Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package variant required, as the 'WM' suffix denotes the 20-Lead Small Outline Integrated Circuit (SOIC). Confirm that the design accommodates the recommended operating conditions, specifically the 2.3V to 3.6V supply voltage range. Ensure OE is tied to VCC through a pull-up resistor if high-impedance state during power transitions is critical for the application.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when 5V tolerance is required for both input and output sides in a low-voltage system. It is suitable for designs needing high-speed bidirectional transfer with minimal skew. Consider the SOIC-20 package constraints regarding board space and thermal management. Verify that the 24 mA drive current meets the load requirements of the destination bus lines.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This device belongs to the LCX family of low-voltage CMOS logic products. It functions as an octal bus transceiver, providing eight non-inverting buffers. The Z designation indicates enhanced 5V tolerance characteristics compared to standard LCX variants. It is manufactured using advanced CMOS processes optimized for speed and power efficiency.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 8-bit bidirectional transceivers with 5V tolerance from the same manufacturer or competitors. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications such as propagation delay and output drive current before substitution.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers FAQ

How does the device handle power-up and power-down sequences?

When VCC is between 0V and 1.5V, the device enters a high-impedance state to prevent intermittent low-impedance loading or glitching. To ensure this state, the OE input should be tied to VCC through a pull-up resistor.

What is the maximum propagation delay specified?

The maximum propagation delay (tPD) is 7.0 ns when VCC is 3.3V and the load capacitance is 50 pF.
