The SN74ABT241AN is a high-performance, octal buffer and line driver designed specifically to improve both the performance and density of three-state memory address drivers, clock drivers, and bus-oriented receivers and transmitters. Manufactured by Texas Instruments, this integrated circuit is part of their ABT (Advanced BiCMOS Technology) family, offering a perfect blend of speed and power consumption.

With its two-state outputs, the SN74ABT241AN is capable of driving heavily loaded outputs with the highest level of efficiency, making it an ideal choice for interfacing with bus lines in a memory buffer or bus-oriented system. Each octal buffer and line driver features two separate output-enable (OE) inputs for greater flexibility in application.

Key Features:

• State-of-the-Art EPIC-B BiCMOS Design: Significantly reduces power dissipation while maintaining high-speed operation.
• High-Drive Outputs: -32-mA IOH and 64-mA IOL on both the A and B ports, providing excellent drive capabilities.
• 3-State Outputs: Drive bus lines or buffer memory address registers with the freedom to disable the output stage, allowing multiple devices to share a bus line.
• Multiple Output-Enable Inputs: Offers greater control and flexibility in application.
• Package: Housed in a standard 20-pin DIP (Dual In-line Package), making it suitable for a broad range of applications and easy to integrate into existing designs.

Applications:

The SN74ABT241AN is commonly used in digital systems where high speed, low power dissipation, and high noise immunity are required. Its applications span across:

• Memory Drivers
• Buffer Memory Address Registers
• Clock Drivers
• Bus-Oriented Systems

As a versatile and reliable component from Texas Instruments, the SN74ABT241AN is a staple in the design of high-speed digital systems that demand robust performance with efficient power usage.
