CD74FCT244ATM96

Overview

The CD74FCT244ATM96 is an octal buffer and line driver manufactured by Texas Instruments. It belongs to the FCT logic series and features non-inverting outputs with three-state capability. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V. It utilizes a 20-pin Small Outline Integrated Circuit (SOIC) package designed for surface-mount technology applications.

Feature Summary

• Provides eight non-inverting signal paths for bus interfacing
• Features three-state outputs to isolate the bus when disabled
• Supports high-speed data transfer via low propagation delay characteristics

Applications

• Memory mapping controllers
• Clock drivers
• Bus-oriented architectures

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '96' against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm tape-and-reel packaging specifications. Ensure the component meets required RoHS compliance standards for the target application environment before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring wide voltage tolerance within the standard 5V logic family. The SOIC-20 package facilitates automated assembly processes. Consider the drive current capabilities relative to the load capacitance requirements of the connected circuitry.

Part Context

This part is part of the broader CD74FCT244 family of octal buffers. It shares functional similarities with other FCT series devices but offers specific packaging and trailing suffix variations. It serves as a critical interface element in digital systems requiring reliable signal buffering.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include the CD74FCT244AT and CD74FCT244N variants, provided the package type matches the design constraints. Verify pin compatibility and electrical parameters before substitution.
