The SN74HCT541DW is an octal Buffer/Line Driver with 3-state outputs. It is designed to have the performance of the popular HC240 series devices and to offer a pin-out with inputs and outputs. This arrangement greatly facilitates printed circuit board layout. The 3-state control gate is a 2-input NOR. If either output-enable (OE1\ or OE2\\) input is high, all eight outputs are in the high-impedance state. The HCT541 device provides true data at the outputs.
Inputs are TTL-voltage compatible
Data flow-through pin-out
High-current 3-state outputs interface directly with system bus or can drive up to 15 LSTTL loads
