74LVC2G241DCUTG4

Overview

The SN74LVC2G241DCUTG4 is a dual non-inverting buffer and line driver manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features three-state outputs controlled by dedicated output enable inputs, allowing for bus-oriented connections and power management. The device utilizes LVC technology to support operation across a wide voltage range of 1.65 V to 3.6 V. Inputs include Schmitt trigger action, providing high tolerance for slow rise and fall times. This component is designed for portable applications requiring low power consumption and small form factors.

Feature Summary

• Dual non-inverting buffer/line driver with independent three-state control
• Schmitt trigger inputs enhance noise immunity and signal integrity
• Capable of translating signals between 3.3 V and 5 V domains
• Low power consumption suitable for battery-operated systems

Applications

• Portable consumer electronics
• Communications equipment
• Computing peripheral devices
• Memory and timing circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'G4' against the manufacturer's current product status documentation. Confirm that the package designation matches the required PCB footprint. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives is explicitly stated in the official datasheet for the exact part number variant before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact dual buffer with three-state capability is required. The inclusion of Schmitt triggers makes it suitable for noisy environments or signals with slow transitions. Verify that the operating voltage range aligns with the system's power supply rails and that the package size fits the design constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LVC2G series of logic devices from Texas Instruments. The series is characterized by low voltage CMOS technology, offering high speed and low power dissipation in ultra-small packages. The '2G' designation indicates a dual-function device within the second generation of this logic family.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the manufacturer's replacement guide for verified equivalents. Cross-reference pinouts and electrical characteristics with alternative dual buffer drivers from other manufacturers if sourcing constraints exist.
