16-Bit Bi-Directional Transceiver

The FCT162H245T 16-bit transceiver is built using advanced dual metal CMOS technology. These high-speed, low-power transceivers are ideal for synchronous communication between two busses (A and B). The Direction and Output Enable controls operate these devices as either two independent 8-bit transceivers or one 16-bit transceiver. The direction control pin (xDIR) controls the direction of data flow. The output enable pin (xOE) overrides the direction control and disables both ports. All inputs are designed with hysteresis for improved noise margin. The FCT162H245T has "Bus Hold" which retains the input"s last state whenever the input goes to high impedance. This prevents "floating" inputs and eliminates the need for pull-up/down resistors.
