The SN74LVT245BGQNR is a high-speed octal bus transceiver integrated circuit (IC) designed for both asynchronous and synchronous transmission of data between parallel buses. This IC component is part of the SN74LVT family, which utilizes low-voltage CMOS (complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor) technology.
Here are some key features and characteristics of the SN74LVT245BGQNR:
1. Bi-directional Communication: The IC allows bidirectional data flow between two independent buses. It can be used to interface between microprocessors or other digital devices that operate at different voltage levels.
2. Voltage Translation Capability: The SN74LVT245BGQNR supports voltage translation from any voltage level ranging between 1.65V and 5.5V. This feature makes it compatible with a wide range of low-voltage systems, enhancing its versatility.
3. 3-state Outputs: The IC has 8 lines (octal) with 3-state outputs, meaning each data line can assume one of three states: logic high, logic low, or high-impedance (disconnected). This feature allows multiple devices to share a common bus without interfering with each other's signals.
4. High-Speed Operation: The SN74LVT245BGQNR operates at a high-speed, making it suitable for applications where fast data transmission is required. It has a maximum propagation delay of 4.2ns, enabling quick data exchanges between buses
