Buffer, Non-Inverting 1 Element 8 Bit per Element 3-State Output 20-DIP
The SN74F541N is an octal Buffer/Line Driver with 3-state outputs and ideal for driving bus lines or buffering memory address registers. The device features inputs and outputs to facilitate printed-circuit-board layout. The 3-state control gate is a 2-input AND gate with active-low inputs so that if either output enable input is high, all eight outputs are in the high-impedance state. The SN54F541 is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of -55 to 125°C.
General Description The 74F540 and 74F541 are similar in function to the 74F240 and 74F244 respectively, except that the inputs and outputs are on opposite sides of the package (see Connection Diagrams). This pinout arrangement makes these devices especially useful as output ports for microprocessors, allowing ease of layout and greater PC board density. Features ■3-STATE outputs drive bus lines ■Inputs and outputs opposite side of package, allowing easier interface to microprocessors
