ON Semiconductor MC74HCT241ADTG Octal 3-State Non-Inverting Buffer/Line Driver

The MC74HCT241ADTG from ON Semiconductor is a high-performance octal buffer and line driver designed to interface with 8-bit microprocessors and drive bus lines or buffer memory address registers. This integrated circuit is a critical component in digital systems where signal integrity and driving capability are essential. It operates as a non-inverting buffer with 3-state outputs, allowing for versatile bus interfacing in multi-master systems.

Key Features

• Logic Type: The device is an octal 3-state non-inverting buffer/line driver, which means it has eight separate output channels, each capable of driving high-capacity loads while maintaining a non-inverting relationship with the input signals.
• Output Type: It features 3-state outputs, which include a high-impedance state in addition to the regular high and low logic levels. This allows for connection to a bus line without affecting the state of the bus when disabled.
• Compatibility: The MC74HCT241ADTG is compatible with TTL logic levels while being able to operate at the higher speed of CMOS logic levels. This makes it ideal for systems that interface with both types of logic.
• Operating Voltage: It operates at a voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V, which is typical for 5V digital logic systems.
• Package: The device comes in a TSSOP-20 package, which is suitable for surface-mount technology, allowing for a compact design and efficient use of PCB space.
• Operating Temperature: The operating temperature range of the device is from -55°C to +125°C, ensuring reliable performance across a wide range of environmental conditions.
