Key Features
- Non-inverting octal bus driver with dual active-low output enable for precise bus control in digital systems
- 24 mA output drive current per channel in AC-family CMOS logic for driving heavily loaded signal lines
- Tape-and-reel packaging (M96 suffix) in 20-pin SOIC enables efficient high-volume automated assembly
Applications
The CD74AC541M96G4 is used as a unidirectional bus buffer and line driver in microprocessor systems where address or data lines must drive multiple load devices simultaneously. It is commonly deployed in memory bus interfaces, backplane drivers, and digital system buffering applications that require strong drive capability with minimal propagation delay. The dual output enable pins allow the device to be selectively enabled by system control logic, supporting bus arbitration in multi-master designs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the CD74AC541 and CD74AC540?
The CD74AC541M96G4 is a non-inverting octal bus driver, while the CD74AC540 is an inverting version. The CD74AC541 passes the logic state of each input directly to the corresponding output, whereas the CD74AC540 inverts each signal. Both share the same 20-pin SOIC package, 24 mA drive current, and dual active-low output enable controls.
What does the M96 suffix mean in CD74AC541M96G4?
The M suffix indicates the 20-pin SOIC surface-mount package, and the 96 suffix denotes that the device is packaged in tape-and-reel format with 2500 units per reel. The G4 suffix indicates RoHS compliance and green packaging. This format is optimized for high-volume automated PCB assembly using pick-and-place equipment.
How do the dual output enable pins work on the CD74AC541M96G4?
The CD74AC541M96G4 has two active-low output enable inputs (OE1 and OE2). Both pins must be asserted LOW simultaneously to enable all 8 outputs. If either enable pin is HIGH, all outputs enter a high-impedance tri-state condition, allowing multiple drivers to share a common bus without electrical contention.
What is the load capacitance rating of the CD74AC541M96G4?
The CD74AC541M96G4 is characterized with a 50 pF load capacitance per output pin, which is the standard test condition used for measuring propagation delay and output transition times. Higher capacitive loads on the outputs will increase propagation delay and slow rise/fall times, which must be considered when designing high-frequency digital bus systems.
