SN74HCT541PW Description

The SN74HCT541PW is an 8-bit non-inverting buffer and line driver from Texas Instruments' 74HCT series, designed for high-speed CMOS logic applications. Housed in a 20-pin TSSOP package, this surface-mount IC operates within a 4.5V to 5.5V supply range, making it ideal for 5V TTL-compatible systems. With a robust 6mA output current (sink/source), it ensures reliable signal integrity in noisy environments. The device is RoHS3 compliant and adheres to REACH regulations, meeting global environmental standards. Its unlimited Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1) ensures durability during storage and handling.

SN74HCT541PW Features

• High-Speed CMOS Logic: Combines TTL input compatibility with low-power CMOS technology for efficient performance.
• Balanced Output Drive: 6mA symmetrical output current minimizes signal distortion in bidirectional applications.
• Wide Voltage Range: Operates at 4.5V–5.5V, suitable for mixed-voltage systems.
• Non-Inverting Buffers: Preserves signal polarity, critical for data bus and clock distribution.
• Robust Packaging: 20-TSSOP offers space efficiency and thermal performance for dense PCB layouts.
• Enhanced Reliability: MSL 1 rating ensures resilience against moisture-related damage during assembly.

SN74HCT541PW Applications

• Bus Interface: Ideal for microprocessor/microcontroller data buses due to high drive strength and TTL compatibility.
