74LVC2G241GD,125

Overview

The Nexperia 74LVC2G241GD,125 is a dual non-inverting buffer and line driver featuring three-state outputs. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 5.5 V and utilizes an XSON8 package (SOT1203). The device incorporates Schmitt trigger inputs for noise immunity and supports partial power-down via IOFF circuitry. It provides ±24 mA output drive at 3.0 V and ensures high latch-up performance exceeding 250 mA.

Feature Summary

• Dual non-inverting buffer/line driver with independent three-state control
• Schmitt trigger action on all inputs for improved noise tolerance
• Integrated IOFF circuitry prevents backflow current during power-down
• Compatible with mixed 3.3 V and 5 V logic environments

Applications

• Mixed voltage level translation between 3.3 V and 5 V systems
• Partial power-down applications requiring isolation
• High-speed data bus buffering and line driving

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix GD corresponds to the SOT1203 XSON8 package configuration. Confirm that the ordering code matches the required temperature range and revision level. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints designed for the 8-terminal extremely thin small outline package format before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact dual buffer with three-state capability is required in low-voltage CMOS designs. The inclusion of Schmitt triggers makes it suitable for noisy environments or slow signal transitions. Verify that the 1.65 V minimum operating voltage aligns with the system's power rails and that the XSON8 footprint fits the spatial constraints.

Part Context

This device belongs to the 74LVC family of low-voltage CMOS logic products manufactured by Nexperia. The LVC series is engineered for operation across wide voltage ranges while maintaining low power consumption. The 74LVC2G241 specifically addresses the need for dual-channel buffering in space-constrained portable and industrial electronics.

Replacement Considerations

The datasheet history indicates that type number 74LVC2G241GD was superseded by other variants. Check for updated package designations such as 74LVC2G241GS or 74LVC2G241GT if the original GD suffix is unavailable, ensuring pinout and electrical specifications remain identical.
