Texas Instruments SN74ACT1071

this device is designed to terminate bus lines in cmos systems. the integrated low-impedance diodes clamp the voltage of undershoots and overshoots caused by line reflections and ensure signal integrity. the device also contains a bus-hold function that consists of a cmos-buffer stage with a high-resistance feedback path between its output and its input. the sn74act1071 prevents bus lines from floating without using pullup or pulldown resistors. the high-impedance inputs of these internal buffers are connected to the input terminals of the device. the feedback path on each internal buffer stage keeps a bus line tied to the bus holder at the last valid logic state generated by an active driver before the bus switches to the high-impedance state. view all in datasheet
