Active production, hermetic ceramic package
The 5962-9220301M2A: The part is a Buffer, Non-Inverting with 3-State outputs, packaged in a 20-lead ceramic LCC (20-LCC, 8.89x8.89 mm body). The hermetic ceramic package and -55°C to 125°C operating range place it in the military/hi-rel temperature grade — suitable for avionics, satellite, and downhole applications where commercial plastic packages cannot survive the thermal cycle or outgassing requirements.
Supply rails and output drive for backplane buffering
Runs on a single 4.5V to 5.5V supply — compatible with standard 5V TTL and CMOS logic families. The 2-element, 4-bit-per-element configuration gives eight total buffer channels in one package, saving board space compared to discrete single-gate buffers. Output drive capability is 12 mA source and 48 mA sink at the rated supply. The asymmetric drive — stronger sink than source — is typical for 3-State bus buffers driving capacitive backplane traces or multiple fan-out loads. The 48 mA sink handles the summed input current of several downstream TTL loads without needing an external bus driver.
Surface-mount assembly and procurement posture
Surface-mount assembly in the 20-LCC ceramic package. The LCC footprint has JEDEC-standard pad geometry; the ceramic body is compatible with standard reflow profiles for hermetic components. No moisture sensitivity level concern — ceramic LCC does not absorb moisture, so no bake-out required before reflow. The Active lifecycle means no last-time-buy constraints for new designs.
