Product details
Overview
N74F543DB,118 from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Philips) is an octal registered transceiver with non-inverting 3-state outputs, integrating dual D-type latch functionality for bidirectional data flow control. It features separate A-to-B and B-to-A latch enable (LEAB/LEBA) and output enable (OEAB/OEBA) controls, 64 mA sink capability on B-port outputs, and 24 mA sink on A-port outputs - enabling robust bus interfacing in 5 V TTL systems.
For engineers reviewing the N74F543DB,118 datasheet, N74F543DB,118 pinout, N74F543DB,118 application, or N74F543DB,118 equivalent, this device serves as a high-drive registered transceiver for memory address/data bus isolation, microprocessor system expansion, and legacy TTL bus arbitration where independent direction control and latched storage are required.
Technical Context
The N74F543DB,118 implements two independent 8-bit D-type latch banks - one for A→B and one for B→A data paths - each with dedicated active-low latch enable (LEAB/LEBA) and output enable (OEAB/OEBA) inputs. This architecture enables simultaneous latching and 3-state control per direction without cross-talk.
It supports true bidirectional operation with asymmetric drive strength: B-port outputs deliver 64 mA sink current (vs. 24 mA on A-port), allowing direct interface to heavier-loaded buses or legacy peripherals, while propagation delays remain tightly controlled at ≤12.5 ns (LEAB→Bn) across 0–70 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5 V TTL logic rails and tolerant of ±10 % variation. |
| A-Port Output Drive | Sinks 24 mA / sources 3 mA - sufficient for driving standard TTL loads and small-capacitance buses. |
| B-Port Output Drive | Sinks 64 mA / sources 15 mA - enables direct connection to high-fanout or legacy peripheral buses without external buffers. |
| Propagation Delay (LEAB→Bn) | Max 12.5 ns at 5 V, 0–70 °C - ensures timing-critical register-to-bus transfer in fast microprocessor systems. |
| 3-State Enable/Disable Time | OEAB/OEBA → Bn: 1.5–9.0 ns enable, 1.0–8.5 ns disable - minimizes bus contention windows during direction switching. |
| Input Loading | A/B ports: 3.5/1.0 FAST Unit Loads (70 µA HIGH / 0.6 mA LOW) - low input current simplifies upstream driver design. |
| Operating Temperature | 0 °C to +70 °C - commercial-grade rating suitable for industrial control panels and embedded computing chassis. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SSOP24 - plastic shrink small outline package, 24 leads, 5.3 mm body width (SOT340-1), surface-mount compatible with fine-pitch PCB assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1–8, 15–22 | A0–A7, B0–B7 I/O | Two 8-bit 3-state bidirectional data ports; A-side optimized for source/sink balance, B-side for high sink drive. |
| 9, 10 | LEBA, LEAB | Active-low latch enable inputs - control transparency/storage mode of respective B→A and A→B latches. |
| 11, 13 | OEBA, OEAB | Active-low output enable inputs - independently disable A or B port outputs into high-impedance state. |
| 12 | GND | Ground reference for all logic and output stages; decoupling capacitor placement critical near this pin. |
| 24 | VCC | +5 V supply rail; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling adjacent to pin for noise suppression. |
| 23, 14 | EBA, EAB | Active-low enable inputs - gate data entry into respective latches; must be LOW before LE transition for valid capture. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent latch banks | Enables concurrent A→B and B→A data registration without shared control timing constraints. |
| Asymmetric output drive (B-port 64 mA) | Eliminates need for external bus drivers when interfacing to high-capacitance or legacy peripheral buses. |
| Separate E and LE controls per direction | Allows precise setup/hold management and eliminates race conditions during bidirectional bus handshaking. |
| 3-State outputs with fast enable/disable | Reduces bus contention risk during direction transitions; sub-10 ns disable time prevents glitches on shared lines. |
| SSOP24 footprint compatibility | Provides space-efficient surface-mount option versus SO24 or DIP24, supporting higher board density in compact systems. |
Applications
| Microprocessor Bus Expansion | Memory Address/Data Isolation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal registered transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74F543N | DIP24 through-hole package; identical electrical specs and pinout; no SSOP thermal or density advantage. | Preferred for prototyping, manual assembly, or legacy through-hole PCBs; not suitable for automated SMT production. | Select SN74F543N only when DIP24 mechanical fit or hand-soldering is required; N74F543DB,118 is optimal for volume SMT manufacturing. |
| 74ACT543SCX | Advanced CMOS (ACT) family; 5 V tolerant, lower ICC (20 mA typical), but B-port sink limited to 24 mA (not 64 mA). | Lower power consumption and improved noise immunity, but insufficient drive for legacy TTL bus loads. | Choose 74ACT543SCX only in new designs with purely CMOS-compatible loads and strict power budgets; N74F543DB,118 remains necessary for TTL bus drive compliance. |
Compared with SN74F543N and 74ACT543SCX, the N74F543DB,118 uniquely delivers SSOP24 packaging with full 64 mA B-port drive - making it the only choice for space-constrained, high-drive legacy bus interfaces requiring surface-mount reliability and commercial temperature operation.

FAQ
What is the maximum sink current supported by the B-port outputs of N74F543DB,118?
The B-port outputs (B0–B7) of N74F543DB,118 are rated to sink up to 64 mA per pin under recommended operating conditions (VCC = 4.5–5.5 V, Tamb = 0–70 °C). This specification is verified per the DC Electrical Characteristics table in the Philips/NXP datasheet and enables direct interface to legacy TTL loads without external buffering. The N74F543DB,118 maintains this drive strength across its full commercial temperature range.
Does N74F543DB,118 support true bidirectional latched data transfer?
Yes, N74F543DB,118 supports true independent bidirectional latching via two separate D-type latch banks - one for A→B and one for B→A paths - each with dedicated LEAB/LEBA and OEAB/OEBA controls. This allows simultaneous registration of data flowing in opposite directions without interference, as confirmed by the Function Table and Logic Diagram in the official datasheet. The N74F543DB,118 achieves this without shared clock or enable signals.
What is the propagation delay from LEAB to Bn output for N74F543DB,118?
The maximum propagation delay from LEAB to Bn output for N74F543DB,118 is 12.5 ns under worst-case conditions (VCC = 4.5 V, Tamb = 0–70 °C, CL = 50 pF). This value is specified in the AC Electrical Characteristics table for tPLH/tPHL (LEAB to Bn) and reflects the time required for the latch output to stabilize after the LEAB edge. The N74F543DB,118 guarantees this timing across its full commercial operating range.

Yes, N74F543DB,118 is pin-compatible with N74F543D (SO24) and N74F543N (DIP24) - all share identical 24-pin functional mapping per the Pin Configuration diagram. The only difference is physical package: SSOP24 (N74F543DB,118), SO24 (N74F543D), and DIP24 (N74F543N). Electrical behavior, timing, and logic function are identical across these variants, making N74F543DB,118 a drop-in replacement in SSOP-layout designs.
What are the absolute maximum ratings for supply voltage and operating temperature of N74F543DB,118?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for N74F543DB,118 is –0.5 V to +7.0 V, and the absolute maximum operating free-air temperature is 0 °C to +70 °C. These limits are defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the Philips/NXP datasheet and must not be exceeded to avoid permanent device damage.
