4-Bit Bidirectional Bus Transceivers
General Description
The DP8216/DP8216M and DP8226/DP8226M are 4-bit bi-
directional bus drivers to use in bus oriented applications.
The non-inverting DP8216/DP8216M and inverting
DP8226/DP8226M drivers are provided for flexibility in sys-
tem design.
Each buffered line of the four-bit drivers consists of two
separate buffers that are TRI-STATEÉto achieve direct bus
interface and bidirectional capability. On one side of the
driver the output of one buffer and the input of another are
tied together (DB); this side is used to interface to the sys-
tem side components such as memories, I/O, etc., because
its interface is TTL compatible and it has high driver (50
mA). On the other side of the driver the inputs and outputs
are separated to provide maximum flexibility. Of course,
they can be tied together so that the driver can be used to
buffer a true bidirectional bus. The DO outputs on this side
of the driver have a special high voltage output drive capa-
bility so that direct interface to the 8080 type CPUs is
achieved with an adequate amount of noise immunity.
The CS input is a device enable. When it is ‘‘high’’ the out-
put drivers are all forced to their high-impedance state.
When it is a ‘‘low’’ the device is enabled and the direction of
the data flow is determined by the DIEN input.
The DIEN input controls the direction of data flow, which is
accomplished by forcing one of the pair of buffers into its
high-impedance state and allowing the other to transmit its
data. A simple two-gate circuit is used for this function.
