SNx4HC541 Octal Buffers and Line Drivers With 3-State Outputs
1 Features
3 Description
•
•
These octal buffers and line drivers feature the
performance of the SNx4HC541 devices and a pinout
with inputs and outputs on opposite sides of the
package. This arrangement greatly facilitates printed
circuit board layout.
•
•
•
•
•
Wide Operating Voltage Range of 2 V to 6 V
High-Current 3-State Outputs Drive Bus Lines
Directly or Up to 15 LSTTL Loads
Low Power Consumption, 80-µA Maximum ICC
Typical tpd = 10 ns
±6-mA Output Drive at 5 V
Low Input Current of 1 µA Maximum
Data Flow-Through Pinout (All Inputs on Opposite
Side From Outputs)
2 Applications
•
•
•
•
•
LEDs
Servers
PCs and Notebooks
Wearable Health and Wellness Devices
Electronic Points of Sale
The 3-state outputs are controlled by a two-input NOR
gate. If either output-enable (OE1 or OE2) input is
high, all eight outputs are in the high-impedance state.
The SNx4HC541 devices provide true data at the
outputs.

Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress
ratings only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under
Recommended Operating Conditions. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device
reliability.
The input and output voltage ratings may be exceeded if the input and output current ratings are observed.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The SN74HC541 device has 8 inputs and outputs where data from the A inputs go to the Y outputs. The output
enables of the device control whether the information from the A inputs go to the Y outputs. These enable pins
cause the device to go into high Z if either OE1 or OE2 are high. The OEs should be tied to VCC through a
pull up resistor to ensure the high impedance state during power up or power down; the minimum value of the
resistor is determined by the current sinking capability of the driver.

9 Application and Implementation
Note
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification,
and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for
determining suitability of components for their purposes, as well as validating and testing their design
implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
SN74HC541 is a wide range CMOS device that can be used over large voltage ranges. The device can be used
anywhere from 2 to 6 Volts. The device can drive up to 6 mA of current at 5 Volts. This makes it perfect for
driving bus lines directly or up to 15 LSTTL Loads. It can be used to drive anything from micro controllers and
system logic devices to LEDs.

9.2.1 Design Requirements
This device uses CMOS technology and has a wide voltage range. Take care to avoid pulling too much current
from the outputs as to not exceed 6 mA. Also, take care to not go over VCC voltage to avoid damage to the
device.
9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
1. Recommended Input Conditions
• Rise time and fall time specs: See (Δt/ΔV) in the Section 6.3 table.
• Specified high and low levels: See (VIH and VIL) in the Section 6.3 table.
• Inputs should not be pulled above VCC.
2. Recommended Output Conditions
• Load currents should not exceed 6 mA for the part
• Outputs should not be pulled above VCC.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
The power supply can be any voltage between the MIN and MAX supply voltage rating located in the Section 6.3
table.
Each VCC pin should have a good bypass capacitor to prevent power disturbance. For devices with a single
supply, 0.1-μF is recommended; if there are multiple VCC pins, then 0.01-μF or 0.022-μF is recommended for
each power pin. It is acceptable to parallel multiple bypass caps to reject different frequencies of noise. A 0.1-μF
and a 1-μF are commonly used in parallel. The bypass capacitor should be installed as close to the power pin as
possible for best results.
11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
When using multiple bit logic devices inputs should never float.
In many cases, functions or parts of functions of digital logic devices are unused, for example, when only two
inputs of a triple-input AND gate are used or only 3 of the 4 buffer gates are used. Such input pins should not
be left unconnected because the undefined voltages at the outside connections result in undefined operational
states. The Section 6.3 section specifies the rules that must be observed under all circumstances. All unused
inputs of digital logic devices must be connected to a high or low bias to prevent them from floating. The logic
level that should be applied to any particular unused input depends on the function of the device. Generally they
will be tied to GND or VCC whichever makes more sense or is more convenient. It is generally acceptable to
float outputs, unless the part is a transceiver. If the transceiver has an output enable pin, it disables the output
section of the part when asserted. This does not disable the input section of the I/Os, so they cannot float when
disabled.

12.5 Electrostatic Discharge Caution
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled
with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may
be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published
specifications.
