The SN74LVTH16240DLR is an IC component that belongs to the LVT (Low Voltage Translator) family, specifically designed for translating signals between different voltage levels. It is a 16-bit non-inverting buffer/driver with 3-state outputs, making it ideal for various applications including interfacing between buses operating at different logic levels. Here is an overview highlighting some of its key features:
1. Voltage level translation: The SN74LVTH16240DLR is capable of translating signals between two different voltage levels. It operates from a supply voltage of 2.5V to 3.6V on one side (VCCA) and 2.5V to 5.5V on the other side (VCCB). This enables seamless communication between logic circuits running at different voltages.
2. High-speed operation: With a maximum operating frequency of 230MHz, this component ensures swift data transmission. It performs high-speed logic-level shifting, making it suitable for applications that demand quick and efficient signal translation.
3. 3-state outputs: The IC features 3-state outputs, which means it can be put into a high-impedance state (disconnected) when not actively driving the bus. This capability is useful for preventing bus contention and allowing multiple devices to share the same bus without interfering with each other
