Product Overview: SN74LVC1G126DCKRG4

The SN74LVC1G126DCKRG4 is a single bus buffer gate with 3-state output from the industry-leading semiconductor manufacturer, Texas Instruments (TI). This high-performance, silicon-gate CMOS device is specifically designed to operate from 1.65V to 5.5V, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including those that interface with various voltage levels within the same system.

The device features a single line driver with a 3-state output. The output is disabled when the output-enable (OE) input is high. When OE is low, true data is passed from the A input to the Y output. This level of control makes the SN74LVC1G126DCKRG4 ideal for driving bus lines or buffer memory address registers, while also providing the ability to isolate the bus or prevent loading by disabling the output.

One of the key benefits of the SN74LVC1G126DCKRG4 is its compatibility with 5V systems. The input and output voltage levels are referenced to V<sub>CC, allowing for seamless integration with older 5V systems as well as newer low-voltage components. This feature is particularly important for mixed-voltage applications where signal integrity and compatibility are critical.

The device is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C, ensuring reliability and performance across a broad range of environmental conditions. Additionally, it is available in a compact SC70 package, which is highly beneficial for space-constrained applications.

Key features of the SN74LVC1G126DCKRG4 include:

• Support for 1.65V to 5.5V V<sub>CC operation
• Max data rates:
  • 24 Mbps (1.65V - 3.6V @ 85°C)
  • 60 Mbps (4.5V - 5.5V @ 85°C)
• Low power consumption
• ±24-mA output drive at 3.3V
• Low I<sub>OFF supports partial-power-down mode operation
• Latch-up performance exceeds 250 mA per JESD 78, Class II
• ESD protection exceeds JESD 22

Overall, the SN74LVC1G126DCKRG4 is a versatile and reliable component that offers the performance and integration flexibility required for modern electronic designs. Whether it's for use in consumer electronics, computing devices, or industrial systems, this buffer gate from Texas Instruments stands out for its ease of use and integration in multi-voltage environments.
