74LCX760MSA

Overview

The onsemi 74LCX760MSA is a non-inverting buffer integrated circuit manufactured in a 20-SSOP surface-mount package. It contains two independent elements, each providing four bits of buffering capability for a total of eight channels. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2V to 3.6V and features open-drain outputs capable of sourcing or sinking up to 24mA. Designed for low-power applications, it exhibits a static current of 10µA and functions reliably across an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides dual four-bit non-inverting buffering functionality within a single compact package
• Features open-drain output configuration suitable for wired-OR logic and level shifting
• Operates with low quiescent current consumption for power-sensitive designs
• Supports wide supply voltage operation from 2V to 3.6V

Applications

• Bus interface buffering in portable electronic devices
• Level translation between different voltage domains
• Signal driving for low-capacitance loads
• Memory address and data line buffering

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity as the 74LCX760MSA is listed as obsolete by onsemi. Confirm manufacturer origin, as Fairchild Semiconductor also produced this part number prior to acquisition. Check datasheet revisions to ensure pinout and electrical characteristics match your design requirements. Validate RoHS compliance status through official documentation before integration into new production runs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when open-drain outputs are required for bus sharing or voltage level adaptation. Ensure the load capacitance remains within specifications to maintain signal integrity at the target switching speeds. Verify that the system voltage stays within the 2V to 3.6V range to prevent damage or malfunction. Consider the 20-SSOP package dimensions for PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 74LCX series of CMOS logic devices, known for high-speed operation and low power consumption. The 74LCX760 specifically addresses buffering needs with its dual-element architecture. It complements other LCX family members like the 74LCX244 and 74LCX245, offering distinct open-drain capabilities compared to standard push-pull outputs found in similar buffers.
