10-bit bus driver — what this part does
The 74BCT2827CSCX is a 10-bit bus driver from the * series, designed to buffer and drive heavily loaded parallel data buses in digital systems.
RoHS non-compliant — what it means for your BOM
This part is RoHS non-compliant, which means it contains lead (Pb) in the solder finish or internal construction.
Active lifecycle — no LTB pressure
The 74BCT2827CSCX carries an Active lifecycle status, meaning the manufacturer continues to produce it with no announced end-of-life or last-time-buy window. For a BOM line, this removes the urgency of lifetime-buy calculations or substitute qualification — you can order this part for new designs and ongoing production without near-term obsolescence risk.
Bulk packaging — order quantity and handling
For a pick-and-place machine, Bulk requires a tube feeder or tray handler — verify your line's feeder compatibility. Bulk also means the unit price may differ from the tape-and-reel variant of the same die, and minimum order quantities are often lower.
