74HC241N,652

Overview

The 74HC241N,652 is an octal non-inverting buffer and line driver manufactured by Nexperia. It features three-state outputs controlled by two output enable inputs (1OE and 2OE). The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V and supports through-hole mounting in a DIP-16 package. It exhibits a propagation delay of 15 ns and functions reliably across an operating temperature range from -40 °C to +125 °C.

Feature Summary

• Octal non-inverting buffer configuration with three-state outputs
• Dual independent output enable control for bus driving applications
• Wide supply voltage compatibility supporting 2 V to 6 V operation

Applications

• Bus-oriented memory and signal switching
• Clock drivers and buffer circuits
• Line drivers for high-capacitance loads

Procurement Notes

Verify the current manufacturing status as the product may be obsolete or subject to discontinuation notices. Confirm that the DIP-16 through-hole package aligns with your PCB design requirements. Ensure the logic family specifications meet your system's voltage and speed constraints before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an octal buffer with tri-state capability is required for bus systems. The dual enable inputs allow flexible control over data flow direction. Verify that the 15 ns propagation delay meets your timing requirements and that the wide operating temperature range suits your environmental conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 74HC/HCT logic family, designed for high-speed CMOS operations. It serves as a standard interface component for connecting microprocessors to peripheral devices. The device ensures signal integrity in digital systems requiring buffered and isolated data paths.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible replacements such as the 74HC244 if single-ended enable is sufficient. Verify electrical parameters against alternatives like the 74HCT241 for TTL compatibility needs.
