The CD74HCT245M96 is a high-speed octal bus transceiver designed by Texas Instruments. It belongs to the HCT family of integrated circuits, which are known for their high noise immunity and low power consumption. The device is intended to be used in applications where bidirectional data communication is required between two buses.

Key Features:

• Logic Type: Octal Bus Transceiver
• Logic Family: HCT
• Number of Pins: 20
• Supply Voltage: 4.5V to 5.5V
• Operating Temperature: -55°C to +125°C
• Package / Case: SOIC-20
• Propagation Delay Time: 13 ns (Max) at 4.5V
• Output Current: High/Low: -4 mA / 4 mA

Product Description:

The CD74HCT245M96 is designed for asynchronous communication between data buses. The control function implementation minimizes external timing requirements. This device allows data transmission from the A Bus to the B Bus or from the B Bus to the A Bus, depending on the logic level at the direction control (DIR) input. The output enable (OE) input can be used to disable the device so that the buses are effectively isolated.

The HCT logic level of the CD74HCT245M96 ensures compatibility with standard CMOS integrated circuits. With a wide operating temperature range and the ability to drive 15 LSTTL loads, the CD74HCT245M96 is versatile and suitable for a wide array of applications, including telecommunications, computing, and industrial equipment.

Its robust design also provides latch-up immunity, which is a critical feature for maintaining the integrity and reliability of data communication. The CD74HCT245M96 comes in a surface-mount SOIC-20 package, ensuring a compact footprint on printed circuit boards.
