TC74VCX125FTEL

Overview

The TC74VCX125FTEL is a quad bus buffer manufactured by Toshiba Semiconductor and Storage, featuring non-inverting logic within the VCX series. It operates on a supply voltage range of 1.2V to 3.6V and utilizes a 14-TSSOP surface-mount package. The device provides three-state outputs with a low-level output current of 24mA and a high-level output current of -24mA. It supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides four independent one-bit buffers with true (non-inverting) output polarity
• Features three-state outputs controlled by active-low enable signals
• Supports wide supply voltage operation from 1.2V to 3.6V for flexible system integration

Applications

• Bus-oriented memory and address drivers
• Clock drivers and buffering
• Capacitively loaded outputs
• Highly noisy environments or ground bounce applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'FTEL' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm the exact tape and reel packaging configuration. Ensure the component meets RoHS compliance requirements for your target market. Cross-reference the ordering information directly with Toshiba Semiconductor and Storage documentation to avoid discrepancies in package type or electrical characteristics.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad bus buffer with three-state capability is required for low-voltage digital systems. The VCX series offers high-speed performance suitable for modern interface standards. Consider the 14-TSSOP package dimensions for PCB layout constraints. Verify that the input and output voltage levels are compatible with the connected logic families in the design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the TC74VCX family of CMOS logic integrated circuits designed for low-voltage applications. The VCX series is characterized by high speed and low power consumption, making it suitable for portable and battery-operated devices. It complements other logic gates and drivers within the Toshiba semiconductor portfolio.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible alternatives within the same VCX series or comparable LVC/LCX families from other manufacturers. Ensure substitute parts match the 14-TSSOP package and electrical specifications before implementation.
