The SN74LVT16244BGRDR is a high-speed, low-voltage 16-bit buffer/driver with 3-state outputs. It is designed for use as an interface between a 3.3V bus and a 5V bus, allowing communication between devices operating at different voltage levels. Here are the key features of this IC component:
1. Wide operating voltage range: The SN74LVT16244BGRDR can operate at voltages between 2.7V and 3.6V, making it compatible with a range of systems.
2. 3-state outputs: This component has 16 outputs, each with a 3-state configuration. This means the outputs can be in an active high, active low, or high impedance state, providing flexibility in the connection of multiple devices.
3. High-speed operation: With a propagation delay of only 4.2ns, this buffer/driver enables fast data transmission, making it suitable for high-speed applications.
4. Output voltage translation: The SN74LVT16244BGRDR acts as a voltage level translator, allowing seamless communication between devices operating at different voltage levels. It can convert signals from 3.3V logic to 5V logic and vice versa.
5. ESD protection: The integrated circuit is designed to withstand ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) events up to 2000V, providing robust protection against potentially damaging voltage spikes
