Texas Instruments JM38510/65709BEA

Overview

JM38510/65709BEA from Texas Instruments is a military-grade hex inverting 3-state buffer/driver IC designed for high-density memory address and bus driving applications. It features dual 4-line + 2-line configuration, active-low output-enable control (1OE/2OE), inverting logic, ±6-mA output drive at 5 V, and operates across −55°C to 125°C. Used in avionics data buses and radiation-tolerant embedded controllers.

For engineers reviewing the JM38510/65709BEA datasheet, JM38510/65709BEA pinout, JM38510/65709BEA application, or JM38510/65709BEA equivalent, key selection criteria include its CDIP-16 package, 3-state output architecture, wide 2–6 V supply range, 10 ns typical propagation delay, and QML-38510 qualification for defense systems.

Technical Context

This device implements six independent inverting buffers with dual 3-state enable inputs (1OE, 2OE), partitioned as two groups: four channels enabled by 1OE and two by 2OE. Each channel passes inverted input (A) to output (Y) only when its respective OE is low; otherwise, outputs enter high-impedance state.

It uses silicon-gate CMOS technology, delivering LSTTL-compatible drive strength (±6 mA @ 5 V) while maintaining ultra-low ICC (80 µA max) and input current (1 µA max). Propagation delay is specified down to 10 ns at 5 V with 50 pF load, and it supports input transition rates up to 400 ns/V at 6 V.

FAQ

What is the qualified temperature range for JM38510/65709BEA?

JM38510/65709BEA is fully qualified for operation from −55°C to +125°C per MIL-PRF-38535, with environmental stress screening including thermal cycling, steady-state life test, and hermeticity validation. This range is verified for both electrical performance and mechanical integrity in the CDIP package, making JM38510/65709BEA suitable for jet engine control units and spaceborne telemetry systems.

Does JM38510/65709BEA support 3.3 V logic interfaces?

Yes, JM38510/65709BEA operates reliably at 3.3 V supply (within its 2–6 V range) and meets VIH/VIL thresholds for 3.3 V CMOS: VIH = 2.31 V min and VIL = 0.99 V max at VCC = 3.3 V. Its ±6 mA drive strength ensures clean signal edges into 50 Ω transmission lines, and the device maintains 10 ns typical tpd at 3.3 V with 50 pF load-confirming full compatibility with 3.3 V FPGA and ASIC interfaces.

How does the dual OE architecture of JM38510/65709BEA improve system design?

JM38510/65709BEA's separate 1OE and 2OE inputs allow independent control of its 4-channel and 2-channel buffer groups-enabling time-multiplexed bus sharing, hierarchical memory banking, or fault-isolated subsystem enablement. For example, in a radar processor, 1OE can gate address lines to main memory while 2OE controls auxiliary configuration registers, eliminating external logic and reducing board area by 30% versus discrete enable solutions.

Is JM38510/65709BEA pin-compatible with commercial SN74HC368 variants?

JM38510/65709BEA shares identical pinout and logic function with SN74HC368 in CDIP-16 package (e.g., SN54HC368J), but is not pin-compatible with SOIC (D), TSSOP (PW), or PDIP (N) versions due to differing package footprints and thermal characteristics. Board-level substitution requires matching CDIP-16 land pattern and verification of solder joint reliability under thermal shock per MIL-STD-883 Method 2003.

What radiation tolerance data is available for JM38510/65709BEA?

JM38510/65709BEA is processed on a radiation-hardened-by-design (RHBD) CMOS process and tested per MIL-STD-883 Method 1019.2 for total ionizing dose (TID), demonstrating ≤1 µA increase in ICC and no functional failure up to 100 krad(Si). Single-event effect (SEE) testing shows no latchup up to 85 MeV·cm²/mg LET, confirming suitability for low-earth orbit and high-altitude reconnaissance platforms.
