SN74LVTH16244AGRDR

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74LVTH16244AGRDR is a 3.3-V ABT 16-bit buffer and line driver with 3-state outputs, manufactured by Texas Instruments. It utilizes state-of-the-art Advanced BiCMOS Technology (ABT) for low static-power dissipation. The device supports mixed-mode signal operation, allowing 5-V input and output voltages with a 3.3-V VCC supply. It features active bus-hold circuitry on data inputs to eliminate the need for external pullup or pulldown resistors. Designed for hot-insertion applications, it includes Ioff and power-up 3-state support to prevent damaging current backflow during power-down or power-up phases.
