74LCX240
Low Voltage Octal Buffer/Line Driver with
5V Tolerant Inputs and Outputs
General Description
The LCX240 is an inverting octal buffer and line driver
designed to be employed as a memory address driver,
clock driver and bus oriented transmitter or receiver. The
device is designed for low voltage (2.5V or 3.3V) V
CC
appli-
cations with capability of interfacing to a 5V signal environ-
ment.
The LCX240 is fabricated with an advanced CMOS tech-
nology to achieve high speed operation while maintaining
CMOS low power dissipation.

through a pull-up resistor: the minimum value or the
resistor is determined by the current-sourcing capability of the driver.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
(Note 3)
Recommended Operating Conditions
(Note 5)
Note 3: The Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. The device should not be operated
at these limits. The parametric values defined in the Electrical Characteristics tables are not guaranteed at the Absolute Maximum Ratings. The "Recom-
mended Operating Conditions" table will define the conditions for actual device operation.
Note 4: I
O
Absolute Maximum Rating must be observed.
Note 5: Unused inputs must be held HIGH or LOW. They may not float.

Note 6: Outputs disabled or 3-STATE only.
AC Electrical Characteristics
Note 7: Skew is defined as the absolute value of the difference between the actual propagation delay for any two separate outputs of the same device. The
specification applies to any outputs switching in the same direction, either HIGH-to-LOW (t
OSHL
) or LOW-to-HIGH (t
OSLH
).
