SN74ALVCH244NSRE4

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74ALVCH244NSRE4 is an octal buffer and line driver manufactured by Texas Instruments, belonging to the ALVCH logic series. It features eight non-inverting inputs and outputs with three-state control capabilities. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 3.6 V and supports through-hole mounting in a 20-pin SSOP package. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum propagation delay of 3.1 ns at 3.3 V, low static current consumption of 10 uA, and output drive currents of ±24 mA. It functions reliably across an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including the suffix RE4 to ensure correct packaging configuration. Confirm that the SSOP-20 package variant matches your PCB footprint requirements. Check RoHS compliance status as indicated in official documentation before finalizing procurement specifications.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring low-voltage operation between 1.65 V and 3.6 V. It is suitable for applications needing moderate speed performance with a propagation delay around 3.1 ns. Consider the through-hole SSOP-20 package if manual assembly or specific mechanical constraints are required over surface-mount alternatives.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This component is part of the SN74ALVCH244 family of octal buffers and line drivers. It shares functional similarities with other members like the SN74AHC244 but is optimized for lower voltage ranges. The ALVCH series is designed for applications requiring both low power consumption and high-speed performance in portable and battery-operated devices.
