Working Principles

SN74BCT541AN operates by receiving digital input signals on its eight input pins (A1 to A4, B1 to B4). These inputs are buffered and amplified internally before being transmitted to the corresponding output pins (I/O1 to I/O8). The OE# pin controls the output enable/disable function. When OE# is low, the outputs are enabled and reflect the input signals. Conversely, when OE# is high, the outputs are disabled and enter a high-impedance state.
