The CY7C964A integrates several space-consuming functions into one small package, freeing board space for the implementation of added-value board features. It contains counters, comparators, latches, and drivers configured to be of value to implementors of any backplane interface with address and data buses, particularly VMEbus interfaces. The on-chip drivers are suitable for driving the VMEbus directly. The CY7C964A is ideal in applications where high-performance and real estate are primary concerns. Although having many applications, the Bus Interface Logic Circuit is an ideal companion part to Cypress's VMEbus family of components, the VIC068A, VIC64, and the CY7C960A. It is intended to drive the address and data buses, so three or four of these small devices are needed per controller. In every
