SN74HC241DWRG4

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74HC241DWRG4 is an octal buffer and line driver with 3-state outputs manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V and features high-current outputs capable of driving up to 15 LSTTL loads. The device exhibits low power consumption with a maximum ICC of 80 μA and typical propagation delay of 11 ns. It utilizes a 20-pin SOIC package.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Octal buffers and line drivers designed for 3-state memory address drivers, clock drivers, and bus-oriented receivers
• Organized as two 4-bit buffers/drivers with separate output-enable inputs for independent control
• High-current outputs drive up to 15 LSTTL loads while maintaining low input current

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• 3-state memory address drivers
• Clock drivers
• Bus-oriented receivers and transmitters

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix G4 indicates RoHS compliance and lead-free status per TI documentation. Confirm the SOIC-20 package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the operating temperature range aligns with your system's thermal environment specifications before finalizing procurement.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring octal buffering with independent tri-state control for two distinct data groups. It is suitable for applications needing high fan-out capability to drive multiple LSTTL loads directly. Consider the 2V to 6V operating range for compatibility with various logic families in mixed-voltage environments.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the SNx4HC241 family of octal buffers and line drivers with 3-state outputs. The 'HC' designation indicates High-speed CMOS technology. The 'SN74' prefix denotes commercial grade temperature ratings, distinguishing it from the military-grade SN54 series variants available within the same functional family.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible alternatives include SN74HC241DW and SN74HC241DWR. Verify that any substitute maintains the same SOIC-20 package and electrical characteristics to ensure seamless integration without redesigning the circuit board layout.
