SN74HC244 (DIP20) Octal Buffers And Line Drivers With 3-State Outputs

SN74HC244 (DIP20) Octal Buffers And Line Drivers With 3-State Outputs

Description

These octal buffers and line drivers are designed specifically to improve both the performance and density of 3-state memory address drivers, clock drivers, and bus-oriented receivers and transmitters. The ’HC244 devices are organized as two 4-bit buffers/drivers with separate output-enable (OE)\ inputs. When OE\ is low, the device passes noninverted data from the A inputs to the Y outputs. When OE\ is high, the outputs are in the high-impedance state.

Features

• Wide Operating Voltage Range of 2 V to 6 V
• High-Current Outputs Drive Up To 15 LSTTL Loads
• 3-State Outputs Drive Bus Lines or Buffer Memory Address Registers
• Low Power Consumption, 80-µA Max I_CC
• Typical t_pd = 11 ns
• ±6-mA Output Drive at 5 V
• Low Input Current of 1 µA Max
