SN74AHC244N

The SN74AHC244N is an octal buffer and driver from Texas Instruments, designed to enhance the performance and density of 3-state memory-address drivers, clock drivers, and bus-oriented receivers and transmitters. This device features 8 channels with non-inverting logic and 3-state outputs.

Key electrical specifications include an operating voltage range of 2V to 5.5V, an IOL of 8mA, and an IOH of -8mA. The device operates across a wide temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. It utilizes Standard CMOS input types and offers balanced outputs, over-voltage tolerant inputs, and very high speed performance with propagation delays typically between 5ns and 10ns.

The SN74AHC244N is available in a 20-PDIP package and supports through-hole mounting. Its latch-up performance exceeds 250mA per JESD 17, ensuring robust operation in demanding environments. This component is part of the AHC technology family, known for its high-speed performance and low power consumption.

This buffer/driver is ideal for applications requiring efficient signal buffering and driving in systems with 3-state bus architectures. Its design facilitates improved system density and performance in digital logic circuits.
