The IC component 74LCX126MTCX is a Quad Bus Buffer with 3-state outputs, specifically designed for low-voltage applications. It is a part of the 74LCX series, which ensures compatibility with both CMOS and LVTTL (low voltage TTL) logic families.
Key features of the 74LCX126MTCX include:
1. Low-voltage operation: The IC operates within a wide voltage range, from 2.0V to 3.6V. This makes it suitable for various low-power applications, reducing power consumption.
2. High-speed performance: The component offers fast propagation delay and transition times, allowing for efficient data transfer between different devices.
3. 3-state outputs: Each of the four channels on the IC has a 3-state output capability. This means the outputs can be set to high impedance (Hi-Z) mode when not actively driving signals, enabling multiple devices to share the same bus without interference.
4. Schmitt trigger inputs: The 74LCX126MTCX features Schmitt trigger inputs, resulting in increased noise immunity and hysteresis, which aids in achieving stable and reliable operation in noisy environments.
5. Power-down protection: It incorporates a power-down protection mechanism that prevents data corruption during power-up or power-down conditions
