74AC541SCX

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The onsemi 74AC541SCX is an octal buffer and line driver featuring non-inverting logic within the AC series. It provides three-state outputs with a flow-through architecture, placing inputs and outputs on opposite sides of the package to facilitate microprocessor interface and PCB layout density. The device operates at supply voltages between 2.0 V and 6.0 V. It delivers output source and sink currents of 24 mA. Propagation delay is specified as 8 ns at 3.3 V and 6 ns at 5 V.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Flow-through architecture with inputs and outputs located on opposite sides of the package for simplified microprocessor interfacing.
• Three-state outputs that allow isolation from the bus when not enabled.
• Non-inverting logic function providing true output polarity.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Memory and address drivers
• Clock drivers
• Bus-oriented transmitter/receivers

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'SCX' corresponds to the SOIC-20W package in tape and reel shipping configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead time requirements directly with authorized distributors or the manufacturer before finalizing procurement plans.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a non-inverting octal buffer with high drive capability is required. Ensure the system voltage falls within the 2.0 V to 6.0 V range. Consider the 74ACT541 variant if TTL-compatible input thresholds are necessary instead of standard CMOS levels.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the 74AC541/74ACT541 family of octal buffers. It serves as a non-inverting counterpart to the 74AC540 inverter. The device shares functional similarities with the 74AC244 but utilizes a distinct pinout arrangement optimized for board density.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

The MC74AC541DWG is a documented equivalent offering identical functionality in a tube package. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications against the target application requirements before substitution.
