74ABT245
Octal Bi-Directional Transceiver with 3-STATE Outputs
General Description
Features
The ABT245 contains eight non-inverting bidirectional buff-
ers with 3-STATE outputs and is intended for bus-oriented
applications. Current sinking capability is 64 mA on both
the A and B ports. The Transmit/Receive (T/R) input deter-
mines the direction of data flow through the bidirectional
transceiver. Transmit (active HIGH) enables data from A
Ports to B Ports; Receive (active LOW) enables data from
B Ports to A Ports. The Output Enable input, when HIGH,
disables both A and B ports by placing them in a HIGH Z
condition.
■ Bidirectional non-inverting buffers
■ A and B output sink capability of 64 mA, source
capability of 32 mA
■ Guaranteed output skew
■ Guaranteed multiple output switching specifications
■ Output switching specified for both 50 pF and 250 pF
loads
■ Guaranteed simultaneous switching, noise level and
dynamic threshold performance
■ Guaranteed latchup protection
■ High impedance glitch-free bus loading during entire
power up and power down cycle
■ Non-destructive hot insertion capability
■ Disable time is less than enable time to avoid bus
contention
