Product details
Overview
JM38510/32402B2A from Texas Instruments is a military-grade octal buffer and line driver with 3-state outputs, designed for memory address bus driving and high-noise-margin bus interfacing in harsh environments. It features dual 4-bit channels, active-low output-enable (1G/2G), 15 ns maximum propagation delay at 5 V, ±24 mA output drive capability, and operates across –55°C to +125°C.
For engineers reviewing the JM38510/32402B2A datasheet, JM38510/32402B2A pinout, JM38510/32402B2A application, or JM38510/32402B2A equivalent, key selection criteria include its MIL-PRF-38535 qualification, CDIP-20 hermetic package, PNP input structure reducing DC loading, 400-mV noise margin, and compatibility with 3.3-V/5-V mixed logic systems.
Technical Context
The JM38510/32402B2A implements two independent 4-bit non-inverting buffer channels (1A→1Y and 2A→2Y), each controlled by dedicated active-low enable inputs (1G and 2G). Its PNP input stage minimizes bus loading, while built-in input hysteresis ensures robust noise immunity in electrically noisy military platforms.
It operates strictly at 5 V (4.5–5.5 V) with guaranteed performance over full military temperature range. All parameters are 100% tested per MIL-PRF-38535 requirements, including switching characteristics (tPLH/tPHL ≤15 ns), output drive (IOL = 24 mA min), and input hysteresis (0.2–0.4 V).
Key Specifications

| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - Ensures stable operation in regulated 5-V military power rails with tolerance for supply ripple. |
| Propagation Delay | ≤15 ns - Enables reliable timing in high-speed memory address buffering up to ~67 MHz clock-equivalent systems. |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA - Sufficient to drive terminated lines down to 133 Ω and support fan-out to ≥20 LS-TTL loads. |
| Input Hysteresis | 0.2–0.4 V - Provides 400-mV noise margin, critical for signal integrity in avionics and ground vehicle EMI environments. |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 19 | 1G / 2G | Active-low output-enable controls for Channel 1 and Channel 2 - Must be pulled high via external resistor during power-up to ensure high-impedance default state. |
| 2, 4, 6, 8, 11, 13, 15, 17 | 1A1–1A4 / 2A1–2A4 | Non-inverting data inputs - PNP structure reduces DC loading on source buses; tolerant of 2-V minimum input voltage. |
| 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 14, 16, 18 | 2Y4–2Y1 / 1Y4–1Y1 | 3-state non-inverting outputs - Drive bus lines directly; high-impedance when corresponding G is high; capable of sinking 24 mA. |
| 10 | GND | Signal and power ground reference - Requires low-inductance connection to minimize ground bounce in high-speed switching. |
| 20 | VCC | +5 V supply - Must be decoupled locally with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor to suppress switching transients. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MIL-PRF-38535 Qualified | Fully tested per Class B requirements - Guarantees reliability, traceability, and screening for defense-critical applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal 3-state buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN54LS244J | Same logic function, CDIP-20 package, but commercial-grade screening (not MIL-PRF-38535 qualified); lower temperature range (–55°C to +125°C not guaranteed). | Not approved for flight-critical or nuclear-hardened deployments; suitable for ground-test equipment or non-safety-critical subsystems. | Select only if MIL-spec qualification is unnecessary and cost sensitivity outweighs long-term reliability requirements. |
| SNJ54LS240FK | LCCC-20 ceramic package instead of CDIP-20; identical electrical specs and military temp range, but different mounting and thermal profile (RθJA = 45.5°C/W vs. 50.6°C/W). | Better suited for high-vibration environments due to leadless construction; requires reflow-compatible PCB layout and inspection. | Choose when board-level shock resistance or higher packaging density is prioritized over through-hole assembly compatibility. |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range certified for JM38510/32402B2A?
JM38510/32402B2A is fully specified and tested over –55°C to +125°C per MIL-PRF-38535 Class B requirements. This range is guaranteed for all electrical parameters including propagation delay, output drive, and input hysteresis - unlike commercial variants where only limited parameters are characterized at extremes.
Does JM38510/32402B2A support 3.3-V input logic levels?
Yes, JM38510/32402B2A accepts input voltages as low as 2 V, making it compatible with 3.3-V CMOS and LVTTL sources. Its PNP input structure ensures proper logic recognition without external level shifting, enabling direct interfacing in mixed-voltage military subsystems.
How is the high-impedance state ensured during power-up for JM38510/32402B2A?
To guarantee high-impedance outputs at power-up, both 1G and 2G pins must be tied to VCC via pullup resistors. The minimum resistor value is determined by the driver's current-sinking capability - typically 4.7 kΩ suffices to hold G high until system firmware asserts control.
What package type does JM38510/32402B2A use, and is it hermetically sealed?
JM38510/32402B2A uses a Ceramic Dual-In-Line Package (CDIP-20), 24.20 mm × 6.92 mm, and is hermetically sealed per MIL-STD-883. This construction prevents moisture ingress and ensures long-term reliability in high-humidity or salt-fog environments typical of naval and airborne platforms.
Can JM38510/32402B2A drive terminated transmission lines, and down to what impedance?
Yes, JM38510/32402B2A is characterized to drive terminated lines down to 133 Ω, supporting robust signal integrity on controlled-impedance PCB traces and backplanes. This capability is validated across the full military temperature range and supports reliable operation in radar and comms systems with strict eye-diagram requirements.
