The SN74LVTH244APWR is an advanced high-speed CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) octal bus buffer and line driver from the trusted brand, Texas Instruments. It is designed specifically for low-voltage (3.3-V) VCC operation, but with the capability to provide a TTL interface to a 5-V system environment. This product is part of the 'LVT' and 'LVTH' series of the logic family.
Featuring eight non-inverting buffers with 3-state outputs, the SN74LVTH244APWR is ideal for driving bus lines or buffering memory address registers. The device can be used as two 4-bit buffers or one 8-bit buffer. It provides true outputs and symmetrical active-low output-enable (OE) inputs. The device ensures that when OE is low, the device passes non-inverted data from the A inputs to the Y outputs. If OE is high, the outputs are in the high-impedance state.
One of the key features of this device is its 'bus-hold' data inputs which eliminate the need for external pull-up resistors to hold unused inputs. This feature significantly reduces system power consumption. Moreover, the SN74LVTH244APWR operates at a wide temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, making it suitable for a variety of environments.
This Texas Instruments device comes in a TSSOP (Thin Shrink Small-Outline Package) with 20 pins. It is RoHS compliant and compatible with the IEEE Standard 1149.1-1990 boundary-scan test. The SN74LVTH244APWR is also characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
With its exceptional performance, versatility, and power efficiency, the SN74LVTH244APWR is a reliable choice for your digital logic requirements. Whether you're designing computer servers, networking equipment, or other high-speed digital systems, this device from Texas Instruments offers a high-quality solution.
