54ACTQ16541
16-Bit Buffer/Line Driver with TRI-STATE Outputs
General Description
The ’ACTQ16541 contains sixteen non-inverting buffers with
TRI-STATE outputs designed to be employed as a memory
and address driver, clock driver, or bus oriented transmitter/
receiver. The device is byte controlled. Each byte has separate TRI-STATEcontrolinputs which can be shorted together
for full 16-bit operation.
The ’ACTQ16541 utilizes NSC Quiet Series technology to
guarantee quiet output switching and improved dynamic
threshold performance. FACT Quiet Series

Functional Description
The ’ACTQ16541 contains sixteen non-inverting buffers with
TRI-STATE standard outputs. The device is byte controlled
with each byte functioning identically, but independent of the
other. The control pins can be shorted together to obtain full
16-bit operation. The TRI-STATE outputs are controlled by
an Output Enable (OE
n
) input for each byte. When OEnis
LOW, the outputs are in 2-state mode. When OEnis HIGH,
the outputs are in the high impedance mode, but this does
not interfere with entering new data into the inputs.
