SN74LVT244BNS

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74LVT244BNS is an octal buffer and line driver from the Texas Instruments SN74LVT244B series, designed for low-voltage 3.3-V VCC operation. It features eight non-inverting channels with three-state outputs and TTL-compatible CMOS inputs. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 3.6 V. Key electrical parameters include a propagation delay of 2.3 ns at 3.3 V, high-level output current of -32 mA, and low-level output current of 64 mA. It is housed in a 20-pin SOIC package.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'NS' against the manufacturer's official ordering information to confirm the exact package type and tape/reel specifications. Ensure the component meets the required RoHS compliance standards for your assembly process. Cross-reference the datasheet revision to confirm pinout and electrical characteristics match your design requirements before finalizing procurement.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring 3.3-V logic level translation or buffering with high drive capability. The SN74LVT244BNS is suitable for applications needing fast switching speeds and low power consumption. Consider the 20-pin SOIC package constraints regarding PCB space and thermal management during the selection phase.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LVT244B family of octal buffers and line drivers. The family is characterized by its ability to operate at low voltages while maintaining performance comparable to older logic families. The SN74LVT244BNS variant specifically denotes the surface-mount SOIC package configuration within this broader product line.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Check for direct equivalents such as the SN74LVT244BPW or SN74LVT244BPWR, which share identical logical functions but differ in packaging (TSSOP vs. SOIC) or reel specifications. Verify that any substitute maintains the same 3.3-V operating voltage and 3-state output capabilities.
