Texas Instruments SN54BCT541 Octal Buffers/Drivers With 3-State Outputs 5962-9074901MSA

The SN54BCT541 is an octal buffer and line driver designed for driving bus lines or buffering memory address registers. It operates within a voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and features a state-of-the-art BiCMOS design that significantly reduces ICCZ. The device includes 3-state outputs controlled by a 2-input AND gate with active-low inputs, allowing all eight outputs to enter a high-impedance state when either output-enable input (OE1 or OE2) is high. The SN54BCT541 is available in multiple package types, including the CFP (W) package, which is suitable for applications requiring operation in extreme temperatures ranging from -55¬8C to 125¬8C. The device's pinout facilitates efficient printed circuit board layout, with inputs and outputs located on opposite sides of the package. It is important to tie the OE inputs to VCC through a pullup resistor to ensure proper operation during power transitions. The product is compliant with military specifications, making it suitable for use in critical applications.
