Technical Specifications
The 74LVTH543 operates with a supply voltage range of 3.0V to 3.6V. It features two sets of eight input/output pins, allowing for bidirectional data transfer. The direction of data flow is controlled by a direction control (DIR) input. The 3-state outputs are enabled or disabled by an output enable (OE) input. When OE is low, the outputs are enabled; when OE is high, the outputs are in a high-impedance state. The inputs are TTL compatible. The device features low ground bounce, which minimizes noise generation during switching. The propagation delay is very short. The flow-through architecture simplifies board layout by minimizing signal path lengths. It's used in applications requiring bidirectional asynchronous data transfer at high speeds.
