Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify current production status as this part may be obsolete or discontinued by Fairchild Semiconductor. Confirm package compatibility and pinout alignment with existing designs. Check for RoHS compliance documentation if required for specific regulatory environments. Ensure sourcing from authorized distributors to guarantee authenticity and traceability of the semiconductor components.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16-bit wide buffer with independent 3-STATE control is required. The ACTQ series offers TTL-compatible inputs suitable for interfacing with standard logic families. Consider the SOIC-48 package constraints and power supply requirements during circuit design. Evaluate performance needs against active alternatives if long-term availability is critical.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This component is part of the broader 74ACT16244 family of 16-bit bus buffers. While similar to the 74AC16244, the ACT variant ensures TTL input compatibility. The 'Q' suffix typically denotes automotive or qualified reliability standards within the Fairchild portfolio, distinguishing it from standard commercial grade parts in the same logical category.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

The 74ACT16244 is a direct functional equivalent within the same manufacturer's lineup. Other manufacturers offer compatible 16-bit buffers such as the SN74ACT16244 from Texas Instruments. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility and electrical specifications before substituting with generic equivalents.
