SN74LVC244ARGYR

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74LVC244ARGYR is an octal buffer and line driver manufactured by Texas Instruments, belonging to the LVC (Low-Voltage CMOS) logic family. It features eight non-inverting channels with three-state outputs, designed for operation within a supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 3.6 V. The device supports asynchronous communication between data buses and accepts input voltages up to 5.5 V, enabling mixed-mode signal operations. It utilizes a 20-pin WSON package.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Supports mixed-mode signal operations allowing 5 V tolerant inputs while operating at lower supply voltages
• Includes IOFF functionality to prevent excessive current draw during live insertion or partial power-down events
• Provides high-impedance states via independent output enable controls for effective bus management

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Asynchronous communication between data buses in embedded systems
• Signal buffering and driving in industrial control applications
• Motor drive and control circuitry requiring level shifting

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ARGYR' against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm the exact package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with required operating temperatures and voltage levels before integration into final designs.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing low-voltage systems requiring robust signal buffering with 5 V tolerance. Consider the WSON package constraints for PCB layout and thermal management relative to other available packages like TSSOP or SOIC.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context
