texas instruments SN54LS245 SN74LS245 OCTAL BUS TRANSCEIVERS WITH 3-STATE OUTPUTS handbook
The document describes the SN54LS245 and SN74LS245 octal bus transceivers with 3-state outputs, designed for asynchronous two-way communication between data buses. These devices allow data transmission from an A bus to a B bus or vice versa based on the logic level at the DIR input, while the OE input can disable the device to isolate the buses.
