CD54HCT245F — high-speed CMOS octal bus transceiver
It operates with HCT input-level compatibility, making it a direct drop-in for systems originally designed for LSTTL logic while offering the power savings of CMOS. Typical applications include bus-oriented systems in industrial control, telecommunications, and instrumentation where bidirectional data transfer and bus isolation are required.
Lifecycle and sourcing reality
No last-time-buy or phase-out notice is associated with this part; it is suitable for both new designs and ongoing production without near-term obsolescence risk.
What the active lifecycle means for your BOM
An active lifecycle rating means no immediate pressure to qualify a substitute or secure last-time-buy inventory. The CD54HCT245F is not a candidate for the surplus or broker channel as a routine sourcing strategy — standard distributor stock is the appropriate path.
