SN74LVC244APWTG4

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74LVC244APWTG4 is an octal buffer and line driver from the Texas Instruments LVC logic family, designed for 1.65V to 3.6V operation. It features eight non-inverting channels organized as two 4-bit buffers with independent output enable inputs. The device provides three-state outputs and supports asynchronous communication between data buses. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum propagation delay of 6.7ns at 2.7V, output drive currents of ±24mA, and a supply voltage range spanning 1.65V to 3.6V. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and is housed in a TSSOP-20 package.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TG4' against the official datasheet to confirm RoHS compliance and green material status. Ensure the TSSOP-20 package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements. Confirm that the operating temperature range meets your environmental specifications before finalizing procurement.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when low voltage operation down to 1.65V is required alongside high-speed buffering capabilities. The LVC series offers superior performance compared to standard CMOS while maintaining compatibility with 5V tolerant inputs. Consider the TSSOP-20 package for space-constrained surface-mount designs requiring eight buffered channels.
