ON Semiconductor MC74ACT240DWR2G Octal Buffer/Line Driver

The MC74ACT240DWR2G from ON Semiconductor is a high-performance, octal buffer/line driver designed to provide feature-rich solutions for a wide array of digital applications. This integrated circuit is part of the ACT series, which is renowned for its robustness, high-speed operation, and compatibility with a broad range of voltage levels.

Constructed with BiCMOS technology, the MC74ACT240DWR2G offers the best of both bipolar and CMOS transistors, ensuring minimal power consumption while maintaining a high-speed output. The device features eight non-inverting buffers/line drivers with 3-state outputs, making it an ideal choice for driving bus lines or buffer memory address registers.

The octal buffer operates with a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V, which is typical for 5V logic level systems. This makes it compatible with TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) levels, allowing for seamless integration into existing designs or for use in new logic systems that require a 5V logic level.

Each buffer has a separate output enable pin, which can be used to place the output in a high-impedance state. This feature is particularly useful in applications where multiple devices are connected to a common bus, as it allows for selective data transmission and prevents bus contention.

The MC74ACT240DWR2G is available in a wide-body SOIC-20 package, providing a compact footprint while still offering ease of use for PCB designers. The device also boasts a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, ensuring reliable performance in various environmental conditions.

Key features of the MC74ACT240DWR2G include:

• Octal non-inverting buffer/line driver with 3-state outputs
