General description The 74HC541; 74HCT541 is an octal non-inverting buffer/line driver with 3-state outputs.
The device features two output enables (OE1 and OE2).
A HIGH on OEn causes the outputs to assume a high-impedance OFF-state.
Inputs include clamp diodes that enable the use of current limiting resistors to interface inputs to voltages in excess of VCC.
