Product details

Octal inverting buffer with 3-state — 74HC240 in a compact DHVQFN

The NXP 74HC240BQ/C4115 is an octal inverting buffer with 3-state outputs from the 74HC family, designed for bus-oriented applications requiring signal inversion and output disable capability. The two elements, each handling four bits, provide eight inverting channels with a balanced 7.8mA sink and source drive at both output states.

The wide temperature grade eliminates the need to derate or qualify a separate industrial-tier variant for mixed-temperature BOM lines.

20-DHVQFN with exposed pad — layout notes

The 0.5 mm pitch fine-pitch QFN calls for a controlled impedance PCB if the bus traces run longer than a few centimetres at 5V edge rates. The supplier device package is 20-DHVQFN (4.5x2.5).

Listed with an active product status, the 74HC240BQ carries no last-time-buy or end-of-life notice. For production BOMs that need a second-source hedge, the 74HC240 footprint is broadly second-sourced across multiple logic vendors — qualify an alternate now rather than single-source it.

Frequently asked questions

What is 74HC240BQ/C4115 used for?

It is an octal inverting buffer with 3-state outputs, used for bus isolation, signal inversion, and driving capacitive loads in digital systems. Typical applications include memory address buffers, data bus transceivers, and general-purpose line driving in 3.3V or 5V logic environments.
