SN74AHCT245PWR from Texas Instruments, in a TSSOP-20. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | DIR | input | Direction control input. DIR=L transfers B->A; DIR=H transfers A->B (when OE is low). |
| 2 | A1 | bidirectional | Channel 1 A-side bus I/O. Direction set by DIR; high-Z when OE is high. |
| 3 | A2 | bidirectional | Channel 2 A-side bus I/O. |
| 4 | A3 | bidirectional | Channel 3 A-side bus I/O. |
| 5 | A4 | bidirectional | Channel 4 A-side bus I/O. |
| 6 | A5 | bidirectional | Channel 5 A-side bus I/O. |
| 7 | A6 | bidirectional | Channel 6 A-side bus I/O. |
| 8 | A7 | bidirectional | Channel 7 A-side bus I/O. |
| 9 | A8 | bidirectional | Channel 8 A-side bus I/O. |
| 10 | GND | power_in | Ground reference (0 V). |
| 11 | B8 | bidirectional | Channel 8 B-side bus I/O. |
| 12 | B7 | bidirectional | Channel 7 B-side bus I/O. |
| 13 | B6 | bidirectional | Channel 6 B-side bus I/O. |
| 14 | B5 | bidirectional | Channel 5 B-side bus I/O. |
| 15 | B4 | bidirectional | Channel 4 B-side bus I/O. |
| 16 | B3 | bidirectional | Channel 3 B-side bus I/O. |
| 17 | B2 | bidirectional | Channel 2 B-side bus I/O. |
| 18 | B1 | bidirectional | Channel 1 B-side bus I/O. |
| 19 | OE | input | Active-low output enable. When OE is high, both A and B buses are placed in the high-impedance (isolation) state. Should be tied to VCC through a pullup during power up/down. |
| 20 | VCC | power_in | Positive supply, 4.5 V to 5.5 V recommended (7 V absolute max). |

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 768 faces against 327 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
