74ALVCH245MTC

The 74ALVCH245MTC is a widely used integrated circuit component that belongs to the 74 series of logic ICs (integrated circuits). It is specifically classified as a tri-state octal bus transceiver, meaning it is designed to facilitate the bidirectional transfer of data between two independent buses or systems. Below are some key features and specifications of the 74ALVCH245MTC: 1. Octal Bus Transceiver: The IC has 8 data input/output (I/O) pins, allowing transmission of 8 bits of data at a time. It can be used to transfer data bidirectionally between two buses or systems. 2. Tri-State Outputs: The outputs of the IC have a tri-state feature, which means they can be put in a high impedance state (disconnected) when not in use. This feature allows multiple transceivers to be connected to a common bus without interference. 3. Voltage Level Translation: The IC is compatible with both 3.3V and 5V voltage levels, making it suitable for use in mixed voltage systems. It supports bidirectional voltage translation; thus, it can interface between devices operating at different voltage levels. 4. Low Power Consumption: The IC operates at low power, making it energy-efficient and suitable for battery-powered applications. It has a Power-Off Protection feature, which ensures the bus retains its last states even when the power supply is disconnected
