STMicroelectronics M74HC368 Handbook

The M74HC368 is a high speed CMOS HEX BUS BUFFER 3-STATE OUTPUTS fabricated with silicon gate C2MOS technology. This device contains six buffers, four buffers are controlled by an enable input (G1) and the other two buffers are controlled by the other enable input (G2); the outputs of each buffer group are enabled when G1 and/or G2 inputs are held low, and when held high, these outputs are disabled in a high-impedance state. All inputs are equipped with protection circuits against static discharge and transient excess voltage.
