Fairchild introduces the industry's first 20-bit configurable bus switches. The FST16450 is a 20-bit configurable bus switch with selectable level shifting, and the FSTUD16450 is a 20-bit configurable bus switch with undershoot protection and selectable level shifting. Both 20-bit devices can be configured as 4, 5, 8, 10, 16 or 20-bit switches. These devices offer designers significant space savings, design flexibility and part count reduction.
