74AHC244; 74AHCT244
Octal buffer/line driver; 3-state
Rev. 6 — 2 July 2020
Product data sheet
1. General description
The 74AHC244; 74AHCT244 is an 8-bit buffer/line driver with 3-state outputs. The device can be
used as two 4-bit buffers or one 8-bit buffer. The device features two output enables (1OE and
2OE), each controlling four of the 3-state outputs. A HIGH on nOE causes the outputs to assume
a high-impedance OFF-state. Inputs are overvoltage tolerant. This feature allows the use of these
devices as translators in mixed voltage environments.
