The CD74FCT646M from Harris Corporation is a non-inverting octal bus transceiver in the 74FCT family. It operates from 4.75V to 5.25V, with 3-State outputs and 15mA source/64mA sink current capability. The 1-channel design supports bidirectional data flow in 8-bit systems. Packaged in a 24-SOIC, it is suitable for bus interfacing, memory control, and industrial applications.

  • High Sink Current (64mA): Drives heavy loads and multiple fan-outs, ensuring reliable bus operation.
  • Bidirectional Operation: Reduces component count by combining two buffers into one transceiver.
  • 3-State Outputs: Prevents bus contention in multi-device systems, improving reliability.
  • 74FCT High-Speed Family: Offers faster propagation delays compared to older 74LS/74ALS families.

Bus Transceiver for 5V Systems

Use the CD74FCT646M to interface between two 5V buses. The 64mA sink current ensures robust signal drive for long traces.

Memory Read/Write Buffering

Connect a CPU to memory devices. The transceiver direction control simplifies read/write operations, reducing external logic.

Peripheral Device Interfacing

Buffer signals to printers, displays, or other peripherals. The 3-State outputs allow the CPU to disconnect from the peripheral when not in use.

Industrial Control Systems

Interface PLCs with sensors and actuators. The high sink current can drive optocouplers or small relays directly.

Test and Measurement Equipment

Route signals between test instruments and DUTs. The fast propagation delay of the 74FCT family preserves signal timing.

Legacy System Upgrades

Replace older 74LS or 74ALS transceivers with the CD74FCT646M for improved speed and lower power consumption.
