description/ordering information

The SN74BCT2245 octal transceiver and line/

MOS driver is designed for asynchronous

communication between data buses.

The device allows data transmission from the A bus to the B bus or from the B bus to the A bus, depending on

the logic level at the direction-control (DIR) input. The output-enable (OE) input can disable the devices so that

both buses are effectively isolated.

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.

The B-port outputs, which are designed to source or sink up to 12 mA, include 33-Ω series resistors to reduce

overshoot and undershoot.
