SN74LVTH244ADBR

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74LVTH244ADBR is an octal buffer and line driver from Texas Instruments, utilizing LVTH advanced low-voltage technology. It features eight non-inverting channels organized into two groups of four, each with independent output enable (OE) control. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2.7V to 3.6V and supports 5V-tolerant inputs for mixed-voltage system compatibility. It provides three-state outputs and is housed in a 20-pin SOIC package.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Supports 5V-tolerant input levels while operating at lower supply voltages, enabling seamless interface between 3.3V logic systems and legacy 5V components without external level shifting circuitry.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Parallel data bus buffering in industrial control systems
• Clock distribution and signal driving in communication equipment
• Level translation interfaces in mixed-voltage embedded designs

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'DBR' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm the SOIC-20 package type and tape-and-reel packaging configuration. Ensure the component meets RoHS compliance requirements for your target market. Cross-reference the ordering information with official Texas Instruments documentation to validate availability and lead times before finalizing procurement plans.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring high-speed buffering with 5V input tolerance in a low-voltage environment. It is suitable for applications needing independent channel control via dual OE pins. Consider alternative packages like PW or DWR if different form factors are required for PCB layout constraints.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context
