SN74LVTH16244AGQLR

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74LVTH16244AGQLR is a 3.3-V ABT 16-bit buffer and line driver with 3-state outputs manufactured by Texas Instruments. It utilizes Advanced BiCMOS Technology (ABT) for low static-power dissipation and supports mixed-mode signal operation, allowing 5-V input and output voltages with a 3.3-V VCC supply. The device operates down to 2.7 V for unregulated battery applications. It features active bus-hold circuitry on data inputs to eliminate external pullup/pulldown resistors. The component provides true outputs and symmetrical active-low output-enable (OE) inputs.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Supports mixed-mode signal operation with 5-V tolerant inputs and outputs while operating at 3.3 V
• Active bus-hold circuitry maintains valid logic states on unused or undriven inputs without external components
• Provides Ioff and power-up 3-state functionality to support hot-insertion applications safely

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Mixed-mode signal buffering between 5-V and 3.3-V system environments
• Hot-insertion applications requiring controlled power-up and power-down states
• Unregulated battery-powered systems operating down to 2.7 V

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific GQL package designation and lead finish compatibility during procurement. Confirm that the ordering suffix matches the required tape and reel specifications for automated assembly processes. Ensure the component status aligns with current design lifecycle requirements before finalizing orders.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits that require 16-bit buffering with 3-state control in a compact BGA footprint. It is suitable for applications needing TTL interface capabilities within a 3.3-V environment. Consider the thermal characteristics of the Microstar Junior package for PCB layout planning.
