74LCXZ163245
16-Bit Dual Supply Translating Transceiver
with 3-STATE Outputs (Preliminary)
General Description
The 74LCXZ163245 is a dual supply, 16-bit, translating
transceiver that is designed for two-way asynchronous
communication between busses at different supply volt-
ages. This device is suited for PCMCIA and other real-time
configurable I/O applications that utilize mixed power sup-
plies.
The 74LCXZ163245 is designed to Power-Up and Power-
Down into a High Impedance state (outputs disabled). The
feature eliminates the need to power-up in a specific
sequence to avoid drawing excessive current.
The A Port interfaces with the higher voltage bus (3.0V to
5.5V), and the B Port interfaces with the lower voltage bus
(2.3V to 3.6V). This dual supply design allows for transla-
tion from low voltage busses (2.3V to 3.6V) to busses at a
higher potential, up to 5.5V. The 74LCXZ163245 is
intended to be used in applications where the A Port is con-
nected to the PCMCIA card slots, and the B Port is con-
nected to the 3.0V host system.
Furthermore, when both OE’s are HIGH, the A Port I/O pins
are disabled, and both A Port I/O connections and A Port
V
CC
are allowed to float. This feature permits PCMCIA
cards to be inserted and removed during normal operation.
The Transmit/Receive (T/R) input determines the direction
of data flow. Transmit (active-HIGH) enables data from A
Ports to B Ports; Receive (active-LOW) enables data from
B Ports to A Ports. The Output Enable (OE
1
, OE
2
) inputs,
when HIGH, disable their associated ports by placing the
I/Os in HIGH-Z condition. The 74LCXZ163245 is designed
so that the control pins (T/R
n
, OE
n
) are powered by V
CCB
,
so that V
CCA
may be removed when the I/Os are disabled.
The 74LCXZ163245 is suitable for mixed voltage applica-
tions such as notebook computers using a 3.3V CPU and
5.0V peripheral components. It is fabricated with an
Advanced CMOS technology to achieve high speed opera-
tion while maintaining low CMOS power dissipation.

LCXZ163245 Translator Power Up Note
The LCXZ163245 Translator is designed with two separate
V
CC
power rails. V
CCA
is the higher potential rail, operating
at 3.0 to 5.5 volts, and V
CCB
is the lower potential rail, oper-
ating at 2.3 to 3.6 volts. The control pins of the device
(OE
n
, T/R
n
) are supplied by the V
CCB
rail.
The LCXZ163245 will remain in high impedance mode
(outputs are disabled) when V
CCA
and/or V
CCB
is between
0 volts and 1.5 volts during power up. Placing the outputs
in a high impedance (Z) state prevents intermittent low
impedance loading or glitching in bus oriented applications.
To ensure the high impedance state during power up
beyond a V
CC
of 1.5V and also during power down, the
OE
n
pin should be tied to V
CCB
through a pull up resistor.
The minimum value of this resistor is determined by the
current-sourcing capability of the device driving the OE
n
pin.

Note 2:
The “Absolute Maximum Ratings” are those values beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. The device should not be operated
at these limits. The parametric values defined in the Electrical Characteristics tables are not guaranteed at the absolute maximum ratings. The “Recom-
mended Operating Conditions” table will define the conditions for actual device operation.
Note 3:
