ON Semiconductor MC74ACT245DW Product Overview

The MC74ACT245DW from ON Semiconductor is a high-performance, non-inverting octal bus transceiver designed to provide bidirectional communication between data buses. This integrated circuit is capable of transmitting data from the A bus to the B bus or from the B bus to the A bus, depending on the logic level at the direction control (DIR) input. The transmission is enabled by the output enable (OE) input, which when low, activates the device.

This transceiver is a part of the 74ACT family, which means it is fabricated with advanced CMOS technology to achieve high-speed operation while maintaining CMOS low power dissipation. This makes the MC74ACT245DW suitable for interfacing with 5V systems and has the capability to drive 24mA at the outputs.
