The 'ACTQ16245 contains sixteen non-inverting bidirectional buffers with TRI-STATE outputs and is intended for bus oriented applications. The device is byte controlled. Each has separate control inputs which can be shorted together for full 16-bit operation. The T/R inputs determine the direction of data flow through the device. The OE inputs disable both the A and B ports by placing them in a high impedance state. The 'ACTQ16245 utilizes NSC Quiet Series technology to guarantee quiet output switching and improved dynamic threshold performance. FACT Quiet Series features GTO output control for superior performance.
