Product details
Overview
74ABT240PW,112 from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Philips) is an octal inverting 3-state buffer optimized for high-speed bus interface applications. It features dual output enables (1OE, 2OE), ±64mA/–32mA drive capability, 3.1ns typical propagation delay at 5V/50pF, and operates across –40°C to +85°C. Used in address/data bus driving where controlled signal inversion and tri-state isolation are required.
For engineers reviewing the 74ABT240PW,112 datasheet, 74ABT240PW,112 pinout, 74ABT240PW,112 application, or 74ABT240PW,112 equivalent, key selection criteria include output drive strength, 3-state enable timing (tPZH/tPHZ ≤ 4.8ns), input/output capacitance (CIN = 4pF, COUT = 7pF), power-up 3-state behavior, and latch-up immunity (>500mA per JEDEC 17).
Technical Context
The 74ABT240PW,112 implements two independent 4-bit inverting buffer sections, each controlled by a dedicated output enable (1OE, 2OE). Its BiCMOS architecture delivers low static current (ICCZ = 50µA at VCC = 5.5V) while sustaining high-speed switching with tPLH/tPHL = 3.1ns typical and <4.8ns max over temperature.
It supports live insertion/extraction and power-up 3-state operation, ensuring outputs remain high-impedance during power ramp-up. Input voltage thresholds (VIL = 0.8V, VIH = 2.0V) and robust ESD protection (2000V HBM, 200V MM) make it suitable for industrial backplane and board-level interconnect environments.

| 11, 13, 15, 17 | 2A0–2A3 | Inverting input group B - signals inverted and driven to Y0–Y3 when 2OE = L |
| 18, 16, 14, 12 | 1Y0–1Y3 | Inverted outputs for group A - high-impedance when 1OE = H |
| 9, 7, 5, 3 | 2Y0–2Y3 | Inverted outputs for group B - high-impedance when 2OE = H |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference - must be low-inductance connection to minimize ground bounce |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply - requires local 0.1µF ceramic decoupling adjacent to pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal inverting buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ABT240DBR | Same logic function, 20-pin SSOP (SOT163-1); tPLH/tPHL = 3.2ns typical; identical VCC/IO specs | SSOP footprint differs - requires PCB redesign; thermal resistance higher than TSSOP | Choose for legacy SSOP-based designs where TSSOP rework is impractical |
| 74LVT240PW,118 | Lower VCC range (2.7–3.6V); 3.3V-only operation; 3.0ns typical delay; 12mA/–12mA drive | Not 5V-compatible; insufficient drive for TTL loads; intended for LVT logic families only | Choose only in new 3.3V systems requiring lower power and no 5V interfacing |
Compared with SN74ABT240DBR and 74LVT240PW,118, the 74ABT240PW,112 uniquely balances 5V compatibility, high drive (+64mA), and TSSOP thermal performance - making it optimal for industrial bus interfaces where signal integrity and ruggedness are prioritized over ultra-low power.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current specification for 74ABT240PW,112?
The 74ABT240PW,112 supports –32mA source current (IOH) and +64mA sink current (IOL) per output under recommended operating conditions. These values are guaranteed across –40°C to +85°C at VCC = 4.5V to 5.5V. The device is rated for 128mA absolute maximum output current in low state, but sustained operation above 64mA requires thermal derating per the datasheet's junction temperature limits.
Does 74ABT240PW,112 support live insertion?
Yes, the 74ABT240PW,112 explicitly supports live insertion and extraction per its product specification. This capability is enabled by its BiCMOS process, latch-up immunity exceeding 500mA (JEDEC Std 17), and robust ESD protection (2000V HBM). When used with appropriate current-limiting circuitry and proper mechanical guides, the 74ABT240PW,112 can be safely inserted into or removed from a powered backplane without damaging the device or system.
What is the function of pins 1 and 19 on 74ABT240PW,112?
Pins 1 and 19 on the 74ABT240PW,112 are the active-low output enable terminals 1OE and 2OE. Each controls four of the eight 3-state outputs: 1OE enables/disables outputs 1Y0–1Y3, and 2OE controls 2Y0–2Y3. When held HIGH, the corresponding outputs enter high-impedance (Z) state; when LOW, they actively drive inverted versions of their respective inputs (1A0–1A3 or 2A0–2A3). Both enables must be LOW for full octal operation.
Is 74ABT240PW,112 compatible with 3.3V logic inputs?
The 74ABT240PW,112 accepts 3.3V logic inputs reliably: its VIH threshold is 2.0V minimum, and VIL is 0.8V maximum, so a 3.3V CMOS signal (VOH ≥ 3.0V, VOL ≤ 0.4V) meets both specifications. However, its outputs swing rail-to-rail (0V to VCC ≈ 5V), so interfacing with 3.3V receivers requires level translation or tolerance verification. The 74ABT240PW,112 itself must be powered at 4.5–5.5V and is not designed for 3.3V VCC operation.
What does "power-up 3-State" mean for 74ABT240PW,112?
"Power-up 3-State" means that all outputs of the 74ABT240PW,112 remain in high-impedance (Z) state from power-on until VCC rises above the valid operating threshold (~2.1V) and stabilizes. This prevents bus contention or unintended signal assertion during power ramp-up. The feature is intrinsic to the BiCMOS design and requires no external reset or enable sequencing - the 74ABT240PW,112 automatically enters functional mode only after VCC is fully established.
