74ACT241SCX

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The onsemi 74ACT241SCX is an octal buffer and line driver featuring non-inverting 3-STATE outputs. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and supports a maximum quiescent supply current of 40 µA at 5.5 V. The device provides high drive capability with output source/sink currents of 24 mA. Propagation delays are specified up to 10 ns at 5.0 V, with output enable times reaching 11 ns. It utilizes a 20-Lead Small Outline Integrated Circuit (SOIC) package.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Non-inverting 3-STATE outputs designed for driving bus lines or buffering memory address registers
• TTL-compatible inputs facilitate direct interfacing with standard logic circuits
• Outputs capable of sourcing and sinking 24 mA for robust signal transmission

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Memory address drivers
• Clock drivers
• Bus-oriented transmitters or receivers

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'X' corresponds to tape and reel packaging as indicated in official documentation. Confirm RoHS compliance status through manufacturer datasheets or material composition reports. Ensure the SOIC-20 package dimensions match the design footprint requirements before finalizing procurement specifications.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when an octal buffer with 3-STATE control is required for bus applications. The ACT series offers TTL-compatible input thresholds suitable for 5 V systems. Consider the 24 mA drive strength for load requirements and verify that the propagation delay characteristics meet the system timing constraints.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the 74ACT family of octal buffers and line drivers. It shares functional similarities with other devices like the 74ACT244 and 74ACT541 but differs in pinout configuration and specific electrical characteristics. The SCX designation identifies the specific SOIC-20 package variant manufactured by onsemi.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the MC74ACT241MTCX and MC74ACT241SJX from Fairchild Semiconductor, which share identical logical functions and pinouts.
