SN74LV541ATPWR

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74LV541ATPWR is an octal buffer and line driver from the Texas Instruments LV logic family, housed in a 20-pin TSSOP package. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.0 V to 3.6 V. The device features eight unidirectional channels with three-state outputs controlled by active-low enable inputs. Key electrical specifications include a maximum propagation delay of 8 ns at 3.3 V and output drive capabilities of ±24 mA for both high and low states. It supports a load capacitance of up to 50 pF and functions reliably across an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Provides eight unidirectional signal paths with independent control via active-low output enable inputs
• Delivers strong output drive capability suitable for driving buses and high-capacitance loads
• Ensures signal integrity through controlled switching speeds and low internal noise generation

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Memory module address and data bus buffering
• Clock distribution networks requiring precise timing control
• General-purpose bidirectional bus translation interfaces

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific tape-and-reel quantity against the manufacturer's standard packaging configuration before ordering. Confirm that the TSSOP-20 footprint matches the target PCB design guidelines. Ensure the selected component meets the required RoHS compliance standards for the intended market. Cross-reference the date code to ensure compatibility with current manufacturing processes.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring wide voltage operation between 2.0 V and 3.6 V with robust drive strength. It is appropriate for applications needing eight buffered channels in a compact surface-mount package. Consider alternative packages if higher pin counts or different thermal dissipation characteristics are required for the specific enclosure constraints.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LV541A series of octal buffers and drivers. It shares functional similarities with other members of the LV family but differs in packaging and specific electrical tolerances. The TPWR suffix indicates the TSSOP-20 package variant with specific reel handling characteristics defined by the manufacturer.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

SN74LV541APWR is a direct equivalent offering identical functionality in a standard TSSOP-20 package without the 'A' grade designation.
