SN74HC241PWT

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74HC241PWR 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 supports a recommended operating temperature of -40°C to +85°C. The device features two independent 4-bit buffers with separate output-enable inputs (1OE and 2OE). Key electrical characteristics include a maximum static current of 80 μA, typical propagation delay of 11 ns at 4.5 V, and high-current outputs capable of driving up to 15 LSTTL loads.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Provides non-inverted data transmission from A inputs to Y outputs when enabled.
• Outputs enter a high-impedance state when respective output-enable inputs are inactive.
• Designed to improve performance and density for bus-oriented receivers and transmitters.
