1.1

Cold spare

The 54AC164245 features a cold spare input and output buffers. In high reliability

applications, cold sparing enables a redundant device to be tied to the data bus with its

injecting current from the I/Os to the power supplies. Cold sparing also allows to keep

unpowered redundant devices so that they can be switched on only when required. Power

consumption is therefore reduced by switching off the redundant circuit. This has no impact

on the application. Cold spare is achieved by implementing a high impedance between I/Os

1.2

Power-up

During power up, all outputs are forced to high impedance. The high-impedance state is

signals during power-up.
