3 Description

This quadruple bus buffer gate is designed for 1.65V

to 3.6V VCC operation.

The SN74LVC125A device features independent line

drivers with 3-state outputs. Each output is disabled

when the associated output-enable (OE) input is high.

To ensure the high-impedance state during power up

or power down, OE should be tied to VCC through

a pullup resistor; the minimum value of the resistor

is determined by the current-sinking capability of the

driver.

Inputs can be driven from either 3.3V or 5V devices.

This feature allows the use of this device as a

translator in a mixed 3.3V/5V system environment.
