SN74LVC2T45: Doubling up the outputs

Errol Leon6

Part Number: SN74LVC2T45

Hello team,

With 74HC logic family you can double up the outputs (connect them together) too get stronger drive capability. Is this also true for the 74LVC family?

Thanks!

This is true for all CMOS families.

Just be sure to only parallel channels that also have the same inputs and within the same chip -- timing differences can cause bus contention that could damage the device.
