Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'G4' indicates lead-free compliance and RoHS adherence as per manufacturer standards. Confirm the TSSOP-20 package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the voltage levels of your driving source are compatible with the 2.7 V minimum threshold. Cross-reference the datasheet for any recent pinout revisions or thermal management guidelines associated with this specific revision code.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when eight buffered channels with three-state isolation are required for 3.3 V logic families. The LVT series offers faster switching speeds compared to standard LVX devices. Consider the TSSOP-20 package if space constraints favor smaller footprints over SOIC alternatives. Verify that the 64 mA low-level sink current meets the load requirements of your destination circuits without exceeding thermal limits.
