SN74TVC16222A,pdf(22-BIT VOLTA

The SN74TVC16222A provides 23 parallel NMOS pass transistors with a common gate. The low on-state resistance of the switch allows connections to be made with minimal propagation delay.

The device can be used as a 22-bit switch, with the gates cascaded together to a reference transistor. The low-voltage side of each pass transistor is limited to a voltage set by the reference transistor. This is done to protect components with inputs that are sensitive to high-state voltage-level overshoots. (See Application Information in this data sheet.)

All of the transistors in the TVC array have the same electrical characteristics; therefore, any one of them can be used as the reference transistor. Because, within the device, the characteristics from transistor to transistor are equal, the maximum output high-state voltage (V_OH) is approximately the reference voltage (V_REF), with minimal deviation from one output to another.
