SAB8287AP Octal Bus Transceiver 5V 90mA IC DIP-20
The SAB8287A is an 8-bit bipolar bus transceiver that provides bidirectional data transfer and bus buffering with three-state outputs and dedicated control inputs for direction and output enable. It is the inverting member of the SAB8286/SAB8287 family, so inputs on the A-side are presented inverted on the B-side (useful where logic inversion is required between subsystems). Direction is controlled by the T (TRANSMIT) input and outputs are gated by the active-LOW OE (OUTPUT ENABLE) control, allowing easy interfacing to microprocessor and system buses.
Designed for 5 V systems, the device offers robust output drive for system-level loads and supports a high-impedance (three-state) mode to allow multiple devices to share the bus without output low-glitches when entering/leaving the high-Z state. It was commonly used as a data bus buffer/driver in systems based on SAB8086/SAB80286 families and other microcomputer architectures that require reliable, bidirectional 8-bit bus interfacing.
Features:
- 8-bit bidirectional bus transceiver (octal).
- Inverting outputs (SAB8287A variant).
- Three-state outputs for bus sharing and isolation.
- Direction control (T) and active-LOW output enable (OE) pins.
- Designed as a data-bus buffer/driver for microcomputer systems.
- Low output noise when entering/leaving high-impedance state.
