The MC74HC244AFELG is an IC (integrated circuit) component that belongs to the 74HC family and is designed to be used as a buffer or line driver. It is a non-inverting 8-bit tri-state buffer, offering high-speed logic functions with the capability of controlling the flow of data between different types of logic systems.
Here are some key features and details about the MC74HC244AFELG:
1. 8-bit Tri-State Buffer: The IC consists of eight individual tri-state buffer gates, which can control the flow of data between two separate systems by enabling or disabling the output.
2. High-Speed Operation: The MC74HC244AFELG is designed to operate at high-speed logic, making it suitable for applications that require quick data transfer and processing.
3. Wide Operating Voltage Range: The IC component has a wide operating voltage range of 2.0V to 6.0V, enabling compatibility with various logic systems and power supplies.
4. Schmitt-Trigger Inputs: It features Schmitt-trigger inputs, which help in providing hysteresis for improved noise immunity and cleaner signal switching.
5. Tri-State Output: The outputs of the buffers can be dynamically enabled or disabled using the Output Enable (OE) input pin, allowing multiple devices to share a common bus without interfering with one another
