This 16-bit (dual-octal) noninverting bus transceiver is designed for 2.7-V to 3.6-V V_CC operation.

The SN74LVCR162245 is designed forasynchronous communication between data buses. The control-function implementation minimizes external timing requirements.

This device can be used as two 8-bit transceivers or one 16-bit transceiver. It allows data transmission from the A bus to the B bus or from the B bus to the A bus, depending upon the logic level at the direction-control (DIR) input. The output-enable (OE)\ input can be used to disable the device so that the buses are effectively isolated.

All outputs, which are designed to sink up to 12 mA, include 26- resistors to reduce overshoot and undershoot.

Active bus-hold circuitry is provided to hold unused or floating data inputs at a valid logic level.
