CD74ACT541M Description

The CD74ACT541M from Texas Instruments is a high-performance 8-bit non-inverting buffer/driver designed for 4.5V to 5.5V operation, making it ideal for 5V logic systems. Housed in a 20-pin SOIC package, this device is part of the 74ACT series, known for its advanced CMOS technology that combines low power consumption with high-speed operation. It features 24mA output drive capability (both high and low), ensuring robust signal integrity in demanding applications. With RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, it meets modern environmental standards while offering unlimited moisture sensitivity (MSL 1) for extended shelf life.

CD74ACT541M Features

• 8-bit non-inverting buffer with single-element design for simplified circuit integration.
• Wide voltage range (4.5V–5.5V), compatible with TTL-level inputs for versatile interfacing.
• High output current (24mA sink/source) enables driving heavy loads, such as buses or multiple gates.
• Low power consumption typical of ACT series, with fast propagation delays (<10ns) for high-speed systems.
• Surface-mount (SOIC) packaging saves board space, suited for automated assembly processes.
• Robust ESD protection and wide operating temperature range enhance reliability in industrial environments.

CD74ACT541M Applications

• Bus buffering/isolation in microprocessor/microcontroller systems to prevent signal degradation.
• Memory address/data line driving in computing and telecom equipment.
• Level translation between 5V logic and lower-voltage peripherals.
• Industrial control systems requiring noise immunity and high drive strength.
• Automotive electronics where wide voltage tolerance and durability are critical.

Conclusion of CD74ACT541M

The CD74ACT541M stands out as a high-speed, high-drive buffer with exceptional signal integrity, making it a preferred choice for 5V logic applications. Its balance of performance, power efficiency, and reliability makes it superior to older 74HC or 74LS alternatives. Whether used in data communication, computing, or industrial automation, this device delivers consistent performance under varying load conditions. Texas Instruments' reputation for quality further ensures its suitability for mission-critical designs.
