readback |
| 12 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for all I/O and internal logic; requires low-inductance connection |
| 13 (VCC) | Power supply | 5-V nominal supply; decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm for noise suppression |
| 14 (CEBA) | B-to-A enable input | Active-low master gate for B→A path; orthogonal to CEAB for full bidirectional arbitration |
| 15–22 (B0–B7) | B-side bidirectional terminals | Function as inputs (B→A) or high-impedance outputs (A→B); electrically identical to A pins |
| 23 (LEAB) | A-to-B latch-enable input | Active-low: rising edge stores A inputs into A→B latches; enables synchronous capture |
| 24 (OEAB) | A-to-B output-enable input | Active-low: controls 3-state drivers for A→B outputs without affecting latch contents |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent 8-bit latch paths | Enables concurrent A↔B data staging without bus contention or arbitration logic |
| Ioff partial-power-down protection | Prevents reverse current flow when VCC is off, supporting live insertion and hot-swap systems |
| Edge-rate controlled outputs | Reduces simultaneous switching noise (SSN) by limiting dV/dt - critical for dense backplanes |
| Matched rise/fall times | Minimizes duty-cycle distortion on clocked data buses, preserving signal integrity |
| TTL-compatible input/output levels | Interoperates with legacy 5-V TTL, LVTTL, and CMOS logic without level-shifting components |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal latched transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74FCT543ATQCT | Same pinout and function but rated for 5.3-ns max propagation delay (vs. 8.5 ns for CY74FCT543TQCT); lower drive (48 mA sink / 12 mA source) | Suitable for higher-speed designs where timing margin is tight but drive load is lighter | Select SN74FCT543ATQCT when operating frequency exceeds 25 MHz and load capacitance < 30 pF per line |
| 74ACT543SCX | CMOS-based, 5-V only, 12-mA drive, no Ioff, slower tPLH (9 ns typ), different pinout (SOIC-24 only) | Lacks partial-power-down support and edge-rate control; not drop-in compatible | Choose 74ACT543SCX only if migrating from older ACT family and board layout allows SOIC-24 footprint change |
Compared with SN74FCT543ATQCT and 74ACT543SCX, CY74FCT543TQCT delivers higher drive strength and Ioff safety for industrial hot-swap use cases, at the cost of slightly relaxed timing - making it optimal for robust, moderate-speed bus isolation where reliability trumps peak speed.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock rate supported by CY74FCT543TQCT in a bidirectional bus application?
CY74FCT543TQCT does not operate on a clock signal - it is an edge-triggered latch device. Its usable data rate depends on propagation delay (2.5–8.5 ns) and setup/hold timing (tsu = 2 ns, tth = 2 ns). For reliable operation with margin, it supports sustained bidirectional bus cycles up to ~25 MHz in typical PCB layouts with ≤50-pF load per line. The CY74FCT543TQCT datasheet specifies timing under defined test conditions, not guaranteed clock frequency.
Does CY74FCT543TQCT support hot-swap or partial-power-down operation?
Yes. CY74FCT543TQCT includes Ioff circuitry that disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, limiting reverse current to ±1 µA. This enables safe hot-insertion into powered backplanes and partial-power-down modes in multi-rail systems. The CY74FCT543TQCT maintains this behavior across its full temperature range and is explicitly characterized for Ioff in the datasheet's electrical characteristics table.
Can CY74FCT543TQCT replace CY54FCT543T in existing designs?
CY74FCT543TQCT and CY54FCT543T share identical logic functionality and pinout but differ in temperature rating (–40°C to +85°C vs. –55°C to +125°C) and drive strength (64/32 mA vs. 48/12 mA). CY74FCT543TQCT is not a direct replacement in military or extended-temperature applications. However, for commercial-temperature designs with higher drive demands, CY74FCT543TQCT can be substituted if the PCB layout accommodates the QSOP-24 package and power delivery supports the increased IOL.
What package type is used for CY74FCT543TQCT, and is it RoHS-compliant?
CY74FCT543TQCT uses the SSOP-24 (DBQ) package: 5.3 mm × 7.2 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, with NiPdAu lead finish. It is RoHS-compliant (lead-free), rated MSL Level-2-260°C-1 year, and supplied in tape-and-reel format (2500 units per reel). The CY74FCT543TQCT marking "FCT543" appears on the top surface per TI's standard part identification scheme.
How does the edge-rate control in CY74FCT543TQCT improve system-level noise performance?
CY74FCT543TQCT incorporates internal edge-rate control circuitry that limits output dV/dt, reducing simultaneous switching noise (SSN) and ground bounce. This results in significantly lower radiated emissions and crosstalk compared to standard FCT devices - verified by TI's characterization showing >10 dB improvement in near-field EMI at 100–500 MHz. The CY74FCT543TQCT achieves this without external resistors or layout compromises, making it ideal for dense, noise-sensitive applications like telecom line cards.
