Overview
The SN75ALS162DWRG4 is an eight-channel general-purpose interface bus (GPIB) transceiver designed by Texas Instruments. This monolithic, high-speed, advanced low-power Schottky process device is intended to provide bus-management and data-transfer signals between operating units of a multiple-controller instrumentation system. It is particularly useful when combined with the SN75ALS160 octal bus transceiver to form a complete 16-wire interface for the IEEE 488 bus.
