The 74LVTH240SJX is a high-performance buffer/inverter IC (integrated circuit) component manufactured by Texas Instruments. It belongs to the 74LVTH series, which is known for its low voltage and high-speed operations. The 74LVTH240SJX is an octal inverting buffer with 3-state outputs. Here is an overview of its key features:
1. Supply Voltage: The IC operates at a low voltage, typically between 2.7V and 3.6V. This feature makes it ideal for applications where power consumption needs to be minimized.
2. High-Speed Performance: The 74LVTH240SJX is designed for high-speed operations with a maximum propagation delay of 3.8 ns. This enables fast data transmission and processing, making it suitable for applications that require quick response times.
3. 3-State Outputs: The IC features 3-state outputs, which allow multiple devices to be connected to the same output line. The 3-state control input allows the outputs to be in the high-impedance state, meaning they are effectively disconnected from the output line.
4. Octal Inverting Buffer: The 74LVTH240SJX has eight independent buffer gates with inverting functionality. Each buffer gate can be used to amplify and invert digital signals, providing signal conditioning and level shifting capabilities
