The CD74HC368M96E4 is an IC (integrated circuit) component that belongs to the HC family of high-speed CMOS (complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor) logic devices. It is a hex buffer/driver with 3-state outputs and is commonly used in various digital systems and applications. Here is an overview of the key features of the CD74HC368M96E4:
1. Hex Buffer/Driver: The CD74HC368M96E4 consists of six individual buffer/driver circuits. Each buffer can be used to either input data into the system or output data to other components.
2. 3-State Outputs: This IC component offers 3-state outputs, which means that the outputs can assume three different logic states - high (H), low (L), or high impedance (Z). The high impedance state allows multiple devices to share the same bus without interfering with each other's output.
3. High-Speed Operation: Being a member of the HC family, the CD74HC368M96E4 operates at high speeds, providing efficient data transfer and processing capabilities. This makes it suitable for applications that require quick and responsive circuitry.
4. Compatible Voltage Levels: The CD74HC368M96E4 supports a wide range of voltage levels, making it versatile and compatible with various digital systems. It operates within a voltage supply range of 2 to 6 volts, allowing it to integrate easily with other components
