The MC74ACT241DWR2 is an IC (integrated circuit) component manufactured by ON Semiconductor. It belongs to the ACT (Advanced CMOS Technology) family and is designed as an octal buffer/line driver with 3-state outputs. Here's an overview of its key features:
1. 8-bit Buffer/Line Driver: The MC74ACT241DWR2 is an octal device, meaning it has 8 independent buffer/line driver channels. Each channel can handle both input and output signals, making it suitable for various applications.
2. 3-State Outputs: This component features 3-state outputs, which means the outputs can be enabled, disabled, or put in a high-impedance (Hi-Z) state. The Hi-Z state allows multiple devices to share a common bus, preventing signal contention and facilitating bus control.
3. High-Speed Operation: The MC74ACT241DWR2 is designed to operate at high speeds, making it suitable for applications where fast signal propagation is essential. It offers a propagation delay of typically 4.5 ns, allowing rapid data transfer and communication.
4. CMOS Technology: Being part of the ACT family, this IC component utilizes CMOS technology, combining high-speed performance with low power consumption. CMOS technology ensures low power dissipation, making it efficient for battery-powered devices or applications with strict power requirements
