74FCT3245APGG

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The 74FCT3245APGG is an octal bus transceiver from the 74FCT logic family, manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It features a single functional block with eight true output channels and operates within a supply voltage range of 3 V to 3.6 V. The device utilizes a 20-pin TSSOP surface-mount package and supports industrial operating temperatures from -40°C to +85°C. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum propagation delay of 4.6 ns at 50 pF load, with output drive capabilities of -8 mA for high level and 24 mA for low level.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Provides bidirectional data transfer between two 8-bit buses using non-inverting logic.
• Features three-state outputs that isolate disconnected buses when the device is disabled.
• Designed for asynchronous communication with TTL-compatible input and output levels.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Asynchronous communication interfaces between data buses
• Memory mapping applications requiring signal buffering
• Clock drivers and buffer circuits in digital systems

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'PGG' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm pinout compatibility and RoHS status. Ensure the procurement source provides valid traceability documentation. Confirm that the component meets the required industrial temperature range specifications for the intended deployment environment before finalizing orders.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring fast switching speeds and strong drive currents within a 3.3 V logic system. The 74FCT series offers superior performance compared to standard CMOS logic. Consider the TSSOP-20 package dimensions for PCB layout constraints. Verify that the application does not require voltage translation, as this device operates strictly within the 3 V to 3.6 V range without level shifting capabilities.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the 74FCT family of BiCMOS logic devices, which bridge the gap between standard CMOS and TTL technologies. The 74FCT3245 variant specifically serves as an octal bus transceiver, widely used in legacy and modern digital systems for reliable data routing. Renesas Electronics continues to support this line through its acquisition of IDT, ensuring availability for long-term production cycles.
