This document describes the features and characteristics of the 74HC/HCT244 octal buffer/line driver.
This document is a product specification datasheet for the 74HC/HCT244 integrated circuit, manufactured by Philips Semiconductors. The device is described as a high-speed Si-gate CMOS component that functions as an octal non-inverting buffer/line driver with 3-state outputs.
The datasheet provides technical details including typical symbol parameters such as propagation delay and input capacitance, along with ordering information references. It includes pin descriptions, logic symbols, functional diagrams, and detailed AC characteristics tables for both HC and HCT variants under various temperature conditions.
| Output capability | bus driver |
|---|---|
| IC category | MSI |
| Input capacitance | 3.5 pF |
A HIGH on these inputs causes the outputs to assume a high impedance OFF-state.
