resulting in low losses in high frequency applications. The STS01DTP06 offers a 30 V NPN

and PNP combination supporting a continuous collector current of 3 A and the minimum

gain of the two transistors is 100 at 1 A collector current. The transistor elements are fully

independent so that higher assembly flexibility is guaranteed. Concerning PDPs, this means

that the turn-ON and the turn-OFF resistors could be different.

Input buffer section

The 74VHCT541 is an advanced high-speed CMOS OCTAL BUS BUFFER (3-STATE)

fabricated with sub-micron silicon gate and double-layer metal wiring C2MOS technology,

available in TSSOP package [22.].

In order to enhance PC board layout, the 74VHCT541 offers a pin-out having inputs and

outputs on opposite sides of the package. The device is characterized by high speed and

low power dissipation. Power down protection is provided on all inputs and 0 to 7 V can be

accepted on inputs with no regard to the supply voltage. This device can be used to

interface 5 V to 3 V. All inputs and outputs are equipped with protection circuits against static

discharge, giving them 2KV ESD immunity and transient excess voltage.
