The MC74VHCT245A is an advanced high speed CMOS octal bus transceiver fabricated with silicon gate CMOS technology. It achieves high speed operation similar to equivalent Bipolar Schottky TTL while maintaining CMOS low power dissipation.

Features
• High Speed: tPD = 4.9 ns (Typ) at VCC = 5.0 V
• Low Power Dissipation: ICC = 4 μA (Max) at TA = 25°C
• TTL−Compatible Inputs: VIL = 0.8 V; VIH = 2.0 V
• Power Down Protection Provided on Inputs and Outputs
• Balanced Propagation Delays
• Designed for 4.5 V to 5.5 V Operating Range
• Low Noise: VOLP = 1.6 V (Max)
• Pin and Function Compatible with Other Standard Logic Families
• Latchup Performance Exceeds 300 mA
• ESD Performance:
    Human Body Model > 2000 V;
    Machine Model > 200 V
• Chip Complexity: 304 FETs or 76 Equivalent Gates
• Pb−Free Packages are Available*

APPLICATION NOTES
• Do not force a signal on an I/O pin when it is an active output, damage may occur.
• All floating (high impedance) input or I/O pins must be fixed by means of pullup or pulldown resistors or bus terminator ICs.
