74LCX244MTC

The 74LCX244MTC is a CMOS 8-bit buffer/line driver with non-inverting 3-state outputs from On Semiconductor. It is designed for low-voltage logic applications, operating from a supply voltage range of 2V to 3.6V. The device integrates two elements of four bits each, providing a total of eight channels. It features a typical propagation delay of 6.5ns and can source or sink up to 24mA of output current. The quiescent current is only 10µA, making it suitable for power-sensitive designs.

The buffer/line driver uses 3-state outputs, enabling connection to shared buses. The device is available in a 20-TSSOP surface mount package with gold contact plating. It operates over an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. The 74LCX244MTC is part of the 74LCX series of low-voltage CMOS logic ICs.

Typical applications include memory address driving, bus interface buffering, and general-purpose logic level translation. The 3-state outputs allow multiple devices to share a common data bus without conflict. The device is lead-free and RoHS compliant, with a moisture sensitivity level of 1 (unlimited floor life).
