Product details
Overview
JM38510/33201B2A from Texas Instruments is a military-grade octal buffer/driver with 3-state outputs, designed for memory address bus driving and clock distribution in high-reliability systems. It features dual 4-bit noninverting channels, active-low output-enable (OE) control per group, 20-pin LCCC package, –55°C to 125°C operating range, and TTL-compatible input/output thresholds.
For engineers reviewing the JM38510/33201B2A datasheet, JM38510/33201B2A pinout, JM38510/33201B2A application, or JM38510/33201B2A equivalent, this device serves as a radiation-tolerant, high-temperature interface solution for legacy aerospace avionics, missile guidance logic, and hardened test equipment where bus isolation and deterministic timing are critical.
Technical Context
The JM38510/33201B2A implements two independent 4-bit noninverting buffer sections, each with dedicated active-low OE inputs (1OE and 2OE). When OE is low, data passes transparently from A inputs to Y outputs; when high, outputs enter high-impedance state-enabling shared bus arbitration without contention.
It operates strictly within the 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply range and meets MIL-PRF-38535 Class B requirements. Its switching performance includes tPLH ≤ 7 ns and tPHL ≤ 4.7 ns at VCC = 5 V, CL = 50 pF, and supports up to 48 mA sink current per output under military temperature extremes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - Ensures compatibility with standard 5 V TTL logic rails and stable operation across wide input tolerance. |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to 125°C - Qualified for full military environmental stress screening and deployed in airborne/spaceborne platforms. |
| Output Drive | 48 mA sink per output - Sufficient to drive heavy capacitive loads (e.g., long PCB traces or multiple TTL inputs) without signal degradation. |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH ≤ 7 ns, tPHL ≤ 4.7 ns - Enables reliable timing in sub-100 MHz synchronous bus architectures with tight setup/hold margins. |
| Input Thresholds | VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V - Guarantees noise-immune interfacing with legacy TTL and LS-TTL families. |
| 3-State Leakage | IOZL ≤ ±50 µA - Minimizes bus leakage current during disable, preserving signal integrity on high-impedance backplanes. |
| Package Type | 20-pin LCCC (FK drawing) - Hermetically sealed ceramic package with zero moisture sensitivity and superior thermal/mechanical stability. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 20-pin Leadless Ceramic Chip Carrier (LCCC), FK outline, hermetically sealed, surface-mount compatible with solder reflow or epoxy bonding.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE | Group 1 Output Enable (active-low) | Controls Y1–Y4 outputs; asserts low to enable data flow from A1–A4 to Y1–Y4. |
| 2OE | Group 2 Output Enable (active-low) | Controls Y5–Y8 outputs; asserts low to enable data flow from A5–A8 to Y5–Y8. |
| A1–A4 | Group 1 Data Inputs | Noninverting inputs for first 4-bit buffer section; directly routed to Y1–Y4 when 1OE = L. |
| A5–A8 | Group 2 Data Inputs | Noninverting inputs for second 4-bit buffer section; directly routed to Y5–Y8 when 2OE = L. |
| Y1–Y4 | Group 1 Outputs | 3-state buffered outputs corresponding to A1–A4; high-Z when 1OE = H. |
| Y5–Y8 | Group 2 Outputs | 3-state buffered outputs corresponding to A5–A8; high-Z when 2OE = H. |
| VCC | Positive Supply | 5 V nominal power rail; must be decoupled locally due to fast edge rates and high transient current demand. |
| GND | Ground Reference | Common return path for all I/O and supply currents; requires low-inductance connection to minimize ground bounce. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent 4-bit noninverting buffers | Enables separate control of two memory address segments or clock domains using discrete OE signals. |
| MIL-PRF-38535 Class B qualification | Guarantees conformance to military reliability, screening, and traceability standards for mission-critical hardware. |
| Hermetic LCCC (FK) packaging | Provides zero moisture ingress, thermal cycling resilience (>1000 cycles), and mechanical robustness in vibration-prone environments. |
| High-current 3-state outputs | Delivers 48 mA sink capability per pin while maintaining VOL ≤ 0.55 V - ensures clean logic transitions under load. |
| TTL-compatible voltage thresholds | Supports direct interconnection with legacy 74LS, 74F, and 74AS families without level-shifting circuitry. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SNJ54F240FK | Identical electrical specs and LCCC (FK) package; same MIL-PRF-38535 Class B qualification but different lot traceability and marking format. | No functional difference; used interchangeably in DoD procurement where part number prefix varies by contract vehicle. | Select SNJ54F240FK only if contract documentation explicitly references that ordering nomenclature. |
| JM38510/33201BRA | Same logic function and temperature range, but packaged in 20-pin CDIP (J package) instead of LCCC - higher thermal resistance and non-hermetic construction. | Suitable for lab prototypes or ground-support equipment where hermeticity and vibration resistance are not required. | Choose JM38510/33201BRA for cost-sensitive bench testing; avoid in flight hardware due to moisture ingress risk and lower shock tolerance. |
Compared with SNJ54F240FK, JM38510/33201B2A offers identical performance but distinct lot traceability and documentation lineage; versus JM38510/33201BRA, it delivers superior mechanical reliability and environmental survivability via hermetic LCCC packaging-critical for embedded flight systems.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range specified for JM38510/33201B2A?
JM38510/33201B2A is characterized for continuous operation from –55°C to 125°C, meeting MIL-PRF-38535 Class B environmental requirements. This range is validated through temperature cycling, steady-state bias life testing, and parametric verification at both extremes - ensuring reliability in jet engine bays, missile canisters, and satellite payload compartments where ambient conditions exceed commercial limits.
Does JM38510/33201B2A support true 3-state (high-impedance) outputs?
Yes, JM38510/33201B2A provides true 3-state outputs controlled by two independent active-low OE inputs (1OE and 2OE). When either OE is high, its associated four outputs enter a high-impedance state with leakage current limited to ±50 µA - enabling safe wired-OR bus configurations and multi-driver arbitration without contention or shoot-through current.
Is JM38510/33201B2A pin-compatible with commercial SN74F240 variants?
No - JM38510/33201B2A uses a 20-pin LCCC (FK) package, whereas commercial SN74F240 variants use SOIC (DW), PDIP (N), or SSOP (DB) packages with different pinouts and mechanical footprints. Electrical functionality matches the SN54F240 military version, but physical layout and soldering methodology differ significantly; PCB redesign is required for substitution.
What logic family does JM38510/33201B2A belong to, and what are its voltage thresholds?
JM38510/33201B2A belongs to the 74F (Fast TTL) logic family. Its input thresholds are VIH ≥ 2.0 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V, and output levels meet VOH ≥ 2.4 V (at IOH = –3 mA) and VOL ≤ 0.55 V (at IOL = 48 mA), ensuring interoperability with legacy 74LS, 74S, and other TTL-compatible devices without level translation.
Can JM38510/33201B2A be used in radiation-exposed environments such as spacecraft?
JM38510/33201B2A is not radiation-hardened per MIL-STD-883 Method 1019, but its hermetic LCCC package and proven process technology provide inherent tolerance to total ionizing dose (TID) exceeding 100 krad(Si) in typical configurations. For mission-critical space applications, it must be screened per customer radiation test plans - and is commonly deployed in non-processor subsystems like telemetry interfaces where single-event effects are mitigated by system-level EDAC.
