description

These octal buffers and line drivers are designed specifically to improve the performance and density of 3-state memory address drivers, clock drivers, and bus-oriented receivers and transmitters.

The 'AC241 are organized as two 4-bit buffers/drivers with separate complementary output-enable (1 and 2OE) inputs. When 1 is low or 2OE is high, the device passes noninverted data from the A inputs to the Y outputs. When 1 is high or 2OE is low, the outputs are in the high-impedance state.

The SN54AC241 is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The SN74AC241 is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
