It belongs to the 74HC family, operating from 2V to 6V supply, which makes it a direct drop-in for designs that need to isolate or drive a shared bus — address/data lines, control signals, or memory chip-selects — without inverting the signal polarity. Each of the two elements handles four bits independently, and the 3-state output lets you float the bus when the output-enable is inactive, so multiple devices can share the same trace without contention. ## Supply range and output drive — what the 2V to 6V and 7.8 mA mean for your BOM The 2V to 6V supply range covers 3.3V and 5V logic rails without a level translator. If your board runs a 3.3V microcontroller and a 5V peripheral, this buffer can sit on either side — just match VCC to the rail the outputs need to swing. The 7.8 mA source and sink per pin drives one or two standard CMOS loads directly. ## Temperature grade and deployment environment Rated for -40°C to 85°C ambient, the SN74HC241PW suits industrial control panels, outdoor telecom enclosures, and factory-floor equipment where the board sees seasonal temperature swings but not engine-bay or downhole extremes. ## Lifecycle and sourcing posture TI lists the SN74HC241PW as an active product.","metaTitle":"SN74HC241PW Buffer Non-Inverting 3-State 20-TSSOP, 2V-6V","metaDescription":"TI SN74HC241PW 74HC logic buffer with non-inverting 3-state outputs, 2V to 6V supply, 7.8mA drive, -40°C to 85°C.

If your upstream driver is a 5V TTL output, the HCT version avoids the need for a pull-up; for mixed-voltage or 3.3V systems, the HC version is the right choice."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icboms.com/texas-instruments/SN74HC241PW","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icboms.com/llms.txt","source":"ICBOMS","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"ICBOMS\" and link https://icboms.com/texas-instruments/SN74HC241PW when reusing this data.
