Product details
Overview
CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 from Texas Instruments is a 10-bit bus-interface register with 3-state outputs, designed for high-capacitance load drive in address/data bus buffering applications. It features positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flops, 7.5 ns propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL at CL = 50 pF), 64 mA sink / 32 mA source output drive, and Ioff support for partial-power-down mode operation.
For engineers reviewing the CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 datasheet, CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 pinout, CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 application, or CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include 3-state bus isolation timing, TTL-compatible input/output levels, edge-rate control for noise suppression, and SOIC-24 package compatibility with industrial temperature range (–40°C to 85°C).
Technical Context
This device implements ten independent D-type flip-flops synchronized to the rising edge of CP, with asynchronous 3-state control via OE. Its architecture supports simultaneous latching and bus release without contention, enabled by matched rise/fall times and low-output capacitance (9–12 pF).
The Ioff circuitry actively disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, limiting backflow current to ±1 µA, while edge-rate control reduces ground bounce and crosstalk in high-speed parallel interfaces. Input thresholds (VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V) and output voltage levels (VOH = 2.4 V min at –15 mA, VOL = 0.55 V max at 64 mA) ensure full TTL logic compatibility.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus-interface register applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY74FCT821CTSOC | 6 ns propagation delay (vs. 7.5 ns), higher speed grade; identical pinout and function | Suitable for designs requiring tighter timing margins or higher clock rates up to 166 MHz | Select when system timing budget demands sub-7 ns CP-to-Y delay |
| SN74FCT821ATSOCT | 10 ns propagation delay, lower drive (48 mA sink / 24 mA source), same SOIC-24 package | Optimized for lower-power, cost-sensitive industrial controls where 100 MHz operation suffices | Choose for reduced dynamic power consumption and relaxed thermal design |
Compared with CY74FCT821BTSOCE4, CY74FCT821CTSOC offers faster timing but identical functionality and layout compatibility, while SN74FCT821ATSOCT trades speed and drive strength for lower ICCD (0.06 mA/MHz vs. 0.12 mA/MHz), making it preferable in thermally constrained or battery-backed subsystems.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by CY74FCT821BTSOCE4?
CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 supports a maximum operating frequency of approximately 133 MHz, derived from its 7.5 ns maximum propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL) under CL = 50 pF conditions. This assumes sufficient setup (4 ns) and hold (2 ns) time margins for D-input stability relative to CP rising edge. Actual system frequency depends on board layout, load capacitance, and signal integrity.
Does CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 support hot-swap or partial-power-down operation?
Yes, CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 includes Ioff circuitry that limits reverse current to ±1 µA when VCC = 0 V, enabling safe partial-power-down and hot-swap capability. This prevents damaging backflow through outputs when the device is unpowered but connected to an active bus, satisfying industrial backplane and modular system requirements.
What are the absolute maximum ratings for CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 supply voltage and I/O pins?
CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 has an absolute maximum supply voltage rating of –0.5 V to 7 V, and DC input/output voltage range of –0.5 V to 7 V. Exceeding these values risks permanent damage. Recommended operating VCC is strictly 4.75–5.25 V; operation outside this window may cause functional failure or accelerated wear.
How does the edge-rate control in CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 improve system noise performance?
CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 incorporates internal edge-rate control circuitry that moderates output slew rate without compromising propagation delay. This significantly reduces ground bounce, crosstalk, and EMI in high-density PCBs-especially critical when driving multiple loads on shared buses or long traces, as confirmed by JESD22 ESD test results and application note SCCS033B.
Is CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 pin-compatible with other members of the CY74FCT821x family?
Yes, CY74FCT821BTSOCE4 is fully pin-compatible with CY74FCT821ATSOC, CY74FCT821CTSOC, and CY74FCT821BTPC across all packages (SOIC, QSOP, DIP). All variants share identical pin functions, electrical behavior, and timing architecture-only speed grade (6/7.5/10 ns), drive strength, and thermal characteristics differ.
