CD74FCT240M96

Overview

The CD74FCT240M96 is an octal inverting buffer and line driver manufactured by Texas Instruments. It belongs to the FCT logic series and utilizes BiCMOS technology. The device features eight input lines and three-state outputs with inverted polarity. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.75 V to 5.25 V. Key electrical parameters include a high-level output current of -32 mA, a low-level output current of 64 mA, and a propagation delay of 4.8 ns at 5 V. The component supports surface mount installation in a SOIC-20 package and functions across a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Octal configuration providing eight independent inverting buffer channels
• Three-state output capability for bus-oriented systems
• BiCMOS FCT interface technology ensuring fast switching speeds

Applications

• Bus-oriented memory and address drivers
• Clock drivers and buffer circuits
• High-performance register banks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer source, as the CD74FCT240M96 designation has been produced by multiple vendors including Harris and Intersil. Confirm that the received component matches the intended logic family specifications and pinout compatibility before integration into the design.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring octal buffering with active-low enable control. Ensure the application environment stays within the specified operating temperature limits. Verify that the load capacitance requirements are met by the device's drive strength capabilities.

Part Context

This part is a member of the 74FCT240T series, which includes variants like CY74FCT240ATQCT and CD74FCT240E.
