SN74LV244APWG4

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74LV244APWG4 is an octal buffer and line driver manufactured by Texas Instruments, belonging to the LV/LV-A/LVX/H logic series. It features eight non-inverting channels with three-state outputs housed in a 20-pin TSSOP package. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 5.5 V and supports surface-mount installation. It includes dual output enable inputs for independent control of two four-bit groups. The component provides high drive capability with 16 mA output current at both high and low states, ensuring reliable signal transmission across various digital interfaces.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the G4 suffix indicates RoHS compliance and green material status per Texas Instruments standards. Confirm the TSSOP-20 package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the 2 V to 5.5 V operating range aligns with your system power rails. Check for any specific handling precautions related to moisture sensitivity level classification during assembly.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when requiring eight-channel buffering with wide voltage tolerance. It is suitable for designs needing high drive current on standard logic buses. Consider the TSSOP package for space-constrained surface-mount layouts. Verify that the three-state functionality meets your bus arbitration needs compared to fixed-output alternatives.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LV244A family of octal buffers. The G4 suffix denotes environmental compliance. It serves as a robust interface solution for connecting microprocessors to peripheral devices or memory modules. The design focuses on density and performance improvements over previous generations while maintaining compatibility with standard logic families.
