The SN74LVCH162244ADGG is an integrated circuit (IC) component designed to provide efficient and reliable voltage translation for digital systems. It is part of the SN74LVCH series of devices manufactured by Texas Instruments. This particular IC is a 16-bit buffer/driver with 3-state outputs, offering several key features that make it versatile and suitable for many applications.
One of the notable features of the SN74LVCH162244ADGG is its voltage translation capability, allowing seamless communication between different voltage domains. It can effectively convert signals between low voltage (LV) and high voltage (CH) levels, ensuring compatibility in mixed-signal systems. The IC operates within a wide voltage range, typically supporting voltages between 1.65V and 3.6V.
The device consists of sixteen data input/output (I/O) ports, enabling bidirectional data transfer. These ports employ a 3-state output configuration, giving the option to drive the buses actively or disable the outputs when necessary. Each I/O port has ample drive strength, minimizing signal degradation and ensuring efficient transmission across the system.
Another essential feature of the SN74LVCH162244ADGG is its robust protection mechanism. The IC includes built-in ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection circuits that guard against electrostatic discharge events, preventing damage to the device during handling or operation.
Furthermore, this IC component boasts low power consumption, making it suitable for power-sensitive applications
