SN74LV244BMDWREP

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74LV244BMDWREP is an enhanced product octal buffer and line driver from Texas Instruments, designed for 2 V to 5.5 V VCC operation. It features balanced CMOS 3-state outputs and standard CMOS inputs. The device is configured into two banks of four drivers, each controlled by its own output enable pin. It supports mixed-mode voltage operation on all ports and includes Ioff circuitry for partial-power-down applications. The component operates within an ambient temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Supports defense, aerospace, and medical applications with a controlled baseline and extended product life cycle
• Includes Ioff circuitry that disables outputs to prevent damaging current backflow during partial-power-down modes
• Features latch-up performance exceeding 250 mA per JESD 17 standards
• Provides electrostatic discharge protection meeting ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC JS-001 (HBM ±2000 V) and JS-002 (CDM ±1000 V)

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Enable or disable digital signals in bus systems
• Eliminate slow or noisy input signals through buffering
• Hold signal states during controller reset sequences
• Debounce mechanical switches for reliable logic transitions

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'MDWREP' against the manufacturer's official orderable addendum to confirm package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure the procurement channel sources genuine Texas Instruments Enhanced Product (EP) components to guarantee compliance with the controlled baseline, single assembly site, and full traceability requirements mandated for defense and aerospace use cases.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when operating environments require extended temperature ranges down to -55°C and robust latch-up immunity. The SN74LV244B-EP series is appropriate for designs needing partial-power-down capabilities via Ioff functionality. Verify that the system voltage remains within the 2 V to 5.5 V range and that the application benefits from the controlled manufacturing baseline required for high-reliability sectors.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LV244B-EP family of octal buffers and line drivers. It is classified as an Enhanced Product (EP), indicating it meets stricter manufacturing controls compared to standard commercial variants. The device utilizes CMOS technology to provide low-noise performance and is housed in a 20-pin SOIC package variant, specifically tailored for surface-mount assembly in compact electronic designs.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Consult the manufacturer's orderable addendum for direct pin-compatible replacements within the SN74LV244B-EP family. Standard SN74LV244 variants may lack the EP-controlled baseline and extended temperature specifications required for this specific model.
