Quadruple Bus Transceivers with 3-State Outputs
These quadruple bus transceivers are designed for asynchronous two-way communications between
data buses. The control function implementation allows for maximum flexibility in timing. These
devices allow data transmission from the A bus to the B bus or from the B bus to the A bus depending
upon the logic levels at the enable inputs (GBA and GAB). The enable inputs can be used to disable
the device so that the buses are effectively isolated.
The dual-enable configuration gives the quadruple bus transceivers the capability to store data
by simultaneous enabling of GBA and GAB. Each output reinforces its input in this transceiver
configuration. Thus, when both control inputs are enabled and all other data sources to the two sets
of bus lines are at high impedance, both sets of bus lines (8 in all) will retain their states. The 4-bit
codes appearing on the two sets of buses will be complimentary for the ‘ALS242 and ‘AS242 or
identical for the ‘ALS243 and ‘AS243.
