SN74LVC240APWG4

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74LVC240APWG4 is an octal buffer and line driver manufactured by Texas Instruments, belonging to the LVC logic family. It features eight non-inverting buffers with three-state outputs housed in a TSSOP-14 package. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 3.6 V and supports low output currents of 24 mA at both high and low states. It exhibits a typical propagation delay of 4.5 ns at 3.3 V and maintains a maximum operating temperature of 125 °C.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Provides eight non-inverting buffer channels for signal conditioning
• Features three-state outputs for bus-oriented memory and circuit control
• Operates across a wide 1.65 V to 3.6 V power supply range
• Supports hot insertion applications through low inrush current characteristics

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'G4' indicates lead-free composition and RoHS compliance as per Texas Instruments standards. Confirm the TSSOP-14 package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the 1.65 V to 3.6 V supply range aligns with your target logic voltage levels. Check for any recent lifecycle notices regarding obsolescence or replacement recommendations from the manufacturer.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when requiring multiple buffered outputs with controllable tri-state functionality in a compact surface-mount package. The LVC series offers improved speed and lower power consumption compared to older LV technologies. Consider the 24 mA drive capability for driving moderate capacitive loads or short traces. Verify that the 1.65 V minimum voltage meets your lowest system operating condition.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LVC240A family of octal buffers with three-state outputs. The 'G4' suffix typically denotes a lead-free and RoHS-compliant variant produced by Texas Instruments. It serves as a digital logic interface component designed for high-speed data transmission and system bus management in consumer and industrial electronics.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible alternatives include the SN74LVC240APW (non-G4) or SN74LVC240APWR. Cross-family replacements like the SN74LV240 may require voltage level adjustments. Always verify electrical specifications and package dimensions before substituting.
