MC74HC541A
Octal 3-State Noninverting
Buffer/Line Driver/Line
Receiver
High–Performance Silicon–Gate CMOS
The MC74HC541A is identical in pinout to the LS541. The device
inputs are compatible with Standard CMOS outputs. External pull–up
resistors make them compatible with LSTTL outputs.
The HC541A is an octal noninverting buffer/line driver/line
receiver designed to be used with 3–state memory address drivers,
clock drivers, and other bus–oriented systems. This device features
inputs and outputs on opposite sides of the package and two ANDed
active–low output enables.
The HC541A is similar in function to the HC540A, which has
inverting outputs.
Output Drive Capability: 15 LSTTL Loads
Outputs Directly Interface to CMOS, NMOS and TTL
Operating Voltage Range: 2 to 6V
Low Input Current: 1 A
High Noise Immunity Characteristic of CMOS Devices
In Compliance With the JEDEC Standard No. 7A Requirements
Chip Complexity: 134 FETs or 33.5 Equivalent Gates

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
INPUTS
A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A8 (PINS 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
Data input pins. Data on these pins appear in non–inverted
form on the corresponding Y outputs, when the outputs are
enabled.
CONTROLS
OE1, OE2 (PINS 1, 19)
Output enables (active–low). When a low voltage is
applied to both of these pins, the outputs are enabled and the
device functions as an non–inverting buffer. When a high
voltage i s applied to either input, the outputs assume the high
impedance state.
OUTPUTS
Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, Y5, Y6, Y7, Y8 (PINS 18, 17, 16, 15, 14,
13, 12, 11)
Device outputs. Depending upon the state of the output
enable pins, these outputs are either non–inverting outputs
or high–impedance outputs.
