The 74ACT241SJX is a high-speed octal buffer and line driver integrated circuit (IC). It is part of the ACT family of IC components, which are designed for high-performance applications. This IC provides non-inverting buffers with 3-state outputs, making it suitable for various input/output (I/O) applications.
Key features of the 74ACT241SJX include:
1. High-Speed Operation: The IC operates at a high-speed range, making it ideal for applications where fast signal propagation is required.
2. Octal Buffer and Line Driver: It features eight bidirectional buffers with separate input and output terminals. These buffers can be used to transfer data between different circuits while ensuring proper signal integrity.
3. 3-State Outputs: The IC offers 3-state outputs for all eight buffers. This means that the output can be either high, low, or in a high-impedance state, allowing for flexible interfacing with other circuits.
4. Schmitt Trigger Inputs: The 74ACT241SJX incorporates Schmitt trigger inputs, which provide hysteresis and improve noise immunity. This feature ensures that the IC can tolerate noisy input signals without affecting its performance and reliability.
5. Wide Operating Voltage Range: It can operate within a wide voltage range from 4.5V to 5.5V, making it compatible with various supply voltages commonly used in digital systems
