74240 Octal 3-STATE Buffer/Line Driver/Line Receiver IC PDIP-20
The 74240 Octal 3-STATE Buffer/Line Driver/Line Receiver IC PDIP-20 is an octal buffer/line driver/line receiver device designed for bus-oriented systems, memory-address driving and clock distribution, providing 3-STATE outputs, PNP inputs for reduced DC loading, input hysteresis for improved noise rejection, and a standard PDIP-20 through-hole package for easy prototyping and retrofit applications.
Features:
- Eight buffered inverting/noninverting channels with 3-STATE outputs suitable for bus interfacing and multiplexed systems.
- PNP input structure reduces DC loading on data and bus lines for improved signal integrity.
- Input hysteresis (typically 0.2–0.4V) for enhanced noise margin at data inputs.
- High sink capability with typical IOL= 24mA and moderate source capability with typical IOH= −15mA.
- Fast switching for TTL designs with typical propagation delays in the low-tens of nanoseconds range.
- Low off-state leakage (IOZ typically ±20µA) to minimize bus contention when outputs are disabled.
- Enables driving terminated lines down to 133Ω and supports high fanout configurations.
