The 'LVTH16500 devices are 18-bit universal bus transceivers designed for low-voltage (3.3-V) VCC operation, but with the capability to provide a TTL interface to a 5-V system environment.
Data flow in each direction is controlled by output-enable (OEAB and OEBA\), latch-enable (LEAB and LEBA), and clock (CLKAB\ and CLKBA\) inputs. For A-to-B data flow, the device operates in the transparent mode when LEAB is high. When LEAB is low, the A data is latched if CLKAB\ is held at a high or low logic level. If LEAB is low, the A data is stored in the latch/flip-flop on the high-to-low transition of CLKAB\. Output-enable OEAB is active high. When OEAB is high, the B-port outputs are active. When OEAB is low, the B-port outputs are in the high-impedance state.
Data flow for B to A is similar to that of A to B but uses OEBA\, LEBA, and CLKBA\. The output enables are complementary (OEAB is active high and OEBA\ is active low).
Active bus-hold circuitry is provided to hold unused or floating data inputs at a valid logic level.
When VCC is between 0 and 1.5 V, the device is in the high-impedance state during power up or power down. However, to ensure the high-impedance state above 1.5 V, OE\ should be tied to VCC through a pullup resistor and OE should be tied to GND through a pulldown resistor; the minimum value of the resistor is determined by the current-sinking/current-sourcing capability of the driver.
The SN54LVTH16500 is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The SN74LVTH16500 is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
† A-to-B data flow is shown: B-to-A flow is similar but uses OEBA\, LEBA, and CLKBA\.
