Product details
Overview
SN74ABT162244DLG4 from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit noninverting buffer/line driver with four independent 4-bit sections, each featuring active-low 3-state output-enable (OE) control. It operates at 4.5–5.5 V, delivers ±12 mA drive strength per output, integrates 25-Ω series termination resistors, and supports hot insertion via Ioff and power-up 3-state functionality - used in memory address buffering, clock distribution, and high-speed bus interfacing.
For engineers reviewing the SN74ABT162244DLG4 datasheet, SN74ABT162244DLG4 pinout, SN74ABT162244DLG4 application, or SN74ABT162244DLG4 equivalent, key selection considerations include its SSOP-48 package, 3.2 ns typical propagation delay (tPLH), 25-Ω integrated series resistance for signal integrity, and guaranteed hot-swap capability per JESD78 and TI's Ioff specification.
Technical Context
The SN74ABT162244DLG4 implements a flow-through pin architecture across four identical 4-bit buffer sections, each with symmetrical active-low OE inputs and noninverting outputs. Its distributed VCC/GND pin layout minimizes simultaneous switching noise, while internal 25-Ω series resistors suppress overshoot/undershoot without external components.
It features dual-stage power sequencing support: Ioff disables outputs when VCC = 0 V to prevent backflow current, and power-up 3-state forces outputs into high-impedance during VCC ramp-up (≤200 µs/V). Latch-up performance exceeds 500 mA per JESD17, and ground bounce (VOLP) remains <1 V at 5 V/25°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with standard 5-V TTL and ABT logic systems. |
| Output Drive Strength | ±12 mA per output - sufficient to drive 50-pF loads at ≤4 ns propagation delay while maintaining signal integrity. |
| Propagation Delay (tPLH) | 1 ns (min) to 3.9 ns (max) at 5 V/25°C - enables reliable operation in high-speed address/data buses up to ~250 MHz. |
| Integrated Series Resistance | 25 Ω - eliminates need for external source termination resistors, reducing BOM count and PCB area. |
| Ioff Current | ±100 µA max at VCC = 0 - prevents damaging current backflow during hot insertion or partial power-down. |
| Power-Up 3-State | Active during VCC ramp-up (≤200 µs/V) - avoids bus contention before system initialization completes. |
| Input Capacitance (Ci) | 3 pF - minimizes loading on upstream drivers and preserves timing margins in fanout-critical paths. |
Pinout & Package
SN74ABT162244DLG4 is housed in a 48-pin SSOP (Shrink Small-Outline Package) with 0.5-mm pitch, 12.6 mm × 6.2 mm body size, and 1.2 mm max height - optimized for high-density PCB layouts with thermal resistance θJA = 63°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE, 2OE, 3OE, 4OE | Active-low output-enable control | Each independently enables/disables one 4-bit buffer section; tied to VCC via pullup for safe power-up state. |
| 1A1–1A4, 2A1–2A4, 3A1–3A4, 4A1–4A4 | Noninverting data inputs | 16 total inputs grouped into four 4-bit banks; compatible with TTL/CMOS logic levels. |
| 1Y1–1Y4, 2Y1–2Y4, 3Y1–3Y4, 4Y1–4Y4 | Noninverting buffered outputs | 16 outputs with 25-Ω series resistance; capable of sourcing/sinking ±12 mA into 50-pF loads. |
| VCC (Pins 7, 18, 31, 42) | Power supply | Distributed VCC pins reduce IR drop and switching noise across the 16-bit bus. |
| GND (Pins 4, 10, 15, 21, 28, 34, 39, 45) | Ground reference | Eight GND pins provide low-inductance return paths for all output drivers and minimize ground bounce. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit noninverting buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ABT162244DGGR | TSSOP-48 package (5.1 mm × 6.2 mm); θJA = 70°C/W; same electrical specs and pinout. | Better suited for automated SMT assembly with tighter board space constraints; slightly higher thermal resistance. | Select when footprint density and reflow compatibility outweigh thermal margin requirements. |
| SN74ABT162244DGVR | TVSOP-48 package (3.6 mm × 6.2 mm); θJA = 58°C/W; identical logic function and timing. | Optimized for ultra-compact designs with aggressive layer stacking; requires precise stencil design due to 0.4-mm pitch. | Choose for space-constrained portable or modular systems where thermal performance is prioritized over assembly yield. |
Compared with SN74ABT162244DGGR and SN74ABT162244DGVR, the SN74ABT162244DLG4 offers the largest pad pitch (0.5 mm) and lowest assembly risk in SSOP format, making it ideal for prototyping, low-volume production, and thermal-aware designs where θJA = 63°C/W provides headroom over TSSOP/TVSOP variants.

FAQ
What is the recommended pullup resistor value for OE pins on the SN74ABT162244DLG4?
The OE pins of the SN74ABT162244DLG4 must be tied to VCC through a pullup resistor to ensure high-impedance state during power-up. The minimum resistor value depends on the current-sinking capability of the driving source; TI specifies that the resistor should allow sufficient current to meet VIH ≥ 2 V while staying within the driver's sink rating - typically 4.7 kΩ to 10 kΩ for standard 5-V CMOS drivers. This ensures robust noise immunity and fast enable/disable transitions without overloading upstream logic.
Does the SN74ABT162244DLG4 require external series termination resistors?
No, the SN74ABT162244DLG4 does not require external series termination resistors because it integrates 25-Ω series resistors on all 16 outputs. These on-die resistors are designed to match typical PCB trace impedances (e.g., 50 Ω) and suppress overshoot/undershoot in point-to-point or short-bus configurations. External resistors may still be needed for longer traces or specific impedance-matching requirements beyond the device's built-in compensation.
Can the SN74ABT162244DLG4 be used in hot-swap applications?
Yes, the SN74ABT162244DLG4 is explicitly designed for hot-insertion applications. Its Ioff circuitry disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, preventing damaging current backflow, and its power-up 3-state feature holds all outputs in high-impedance during VCC ramp-up. These capabilities comply with JESD78 latch-up immunity (>500 mA) and are validated per TI's ABT family specifications - making SN74ABT162244DLG4 suitable for telecom line cards, modular servers, and industrial backplanes.
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the SN74ABT162244DLG4?
The SN74ABT162244DLG4 does not specify a maximum clock frequency directly, but its switching characteristics support reliable operation in systems with bus frequencies up to ~250 MHz. With a typical propagation delay of 2.5 ns (tPLH) and 3.1 ns (tPHL) at 5 V/25°C, and a maximum of 3.9 ns/4.8 ns, it meets setup/hold timing for 25-MHz address/data buses and can drive 50-pF loads with clean edges. System-level frequency limits depend on trace length, termination, and load capacitance - not the device itself.
How does the flow-through architecture of the SN74ABT162244DLG4 benefit PCB layout?
The flow-through architecture of the SN74ABT162244DLG4 aligns inputs and outputs on opposite sides of the SSOP-48 package (e.g., 1A1 on pin 47 → 1Y1 on pin 2), enabling straight-line trace routing with minimal layer changes or vias. This reduces crosstalk, maintains consistent trace lengths across bit lanes, simplifies differential pair routing for complementary signals, and lowers overall signal-integrity risk - especially critical in high-speed memory and clock distribution applications where skew and reflection must be minimized.
