The SN74LVT245BPWR is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the family of 74 series high-speed, low-voltage, octal bus transceivers with 3-state outputs. This component is manufactured by Texas Instruments and is widely used in various digital electronic applications.
The SN74LVT245BPWR features eight bidirectional channels that allow data transmission between two buses both in the same or opposite directions. It acts as a buffer, ensuring efficient and reliable data transfer across different parts of a digital system.
One of the key features of this IC component is its compatibility with both 3.3V and 5V power supply systems. The SN74LVT245BPWR operates within a voltage range of 2.7V to 3.6V and is designed to support 5V TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) input and output levels. This versatility makes it suitable for use in systems that require voltage level translation or interfacing between different logic levels.
The SN74LVT245BPWR also provides 3-state outputs, which enable multiple devices to share the same bus without data corruption or conflicts. This tri-state function allows the outputs to be actively driven low or high, or to be effectively disconnected from the bus by entering a high-impedance state. Consequently, it facilitates the sharing of data between multiple devices connected to the same bus line
