The ALVC16500 is an 18-bit universal bus transceiver which combines D-type latches and D-type flip-flops to allow data flow in transparent, latched, and clocked modes.

Data flow in each direction is controlled by output-enable (OEAB and OEBA#), latch-enable (LEAB and LEBA), and clock (CLKAB# and CLKBA#) inputs. For A-to-B data flow, the device operates in the transparent mode when LEAB is HIGH. When LEAB is LOW, the A data is latched if CLKAB# is held at a HIGH or LOW logic level. If LEAB is LOW, the A bus data is stored in the latch/flip-flop on the HIGH-to-LOW transition of CLKAB#. When OEAB is HIGH, the outputs are active. When OEAB is LOW, the outputs are in a high-impedance state.

Data flow for B to A is similar to that of A to B but uses OEBA#, LEBA, and CLKBA#. The output enables are complementary (OEAB is active HIGH and OEBA# is active LOW).

The ALVC16500 is designed for low voltage (1.65V to 3.6V) V_CC applications with I/O capability up to 3.6V.

The 74ALVC16500 is fabricated with an advanced CMOS technology to achieve high speed operation while maintaining low CMOS power dissipation.
