The IC component 74HC244PW,112 is a non-inverting octal buffer and line driver. It is part of the 74HC family of integrated circuits, which are high-speed CMOS logic devices. Here is an overview and key features of the 74HC244PW,112:
1. Overview:
- The 74HC244PW,112 is an octal buffer and line driver that works as a voltage-level shifter or a signal buffer. It can be used to amplify or buffer digital signals.
- It has 8 independent buffers with common enable input and outputs that can drive up to 10 LS-TTL loads.
- The IC operates with a wide supply voltage range from 2V to 6V and has 3-state outputs.
- It is housed in a TSSOP package (PW suffix) and is RoHS compliant.
2. Key Features:
- Non-Inverting: The IC directly passes the input signal to the output without any inversion.
- Octal Buffer: It has 8 independent buffer units that can handle 8 input signals and provide 8 output signals.
- Line Driver: The IC can drive external lines with high output currents, making it suitable for applications involving long transmission lines.
- 3-State Outputs: The IC can enter a high-impedance state (tri-state) where the outputs are effectively disconnected from the rest of the circuit, allowing multiple devices to share a bus
