What is the CY74FCT823CTQC?
The CY74FCT823CTQC is a bus driver from Cypress's FCT series, designed for high-speed bus interface and signal buffering in digital systems. It is a single-function logic device that drives bus lines with the characteristic FCT-series speed and drive strength.
RoHS compliance and BOM implications
Designs targeting RoHS exemption categories (e.g., certain industrial or aerospace applications) may still use it, but for general commercial or consumer electronics, a RoHS-compliant equivalent should be evaluated. The active lifecycle status means there is no imminent end-of-life pressure, but the RoHS flag may limit its use in new designs that require full compliance.
Package and supply format
The CY74FCT823CTQC is listed with a package type of Bulk, which typically refers to the shipping medium (tubes or trays) rather than a specific case outline. Bulk delivery is common for engineering samples or low-volume production runs; for tape-and-reel quantities, check the ordering options.
Sourcing and availability
Given its active status and RoHS non-compliance, supply is stable but may be more limited than fully RoHS-compliant parts. For urgent BOM fills, an RFQ is the fastest path to confirm stock and lead time.
