SN74HCT245PWR 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 select input. High = A to B, Low = B to A. TTL-compatible input (VIH ≥ 2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V). |
| 2 | A1 | bidirectional | Channel 1 port A. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. ±6 mA drive at 5 V. |
| 3 | A2 | bidirectional | Channel 2 port A. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 4 | A3 | bidirectional | Channel 3 port A. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 5 | A4 | bidirectional | Channel 4 port A. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 6 | A5 | bidirectional | Channel 5 port A. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 7 | A6 | bidirectional | Channel 6 port A. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 8 | A7 | bidirectional | Channel 7 port A. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 9 | A8 | bidirectional | Channel 8 port A. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 10 | GND | power_in | Ground reference (0 V). Center-pin placement helps minimize high-speed switching noise. |
| 11 | B8 | bidirectional | Channel 8 port B. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 12 | B7 | bidirectional | Channel 7 port B. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 13 | B6 | bidirectional | Channel 6 port B. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 14 | B5 | bidirectional | Channel 5 port B. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 15 | B4 | bidirectional | Channel 4 port B. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 16 | B3 | bidirectional | Channel 3 port B. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 17 | B2 | bidirectional | Channel 2 port B. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 18 | B1 | bidirectional | Channel 1 port B. Bidirectional bus I/O; direction set by DIR, tri-state when OE is high. |
| 19 | OE | input | Output enable, active low. High = all ports in high-impedance (isolation) mode; Low = all ports active. TTL-compatible input. |
| 20 | VCC | power_in | Positive supply voltage. Recommended 4.5 V to 5.5 V (nominal 5 V). Absolute max 7 V. |

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: 742 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.
