DESCRIPTION:

Potato Semiconductor’s PO74G304A is designed for 
world top performance using submicron CMOS technol-
ogy to achieve 700MHz TTL output frequency with less 
than 100ps output  pin to pin skew.
PO74G304A is a CMOS 1 input to 4 outputs 
Buffered driver to achieve 700MHz output frequency. 
Typical applications are clock and signal distribution.
They are used for networking and communications 
applications.
Inputs can be driven from either 3.3V or 5V devices. 
This feature allows the use of these devices as translators 
in a mixed 3.3V/5V system environment.
