Technical Specifications:

The IDT74ALVCH16823PA operates at 3.3V and is designed with bus-hold circuitry on the data inputs, which eliminates the need for external pull-up resistors. It provides a low propagation delay of typically 2.6 ns, facilitating high-speed data transfer. The device features 3-state outputs, allowing for connection to a shared bus. The TTL-compatible inputs ensure easy interfacing with TTL logic levels. It's available in a TSSOP (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package) for surface mount applications. The low ground bounce design contributes to improved signal integrity. The ALVCH family is known for its low-power characteristics.

This buffer/driver is commonly used in memory systems, data buses, and backplane applications where high-speed and low-power consumption are critical. The integrated bus-hold feature simplifies design and reduces component count.
