The SN74AHCT16541DLR contains two independent 8-bit elements, each with its own output-enable control. The 3-state outputs allow the buffer to be placed in high-impedance when the bus is driven by another source. Do not try to run it at 3.3V — the 74AHCT family is not specified below 4.5V. The 8mA source and sink capability is moderate: enough to drive a few CMOS inputs or a short trace, but plan on a fan-out buffer or transceiver if the bus runs across a backplane or into a high-capacitance load. Packaged in a 48-BSSOP body (0.295" wide, 7.50 mm), the supplier device package is 48-SSOP.
RoHS3 compliance (ROHS3 Compliant) means it meets the latest EU RoHS directive without exemptions. No special handling or documentation is needed for EU or California market shipments.
This part is available to order through independent distribution. We source it against an RFQ, confirming current pricing and availability at the time of quotation. The active lifecycle means you can commit it to a BOM line without worrying about a sudden discontinuation — but as with any semiconductor, lead times can shift, so we recommend quoting ahead of production.
