DESCRIPTION:
The FCT163245 16-bit transceivers are built using advanced dual metal CMOS technology. These high-speed, low-power transceivers are ideal for asynchronous communication between two buses (A and B). The Direction and Output Enable controls are designed to 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.
