74ACT241MTCX

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The onsemi 74ACT241MTCX is an octal buffer and line driver featuring non-inverting 3-STATE outputs. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V, with inputs compatible with TTL logic levels. The device provides high drive capability, sourcing and sinking up to 24mA per output. Propagation delays are specified at a maximum of 10ns under standard test conditions. It is housed in a 20-lead Thin Shrink Small Outline Package (TSSOP) designed for improved printed circuit board density.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the component manufacturer origin, as the datasheet references Fairchild Semiconductor specifications while the model indicates onsemi branding. Confirm that the TSSOP package dimensions align with JEDEC MO-153 standards. Ensure the ordering suffix 'X' corresponds to tape and reel packaging requirements for your assembly process.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring octal buffering with high drive strength and TTL-compatible inputs. The ACT series offers faster switching speeds compared to standard AC logic. Verify that the operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C meets your environmental constraints and that the 20-lead TSSOP footprint fits your PCB layout.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the 74ACT logic family, which combines CMOS low power consumption with TTL-compatible input thresholds. The 74ACT241 variant specifically provides eight buffered outputs with three-state control. It serves as a direct functional replacement for similar octal buffers in digital logic circuits requiring signal isolation or bus driving capabilities.
