Product details

Bus driver for 3.3 V logic buses

The 74LVC240APW/AU118 is an octal inverting bus driver from the LVC/LCX/Z series, designed for 3.3 V logic systems where signal buffering and line driving are needed. It takes eight input signals and delivers inverted outputs with the drive strength to handle moderate capacitive loads on a PCB backplane or memory bus. The LVC family is known for 5 V tolerant inputs even when running from a 3.3 V rail, which simplifies mixing legacy 5 V logic with newer low-voltage cores.

Bulk packaging for prototyping and small runs

For high-volume pick-and-place, the tape-and-reel version (typically 74LVC240APW,118) is the usual choice — verify the reel suffix with your assembler.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between 74LVC240APW and 74LVC244APW?

The 74LVC240 is an inverting bus driver (outputs are the logical inverse of inputs), while the 74LVC244 is a non-inverting buffer. Both are octal, same LVC family, same pin count and package options — the choice depends on whether your bus needs inversion or not.

Is 74LVC240APW/AU118 RoHS compliant?

The /AU118 suffix typically indicates a lead-free, RoHS-compliant finish per NXP's naming convention. Confirm the specific RoHS certificate with the supplier at quote time.
