74HC7540D,118

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The Nexperia 74HC7540D,118 is an octal Schmitt trigger buffer and line driver featuring inverting outputs with three-state capability. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.0 V to 6.0 V and utilizes the SO-20 (SOT163-1) surface-mount package. The device incorporates two active-low output enable inputs (OE1 and OE2) to control high-impedance states. Propagation delay ranges from 20 ns at 6.0 V to 120 ns at 2.0 V under standard load conditions.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Schmitt-trigger inputs convert slowly changing signals into sharply defined jitter-free outputs
• Dual active-low output enables allow independent control of high-impedance OFF-states
• Input clamp diodes permit interfacing with voltages exceeding the supply rail using current limiting resistors

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• High-noise immunity signal buffering in industrial environments
• Line driving for data transmission systems requiring inverting logic
• Bus interface circuits utilizing controlled three-state output management
