SN74LVC2G241YEPR

The SN74LVC2G241YEPR is a quad bus buffer with 3-state outputs. This device is a member of the LVC family of low voltage, low power CMOS logic devices that meet the requirements of industrial, consumer, and computer applications. It is designed to increase system performance in two primary ways. First, it helps enhance system design flexibility and improve data access times by increasing the I/O capacity of the system. Second, it widens the fan-out range and decreases transition times for data transfer.

Application Field

The SN74LVC2G241YEPR has several primary applications. It is used in bidirectional bus buffer, bus expansion, and bus fanout modifier functions. This device is designed to have optimal usage in 3V and 5V powered systems with fan-outs that range from 5 to 15 loads. Other applications include data I/O expansion, logic buffer conversion, and as a logic-level translator.

The fully static design of this device eliminates the need for an input or output clock and it does not require any chip enable control. This allows for direct connection of data bus lines in a larger system for bus expansion and reduced system power consumption. This device has the ability to drive up to 15 low-power CMOS outputs with the 12mA enable output pin.

Working Principle

The SN74LVC2G241YEPR features a four-channel buffer with both inverted (IOB) and non-inverted (IOA) outputs in a single 16-pin package. The outputs remain in a high-impedance state when not enabled. The enable pin, EN, must be kept high in order for the outputs to go low. When the enable input is low, the output will be in a high-impedance state.

The device has two separate power supply lines, VCCA and VCCB, for the two section of the device – IOA and IOB. The IOA section operates from 1.65V to 3.6V, and the IOB section operates from 2.0V to 3.6V. Each section has its own ground, GND A and GND B. This allows for different power supply ranges to be used in the two sections of the device.

The SN74LVC2G241YEPR features a low power advanced CMOS logic structure with input protection diodes. As the power supply to the device increases, the power dissipation decreases. This helps to prolong the product\'s operating life and increases overall system reliability. Additionally, the device features diodes on the output enabling pins that help protect the device in the event of an overvoltage condition.

The SN74LVC2G241YEPR is a quad bus buffer with 3-state outputs designed to provide system flexibility, increase data access times, widen the fan-out range and decrease transition times for data transfer. It is suitable for many applications, such as bidirectional bus buffer, bus expansion, and bus fanout modifier functions. The advanced CMOS logic structure with input protection diodes helps to extend the product\'s operating life and increase system reliability.
