Product details
Overview
SN74HC365PWTE4 from Texas Instruments is a hex noninverting buffer/line driver with dual 3-state outputs, designed for bus interfacing and memory address driving in industrial and embedded systems. It operates from 2 V to 6 V, delivers ±6 mA output drive at 5 V, exhibits typical propagation delay of 10 ns, and draws ≤80 µA supply current - enabling low-power, high-density logic buffering in space-constrained PCB layouts.
For engineers reviewing the SN74HC365PWTE4 datasheet, SN74HC365PWTE4 pinout, SN74HC365PWTE4 application, or SN74HC365PWTE4 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning for key specs, TSSOP-16 package details, functional mode clarity, and two validated alternative parts for system-level sourcing flexibility.
Technical Context
The SN74HC365PWTE4 implements six independent CMOS buffer channels, each with true (noninverting) output logic and dual-gated 3-state control via OE1 and OE2 inputs. Its output-enable architecture allows channel grouping: both OE pins must be low for data pass-through; either high forces all Y outputs into high-impedance state.
This device uses standard HC-series silicon with rail-to-rail input thresholds, supports LSTTL load compatibility (up to 15 loads), and maintains stable timing across its full 2–6 V supply range - making it suitable for mixed-voltage interface translation between legacy TTL and modern low-voltage logic domains.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2 V to 6 V - enables direct interface with 3.3 V and 5 V systems without level shifters. |
| Output Drive Current | ±6 mA at VCC = 5 V - sufficient to drive 15 LSTTL loads or terminate short PCB traces without external buffers. |
| Propagation Delay | 10 ns typical (VCC = 4.5 V, CL = 50 pF) - supports reliable operation up to ~50 MHz clock/data rates in buffered paths. |
| Quiescent Supply Current | 80 µA max - reduces static power in always-on subsystems such as I/O expanders or configuration buses. |
| Input Leakage Current | 1 µA max - ensures minimal loading on upstream drivers or high-impedance signal sources like microcontroller GPIOs. |
| 3-State Enable/Disable Time | 21 ns enable / 19 ns disable (VCC = 6 V) - allows fast bus arbitration and dynamic channel switching in multiplexed data paths. |
| Power Dissipation Capacitance | 35 pF per buffer - used to calculate dynamic power consumption in high-frequency toggle applications. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-16 package (5.00 mm × 4.40 mm, 1.2 mm max height), lead-free with NiPdAu/Sn finish, moisture sensitivity level 1 (260 °C peak reflow).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 (A1–A6) | Buffer Input | Noninverting data inputs; accept 2–6 V logic levels with hysteresis-free thresholds. |
| 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 (Y1–Y6) | Buffer Output | True (noninverting) 3-state outputs; high-Z when OE1 or OE2 is high. |
| 13 (OE1) | Output Enable 1 | Active-low enable controlling Y1–Y3; tied low to activate first three buffers. |
| 14 (GND) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all internal logic and output current; requires local 0.1 µF bypass. |
| 15 (VCC) | Supply Voltage | Positive supply rail (2–6 V); must be decoupled within 5 mm of pin using 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor. |
| 16 (OE2) | Output Enable 2 | Active-low enable controlling Y4–Y6; independent of OE1 for split-bus control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide Supply Range | 2–6 V operation eliminates need for dedicated voltage regulators in multi-rail systems. |
| High-Current 3-State Outputs | ±6 mA drive capability supports direct connection to unterminated bus lines or memory address latches. |
| Dual Independent Output Enables | OE1 and OE2 allow partitioning of six buffers into two groups (Y1–Y3 and Y4–Y6) for selective bus isolation. |
| Low Power Consumption | 80 µA max ICC enables use in battery-backed or energy-sensitive applications without compromising speed. |
| Fast Switching Performance | 10 ns typical tpd at 4.5 V ensures timing margin in 25 MHz+ digital control loops and address decoding paths. |
Applications
| Memory Address Buffering | Industrial Bus Interface |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Driving 16-bit address lines from an MCU to multiple parallel EEPROM or SRAM devices on a shared bus.

Use Scenario: Interfacing a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO bank to a 5 V industrial PLC backplane with legacy TTL signaling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-tolerant buffer translating logic levels bidirectionally without external biasing networks. Use Value: Achieves robust noise immunity and fanout >10 at 5 V while drawing <100 µA quiescent current. |
| Configurable I/O Expansion | Test Equipment Signal Conditioning |
|
Use Scenario: Adding six programmable output lines to an FPGA-based test fixture where some lines must be tri-stated during calibration sequences. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Programmable output driver with dual OE control enabling dynamic reconfiguration of signal routing paths. Use Value: Reduces FPGA pin count usage by 6 and avoids custom logic synthesis for tristate management. |
Use Scenario: Conditioning slow-rising clock signals from a function generator before feeding into high-speed ADC sampling clocks. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Edge-shaping buffer sharpening rise/fall times and providing clean, low-jitter output transitions. Use Value: Improves clock edge monotonicity and reduces jitter accumulation in multi-stage timing chains. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar hex buffer with 3-state output applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HCT365PWRE4 | CMOS input compatible with TTL voltage levels (VIH = 2 V min), slightly higher ICC (160 µA max). | Better suited for direct connection to legacy 5 V TTL outputs without level shifting. | Select when interfacing with older 5 V logic families where input threshold compatibility is critical. |
| SN74LVC365APWRE4 | Lower VCC range (1.65–5.5 V), higher drive (±24 mA), faster tpd (5.5 ns typ), but not 5 V tolerant on inputs. | Optimized for 3.3 V or 2.5 V systems requiring higher speed and drive strength. | Choose for modern low-voltage designs where 5 V input tolerance is not required and performance headroom is needed. |
Compared with SN74HC365PWTE4, SN74HCT365PWRE4 offers guaranteed TTL-input compatibility at the cost of higher static power, while SN74LVC365APWRE4 delivers superior speed and drive in sub-5 V domains but sacrifices 5 V input tolerance - guiding selection based on voltage domain alignment and interface legacy requirements.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for SN74HC365PWTE4?
The SN74HC365PWTE4 has a specified operating free-air temperature range of –40 °C to +85 °C, consistent with commercial-grade TI logic devices. This rating applies to the PW (TSSOP) package variant and is validated under recommended operating conditions including VCC = 2–6 V and proper PCB thermal layout.
Does SN74HC365PWTE4 support 5 V tolerant inputs?
Yes, SN74HC365PWTE4 supports 5 V tolerant inputs across its full 2–6 V supply range. Input voltage limits extend from 0 V to VCC, and VIH/VIL thresholds scale with VCC - allowing safe operation with 5 V signals even when powered from 3.3 V, provided VCC ≥ 2 V.
How are the output enable pins OE1 and OE2 used in SN74HC365PWTE4?
In SN74HC365PWTE4, OE1 controls Y1–Y3 and OE2 controls Y4–Y6. Both must be low for corresponding outputs to pass A-inputs to Y-outputs; if either is high, its associated group enters high-impedance state. This enables independent bus segment control without external logic.
Can SN74HC365PWTE4 drive a 50 Ω transmission line directly?
No, SN74HC365PWTE4 is not designed for direct 50 Ω line driving. Its ±6 mA output drive at 5 V yields ~833 Ω effective source impedance - suitable for unterminated buses or capacitive loads ≤50 pF, but requires external series termination or a dedicated line driver for controlled-impedance PCB traces.
Is SN74HC365PWTE4 RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, SN74HC365PWTE4 is RoHS compliant and features a lead-free terminal finish (NiPdAu over Sn). The device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 and is qualified for peak reflow temperatures up to 260 °C, as confirmed in TI's official packaging documentation.
