SN74LVC16244AGQLR

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74LVC16244A is a 16-bit buffer/driver designed for 1.65-V to 3.6-V VCC operation, featuring true outputs and symmetrical active-low output-enable inputs. It supports mixed-mode signal operation with 5.5-V tolerant inputs at any valid VCC. The device provides four independent 4-bit buffers or two 8-bit buffers. It includes Ioff support for partial-power-down mode and live insertion. ESD protection exceeds 2000 V via the human-body model and 1000 V via the charged-device model.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package type (e.g., DGG, DGV, DL, GQL) matches the design requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead finish details in the orderable addendum. Ensure operating temperature range aligns with system specifications. Check moisture sensitivity level ratings before soldering.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component for high-density bus-oriented receivers and transmitters requiring 16-bit buffering. Use when down-voltage translation from 5-V sources to lower logic levels is necessary. Consider for applications needing isolated bus sections via multiple enable pins. Verify drive current limits against load conditions to prevent ringing.
