The SN74HCT244QPWRQ1 is an octal buffer and line driver IC component manufactured by Texas Instruments. It is a robust device designed to withstand harsh automotive environments. The IC provides high-performance buffering and line driving capabilities, making it suitable for various automotive applications.
Here are some key features of the SN74HCT244QPWRQ1:
1. Input/Output Compatibility: The IC operates at a voltage range of 2 V to 6 V, providing compatibility with a wide range of digital systems. It is designed to work with both CMOS and TTL input levels, making it versatile for various applications.
2. Octal Buffer/Line Driver: The SN74HCT244QPWRQ1 consists of eight independent buffer/line driver channels. These channels have a high-current output capability, allowing them to drive highly capacitive loads.
3. Non-Inverting Outputs: Each buffer/line driver channel has a non-inverting output configuration. This means that the input signal is directly transferred to the output without inversion.
4. Output Enable Control: The IC incorporates an active-low output enable (OE) input pin. When this pin is set to a logic low, all the buffer/line driver outputs are active. If the OE pin is set to a logic high, the outputs are put in a high-impedance state, effectively isolating them from the connected circuitry
