The 74FCT162240CTPACT is an Integrated Circuit (IC) component that belongs to the FCT series of high-speed CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) octal buffer/line driver devices. It is designed to provide a high-performance interface between a processor and external bus driver devices. Below are some key features and functionalities of the IC:
1. High-Speed Operation: The 74FCT162240CTPACT operates at a high-speed of up to 4.2 ns maximum propagation delay, making it suitable for use in applications demanding rapid data transfer.
2. Octal Buffer/Line Driver: It acts as an octal non-inverting buffer/line driver, allowing bidirectional data flow between the internal bus and external devices.
3. 3-State Outputs: The IC incorporates 3-state outputs, enabling the user to actively drive output lines to high impedance when not required, avoiding contention and enhancing system flexibility.
4. Input/Output Voltage Compatibility: It supports both TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) and CMOS input and output voltage levels, making it compatible with a wide range of devices with various logic families
