General Description
These TRI-STATE bidirectional inverting and non-inverting
buffers utilize advanced silicon-gate CMOS technology and
are intended for two-way asynchronous communication be-
tween data buses They have high drive current outputs
which enable high speed operation when driving large bus
capacitances These circuits possess the low power dissi-
pation and high noise immunity associated with CMOS cir-
cuits but speeds comparable to low power Schottky TTL
circuits They can also drive 15 LS-TTL loads
The MM54HC243 MM74HC243 is a non-inverting buffer
and the MM54HC242 MM74HC242 is an inverting buffer
Each device has one active high enable (GBA) and one
active low enable (GAB) GBA enables the A outputs and
GAB enables the B outputs This device does not have
Schmitt trigger inputs
All inputs are protected from damage due to static dis-
charge by diodes to V
CC
and ground
