Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'DW' confirms the standard SOIC-20 package variant rather than tape-and-reel or alternative casing options. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to procurement. Check component lifecycle status as availability may be limited due to production phase changes.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring high-density octal buffering with wide voltage tolerance. Ensure the application demands the specific propagation delay characteristics associated with the LV series. Verify that the thermal requirements align with the -40°C to +125°C operational range for industrial environments.
