The N74F244DB,112 is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the NXP Semiconductors family of buffer/drivers. It is a hex buffer/line driver with 3-state outputs, typically used for applications requiring the amplification or buffering of signal lines. Here is an overview of the key features of this IC component:
1. Hex Buffer/Line Driver: The N74F244DB,112 offers six independent buffer/drivers in a single package. Each buffer/driver can handle input signals and amplify or buffer them for output.
2. 3-State Outputs: The IC features 3-state outputs, allowing the output pins to be put in a high-impedance state when not actively driving a signal. This feature enables multiple devices to connect to the same signal line without conflicts.
3. Wide Operating Voltage: This IC supports a wide operating voltage range, typically between 2.0V and 5.5V. This voltage flexibility allows compatibility with various logic families and makes it suitable for integration in different systems.
4. High-Speed Performance: The N74F244DB,112 offers fast propagation delay and transition times, allowing it to handle high-speed signals without introducing significant delays or signal distortion.
5. Schmitt-Trigger Inputs: The buffer/driver inputs are equipped with Schmitt-trigger circuitry, which ensures robust and noise-tolerant operation by providing hysteresis to the input signal
