The SN74ABT244ADW is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the 74ABT family. It is a high-performance octal buffer and line driver designed to be compatible with TTL and CMOS logic levels. This IC is commonly used in various digital applications, where it effectively isolates inputs from outputs, provides voltage level translation, and enhances system performance.
One of the key features of the SN74ABT244ADW is its ability to operate with a wide range of input and output voltages. It supports input voltages ranging from 4.5 volts to 5.5 volts, which makes it compatible with both TTL and CMOS logic families. The IC also features an output voltage range of 0 volts to VCC, allowing it to accommodate a variety of output devices.
This octal buffer and line driver IC consists of eight non-inverting buffers. Each buffer has a 3-state output that can be controlled by the input enable (OE) pin. When the OE input is low, all outputs are active and drive their respective outputs according to the input logic levels. Conversely, when the OE input is high, all outputs are in a high-impedance state, effectively isolating the inputs and outputs.
The SN74ABT244ADW is designed to offer high-speed operation while maintaining low power consumption. It has a maximum propagation delay of 7.8 nanoseconds, allowing for efficient signal transmission in high-frequency applications
