Product details

What this inverting buffer does for your bus

Each of the two elements handles four bits, and the 3-state outputs let you share a data bus cleanly — pull the output-enable pins high and the outputs go high-impedance, not fighting the line.

Supply range and temperature — where it works

Rated from 1.65V to 3.6V, this part covers the common low-voltage logic rails. The 24mA symmetric output drive (both high and low) is enough to drive a handful of CMOS inputs or a short twisted-pair stub on a backplane.

Housed in a 20-TSSOP package (4.40mm body width), it is a surface-mount part. No special MSL handling beyond standard precautions — but as with any TSSOP, verify the solder-paste stencil aperture for the 0.65mm pitch to avoid bridging.

Frequently asked questions

Is SN74LVC240APWT compatible with 5V logic?

The supply voltage range is 1.65V to 3.6V, so the device itself is not 5V-tolerant on the inputs or outputs. For a 5V bus, use a 5V-tolerant logic family like 74LVTH or add a level shifter. The 74LVTH16245 is a non-inverting transceiver option that handles 5V on the bus side.
