Toshiba Non-Inverting 3 State Octal Bus Buffer 20-Pin SOIC 2-6 V 74HC244D

The Toshiba 74HC244D is a high speed CMOS octal bus buffer designed for applications requiring non-inverting outputs and three-state control. Packaged in a 20-pin SOIC offering, it operates efficiently over a wide supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V. The device features two active-low output enable pins that provide precise control over the outputs, allowing them to drive bus lines or Buffers in digital systems reliably.

Fabricated using silicon gate C2MOS technology, the 74HC244D achieves propagation delays comparable to equivalent LSTTL devices while maintaining the low power dissipation advantage inherent to CMOS circuits. This buffer includes internal protection circuits designed to safeguard inputs from static discharge and transient voltages, enhancing device durability in industrial and consumer electronics.

The device delivers balanced propagation delays with typical rise and fall times approximately equal, thus supporting consistent switching performance across all outputs.

Typical applications include industrial automation, digital signal processing, and computing systems requiring robust and energy-efficient logic buffering. Its operating temperature range from -40°C to 85°C ensures functionality in a wide variety of harsh environments, including industrial and commercial settings. The small footprint SOIC package supports surface mount technology, facilitating compact PCB designs.

High speed operation with typical 10 ns propagation delay at 6 V supply. Low power consumption with a maximum supply current of 70 µA at 25°C. Non-inverting 3-state outputs controlled by two active-low enables. Static discharge and transient excess voltage protection on all inputs.

Wide supply voltage range: 2 V to 6 V for flexible design implementation. Balanced propagation delays (tPLH approximately equal to tPHL) improve signal accuracy. Operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C ensures reliability.

SOIC 20-pin package supports compact surface mounting.
