Product details
Overview
74LVC2G241DP,125 from Nexperia is a dual non-inverting 3-state buffer/line driver in TSSOP8 (SOT505-2) package, operating from 1.65 V to 5.5 V supply. It features independent active-low (1OE) and active-high (2OE) enable controls, ±24 mA output drive at 3.0 V, Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity, and 5 V-tolerant I/O for mixed-voltage interfacing in industrial control and data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC2G241DP,125 datasheet, 74LVC2G241DP,125 pinout, 74LVC2G241DP,125 application, or 74LVC2G241DP,125 equivalent, this device serves as a voltage-level translating buffer with IOFF power-down protection, high-speed propagation (as low as 2.1 ns at 5 V), and robust ESD tolerance (HBM >2000 V), making it suitable for space-constrained, mixed-supply PCB interconnects.
Technical Context
The 74LVC2G241DP,125 implements two independent CMOS buffer channels, each with separate 3-state enable logic: 1OE is active LOW, 2OE is active HIGH-enabling asymmetric control in bus arbitration or multiplexed signal routing. Its Schmitt-trigger inputs accept slow-rising signals and tolerate input voltages up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC, supporting direct interface with both 3.3 V and 5 V logic families.
IOFF circuitry ensures zero backflow current during partial power-down, meeting JEDEC JESD8-7/5/B/36 compliance across 1.65–5.5 V operation. The device is characterized from –40 °C to +125 °C and exhibits typical propagation delays of 2.1 ns (VCC = 4.5–5.5 V) and disable times under 3.3 ns, enabling use in high-speed digital isolation and signal conditioning paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - supports single-rail operation across LVC logic families and mixed-voltage system interfacing. |
| Output Drive Strength | ±24 mA at VCC = 3.0 V - sufficient to drive 50 Ω transmission lines or multiple CMOS inputs without external buffering. |
| Propagation Delay | 2.1 ns typical (VCC = 4.5–5.5 V) - enables sub-500 MHz signal routing in compact digital subsystems. |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | 0 V to 5.5 V on all inputs - allows direct connection to 5 V microcontrollers or legacy peripherals without level shifters. |
| IOFF Leakage Current | ±2 μA max at VCC = 0 V - prevents damaging back-current when one supply rail is powered down in hot-swap or partial-power architectures. |
| ESD Robustness | HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V - reduces need for external transient protection in board-level ESD-prone environments. |
| Operating Temperature | –40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive modules, industrial PLC I/O, and outdoor telecom equipment. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP8 package (SOT505-2): plastic thin shrink small outline, 8 leads, 3 mm body width, 0.5 mm lead length, 0.65 mm pitch. Pin 1 index located at lower-left corner below marking "V241".
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1OE | Active-LOW enable input for buffer 1 - drives 1Y to high-impedance when HIGH. |
| 2 | VCC | Main supply rail - powers both buffers and internal logic; decoupling capacitor required adjacent to pin. |
| 3 | 1A | Data input for buffer 1 - non-inverting; accepts 0–5.5 V regardless of VCC value. |
| 4 | 2OE | Active-HIGH enable input for buffer 2 - drives 2Y to high-impedance when LOW. |
| 5 | 2Y | Output for buffer 2 - 3-state, ±24 mA capable, Schmitt-trigger referenced to local VCC. |
| 6 | 1Y | Output for buffer 1 - electrically isolated from 2Y; supports independent bus loading. |
| 7 | GND | Digital ground reference - must be low-inductance connection to minimize switching noise coupling. |
| 8 | 2A | Data input for buffer 2 - non-inverting; fully 5 V tolerant with no clamping diode dependency. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Independent 3-state control | Asymmetric enables (1OE active LOW, 2OE active HIGH) allow flexible bus arbitration and dynamic channel gating. |
| Schmitt-trigger inputs | Input hysteresis >0.3 V at 3.3 V - rejects noise on slow edges from mechanical switches, sensors, or long traces. |
| IOFF partial power-down | Prevents destructive back-current flow when VCC = 0 V - critical for hot-plug and multi-rail power sequencing. |
| 5 V tolerant I/O | Inputs and outputs withstand 5.5 V regardless of VCC (1.65–5.5 V) - eliminates discrete level translators in mixed-voltage designs. |
| Ultra-thin TSSOP8 package | 3 mm × 4.4 mm footprint with 0.65 mm pitch - fits high-density layouts while maintaining hand-solderability and rework access. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual 3-state buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC2G241DBVR | TSSOP8 package identical; same electrical specs but TI's version lacks IOFF specification and has higher max ICC (10 μA vs 4 μA). | Not rated for partial power-down operation - unsuitable where VCC may be cycled independently of I/O rails. | Select only if IOFF is not required and TI's supply chain offers better lead time or pricing. |
| 74LVC2G241DC,125 | VSSOP8 (SOT765-1) package: 2.3 mm width, 0.5 mm pitch - smaller footprint but reduced thermal mass and solder joint reliability vs TSSOP8. | Better suited for ultra-compact portable devices; less ideal for industrial environments requiring thermal cycling endurance. | Choose for space-critical consumer electronics; avoid in high-reliability or thermally demanding applications. |

FAQ
Can the 74LVC2G241DP,125 operate with VCC = 1.8 V while interfacing with 5 V inputs?
Yes. All inputs are 5 V tolerant up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC value, including at 1.8 V. This allows direct connection to 5 V microcontrollers or sensors without external level shifters, provided output loads are compatible with 1.8 V logic thresholds.
What is the maximum capacitive load the 74LVC2G241DP,125 can drive at 3.3 V while maintaining 2.5 ns propagation delay?
At VCC = 3.3 V, the device maintains ≤2.5 ns tPD driving up to 30 pF (per Table 10 test condition). For loads exceeding 30 pF, propagation delay increases linearly - e.g., 50 pF adds ~0.8 ns typical delay due to increased RC time constant.
Does the 74LVC2G241DP,125 require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its enable pins?
No. Enable pins 1OE and 2OE have no internal weak pull resistors. External biasing is required only if floating states must be avoided - e.g., tie 1OE to GND via 10 kΩ for default-enabled operation, or 2OE to VCC for default-disabled behavior.
How does the IOFF feature behave when VCC is ramped down to 0 V during system power-off?
IOFF activates automatically when VCC drops below ~0.8 V, disabling both outputs and limiting back-current to ±2 μA maximum. This prevents reverse current flow from live 5 V buses into the powered-down IC, protecting upstream drivers and avoiding latch-up risk.
