Product details
Overview
PI74FCT543ATS from Pericom Semiconductor is an 8-bit non-inverting latched transceiver with dual 8-bit D-type latches, TTL-compatible I/O, integrated 25Ω series output resistors, and independent A-to-B/B-to-A control via CEAB/CEBA, LEAB/LEBA, and OEAB/OEBA signals. It operates from 4.5V to 5.5V across –40°C to +85°C and is used in bidirectional data bus isolation for industrial backplanes and legacy microprocessor expansion interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the PI74FCT543ATS datasheet, PI74FCT543ATS pinout, PI74FCT543ATS application, or PI74FCT543ATS equivalent, key selection criteria include latch-controlled bidirectional flow, 25Ω on-die termination eliminating external resistors, sub-5ns propagation delay (543DT grade), and compatibility with FAST™-series PCB footprints in 24-pin SOIC.
Technical Context
The device implements two independent 8-bit transparent/latched data paths: A-to-B and B-to-A, each with separate enable (CE), latch (LE), and output enable (OE) controls. All outputs feature built-in 25Ω series resistors to suppress transmission-line reflections without external termination.
Inputs include hysteresis (200mV) for noise immunity; outputs drive TTL loads with VOH ≥2.4V at –15mA and VOL ≤0.50V at 12mA (25Ω series). Quiescent ICC is ≤500µA, and dynamic supply current scales with toggle rate per the ICCD formula.

Applications
| Industrial Backplane Interface | Legacy Microprocessor Expansion |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Bidirectional data transfer between CPU and peripheral cards in modular PLC chassis with 10–15cm trace lengths. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Latched transceiver isolating address/data buses between slots; provides controlled timing via LEAB/LEBA pulse synchronization. Use Value: On-die 25Ω termination maintains signal integrity without layout redesign; hysteresis rejects noise from relay switching in adjacent slots. |
Use Scenario: Adding ISA-bus-compatible peripherals to aging x86-based test equipment using 5V logic rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-shifting and bus-isolation transceiver enabling Z80/8086-compatible timing with programmable latch windows. Use Value: Pin-for-pin FAST™ replacement allows reuse of legacy PCBs; TTL-level I/O ensures compatibility with 1980s-era peripheral ASICs. |
| Automated Test Equipment (ATE) Fixture | Industrial Data Acquisition Module |
|
Use Scenario: High-speed digital pattern generator interfacing to DUT via ribbon cable with unterminated stubs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output driver with controlled edge rate and termination, reducing overshoot/undershoot on 30cm cables. Use Value: 25Ω series resistance matches typical 50–75Ω cable impedance, cutting reflected energy by >80% versus un-terminated drivers. |
Use Scenario: Isolating sensor ADC outputs from microcontroller I/O in factory-floor vibration monitoring systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Latched buffer holding sampled analog front-end data until MCU initiates read cycle via OEAB/CEAB handshake. Use Value: Low ICC (≤500µA quiescent) extends battery life in portable DAQ units; –40°C to +85°C rating ensures reliability near motors and drives. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar latched transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74F543PC | Bipolar FAST™ implementation; higher ICC (20mA typical), no on-die termination, slower tPLH (10ns min) | Requires external 25Ω resistors; unsuitable for low-power or high-density layouts | Select only when legacy FAST™ board reuse mandates identical AC characteristics and thermal profile |
| SN74F543N | Same bipolar architecture as 74F543PC; identical pinout but ceramic DIP package; no hysteresis | Lacks input hysteresis - vulnerable to noise in industrial environments | Prefer only for through-hole prototyping where SOIC rework is impractical |
Compared with 74F543PC and SN74F543N, PI74FCT543ATS delivers lower power (500µA vs 20mA quiescent), integrated termination (no BOM additions), and noise-immune inputs (200mV hysteresis), making it optimal for modern industrial PCBs requiring reliability and density.

FAQ
Can PI74FCT543ATS operate at 3.3V?
No. The device is specified only for 4.5V–5.5V VCC operation. Its TTL-compatible inputs require VIH ≥2.0V and VIL ≤0.8V, and internal circuitry is not characterized below 4.5V. Attempting 3.3V operation risks undefined logic states, increased propagation delay, and potential latch-up.
What is the maximum capacitive load supported on outputs?
The datasheet specifies CL = 50pF for switching characterization. Outputs can reliably drive up to 70pF while maintaining tPLH/tPHL within 4.4ns (543DT grade) and VOL ≤0.50V at 12mA, provided trace inductance remains below 10nH and termination matches the 25Ω series resistor.
How does the 25Ω series resistor affect rise/fall times?
The integrated 25Ω resistor increases output impedance, resulting in measured tR/tF of 2.1–2.8ns (20%–80%) into 50pF. This intentional slowing reduces harmonic content above 200MHz, lowering EMI and improving signal integrity on unterminated PCB traces up to 10cm.
Is PI74FCT543ATS pin-compatible with PI74FCT544ATS?
No. While both are 24-pin SOIC transceivers, PI74FCT544ATS is inverting (A→B output = inverted A-input), whereas PI74FCT543ATS is non-inverting. Their truth tables and functional behavior differ; direct substitution will invert data and cause system failure unless logic polarity is corrected elsewhere.
