SN74ACT11244DWR - Texas Instruments

The SN74ACT11244DWR from Texas Instruments is a highly versatile octal buffer/line driver designed to offer both 3-state and non-inverting outputs. This integrated circuit is part of the SN74ACT series, which is known for its robust performance and compatibility with TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) environments. The SN74ACT11244DWR is particularly suitable for driving bus lines or buffer memory address registers thanks to its high drive and wide operating voltage range.

The device comes in a wide-body SOIC package with a 24-pin configuration, allowing for easy integration into a variety of digital systems. Its surface-mount design (DWR suffix) is ideal for modern, compact printed circuit boards where space is at a premium. The SN74ACT11244DWR operates over a broad temperature range, making it a reliable choice for industrial applications where temperature extremes are common.

Key Features:

• Logic Type: Octal Buffer/Line Driver with 3-State Outputs
• Number of Channels: 8
• Voltage Range: 4.5V to 5.5V
• Output Current: High drive to meet demanding applications
• Package / Case: 24-SOIC (0.295", 7.50mm Width)
• Operating Temperature: -40°C to +85°C
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount

The SN74ACT11244DWR features a bi-directional bus transceiver functionality, which allows for flexible data transfer in either direction, making it a suitable component for bus interface or signal buffering tasks. Its 3-state outputs ensure that multiple units can be connected to a common bus without interference, as the output can be effectively disconnected from the circuit when not in use.

In summary, the SN74ACT11244DWR from Texas Instruments is a reliable and high-performance solution for a wide range of digital interfacing needs. Its robustness, combined with the ease of integration into various systems, makes it a go-to component for designers looking to build or upgrade their digital hardware.
