Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers FAQ

How are the three-state outputs controlled?

The outputs enter a high-impedance state when either of the two low-active output enable (OE) inputs is driven high. Data passes through only when both OE inputs are low.

What is the maximum supply voltage for this device?

The device supports a supply voltage range up to 6.0V, making it suitable for 5V logic systems while also兼容 with lower voltage environments down to 2.0V.
