Product Overview

SN74HC245NSR is a Texas Instruments octal bus transceiver in the Signal_Chain category. Its function is asynchronous two-way communication between data buses using 3-state outputs. The DIR input selects A-to-B or B-to-A data transmission, and the OE input disables the device for bus isolation when the outputs must be placed in the off state.

The device operates from a recommended 2 V to 6 V supply range, with 5 V identified as a nominal supply condition. Recommended input and output voltage ranges are 0 V to VCC, and the specified operating free-air temperature range for SN74HC245 is -40°C to 85°C. Logic thresholds scale with VCC, including VIH minimums of 1.5 V at 2 V, 3.15 V at 4.5 V, and 4.2 V at 6 V.

For assembly planning, this ordering entry uses the NS package, described as SO/SOP with 20 pins and a 12.60 mm × 5.30 mm nominal body. Electrical limits include ±35 mA continuous output current and ±70 mA continuous current through VCC or GND under absolute maximum ratings.
