SN74LVTH241DBR datasheet by Texas Instruments

SN74LVTH241DBR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum operating frequency of the SN74LVTH241DBR?
  The maximum operating frequency of the SN74LVTH241DBR is 100 MHz, but it can vary depending on the load capacitance and the output current.
• How do I ensure signal integrity when using the SN74LVTH241DBR in a high-speed application?
  To ensure signal integrity, use a low-impedance PCB design, keep the signal traces short, and use termination resistors to match the impedance of the transmission line. Additionally, use a low-jitter clock source and ensure that the power supply is clean and stable.
• Can I use the SN74LVTH241DBR in a 3.3V system?
  Yes, the SN74LVTH241DBR is compatible with 3.3V systems, but it can also operate at 2.5V or 1.8V with reduced performance. However, the input voltage should not exceed the maximum rating of 4.6V.
• How do I handle the heat dissipation of the SN74LVTH241DBR?
  The SN74LVTH241DBR has a thermal pad on the bottom of the package, which should be connected to a thermal plane on the PCB to dissipate heat. Additionally, ensure good airflow around the device and avoid blocking the airflow with other components.
• Can I use the SN74LVTH241DBR in a radiation-hardened application?
  No, the SN74LVTH241DBR is not a radiation-hardened device and should not be used in applications that require radiation tolerance. Texas Instruments offers other devices that are specifically designed for radiation-hardened applications.
