74ALVC245WMX

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The onsemi 74ALVC245WMX is an octal bidirectional transceiver featuring non-inverting buffers with three-state outputs. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65V to 3.6V and supports inputs and outputs tolerant up to 3.6V. The device utilizes advanced CMOS technology for high-speed operation while maintaining low power dissipation. Propagation delay (tPD) is specified at a maximum of 3.4ns at 3.0V–3.6V, 3.9ns at 2.3V–2.7V, and 6ns at 1.65V–1.95V. It is housed in a 20-lead Small Outline Integrated Circuit (SOIC) package.
