The 74AC540SJ, from Texas Instruments, is a single 5V CMOS 4-bit buffer/line driver. It is a member of the AC540 family of high-performance, low-power trigate devices, and is a favorite choice for TTL to CMOS, or CMOS to CMOS buffering solution. With a number of features and specifications, the 74AC540SJ is well-suited in a variety of applications. The working principle and some of the features allow it to be used in a wide range of situations.

Application Field

The 74AC540SJ is ideal for applications such as data transmission, data transfer, clock buffering, switch drive, and other high-speed switching between circuits. Its low-power consumption, fast propagation time, and flat output impedance profile save significant energy. It can be used for data transfer between two circuits of different voltage levels, for example for ECL and TTL, which can be used in audio and video device control, telecommunications, computer processing and in various control systems. The 74AC540SJ is also suitable for logic-level up or down conversion in digital electronics. Its low-power operation makes it suitable for use in all kinds of battery-operated devices. It is also well-suited for applications of commercial-power digital systems, due to its low-power and low-output long-term stability options.

Working Principle

The 74AC540SJ consists of 4 standard three-state trigate buffers with their respective inverting and non-inverting outputs. The basic arrangement of the 74AC540SJ is to provide a single 5V power source to four independently operating buffers. Each individual buffer has common input and output pins, allowing for operation from a single source. The buffer also includes an output enable pin. This enables control of each individual buffer; in turn, allowing more flexibility when dealing with complicated circuits.

The output of the buffer can be enabled by the output enable pin. When the Output Enable pin is active, the output of the buffer is enabled and will drive data to its respective output pin. Otherwise, the buffer will remain in an inactive state, but the data on the input pins remains intact.

The 74AC540SJ buffers operate over the full operating voltage range of 2 V to 5.5 V. This is possible due to the employment of a wide supply range CMOS technology. Due to the use of this technology, the 74AC540SJ can drive up to 20 mA of load current, while maintaining its output level. Additionally, the device outputs can be switched from logic 0 to logic 1 and vice-versa within 5ns.

In addition to the standard three-state buffers, the 74AC540SJ includes an additional buffer for the output enable pin. This buffer is used to provide a more stable output enable control signal. With this pin, the output enable transitions can be controlled in a more predictable manner.

Due to its unique advantages as described above, the 74AC540SJ is a favorite choice for high-speed buffering solutions. Its specifications allow it to be used in applications such as digital switching, logic-level conversion, and data transfer between different types of devices.
