Frequently Asked Questions
What is the output drive capability of the SN74ACT240PW?
The SN74ACT240PW provides a maximum output low current (I_OL) of 24mA, making it suitable for driving bus lines with up to 50pF load capacitance. This drive strength is typical of the ACT logic family and supports reliable signal integrity in high-speed digital systems.
How is the output enable controlled on the SN74ACT240PW?
The SN74ACT240PW uses active-low output enable pins (OE1 and OE2) to control the 3-state outputs. When an enable pin is high, its associated four outputs are placed in a high-impedance state, allowing multiple devices to share a common bus without signal contention.
What package does the SN74ACT240PW come in, and what are common alternatives?
The SN74ACT240PW is packaged in a 20-pin TSSOP (PDSO-G20), a compact surface-mount package suitable for space-constrained PCB designs. Pin-compatible alternatives include the SN74ACT240DW (SOIC-20) and SN74ACT240N (DIP-20) for through-hole applications, all offering equivalent electrical performance.
What supply voltage does the SN74ACT240PW require?
The SN74ACT240PW operates from a 5V supply voltage, consistent with the ACT (Advanced CMOS TTL-compatible) logic family. It features TTL-compatible input thresholds, making it easy to interface with both CMOS and TTL logic systems without additional level-shifting circuitry.
