Texas Instruments SN74LVTH241 3.3-V ABT Octal Buffers/Drivers With 3-State Outputs SN74LVTH241PWE4

The SN74LVTH241 is a 3.3-V ABT octal buffer/driver designed for low-voltage operation, capable of interfacing with 5-V systems. It features two 4-bit line drivers with separate output-enable inputs, allowing for flexible control of data flow. The device supports mixed-mode signal operation and can function with input and output voltages up to 5.5 V while maintaining a 3.3 V supply. Key specifications include a supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 3.6 V, low output ground bounce (VOLP < 0.8 V at VCC = 3.3 V), and high-impedance outputs during power-up and power-down conditions. The active bus-hold circuitry eliminates the need for external pull-up or pull-down resistors, ensuring valid logic states on unused inputs. The device also boasts robust ESD protection exceeding 2000 V for the human-body model and latch-up performance exceeding 500 mA per JESD 17. The SN74LVTH241 is suitable for applications requiring reliable signal buffering and driving capabilities in low-voltage environments, making it a viable choice for engineers looking for efficient and effective buffer solutions.
