Product details
Overview
74ABT244D,623 from Nexperia is an octal 3-state buffer/line driver in SO20 package, configured as two independent 4-bit buffers with separate active-low output enables (1OE, 2OE). It operates from 4.5 V to 5.5 V, delivers ±32 mA/±64 mA drive capability, supports partial power-down via IOFF, and functions across –40 °C to +85 °C for industrial bus interface applications.
For engineers reviewing the 74ABT244D,623 datasheet, 74ABT244D,623 pinout, 74ABT244D,623 application, or 74ABT244D,623 equivalent, this device is selected for TTL-compatible bidirectional bus buffering where high-speed propagation (≤4.6 ns), robust ESD protection (HBM >2000 V), and live-insertion capability are required in legacy 5 V systems.
Technical Context
The 74ABT244D implements BiCMOS logic architecture to achieve high-speed switching (tPLH/tPHL ≤4.6 ns at VCC = 5.0 V) while maintaining TTL-level input compatibility and rail-to-rail output swing. Its dual 4-bit structure allows flexible partitioning of data paths under independent enable control.
IOFF circuitry actively disables outputs during power-down by clamping leakage to ±100 μA when VCC = 0 V, preventing backflow current. The device complies with JESD78 Class II latch-up immunity (>500 mA) and meets ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC JS-001 Class 2 HBM and JS-002 Class C3 CDM ESD standards.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures stable operation across industrial 5 V rail tolerances without regulation. |
| Output drive | +64 mA / –32 mA - supports direct driving of heavy capacitive loads or multiple TTL inputs. |
| Propagation delay | ≤4.6 ns (tPLH/tPHL) - enables reliable timing in high-speed 5 V bus systems up to ~200 MHz. |
| IOFF leakage | ±100 μA at VCC = 0 V - prevents damaging back-current during hot-swap or partial power-down sequences. |
| Operating temperature | –40 °C to +85 °C - certified for use in industrial control cabinets and outdoor embedded enclosures. |
| ESD rating | HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V - withstands handling and board-level transients without protection diodes. |
| Input compatibility | Direct TTL-level interface - eliminates level-shifting components in legacy 5 V designs. |
Pinout & Package
74ABT244D,623 uses the SO20 (SOT163-1) plastic small outline package: 20-pin, 7.5 mm body width, 1.27 mm lead pitch, gull-wing leads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 19 | 1OE, 2OE | Active-low output enables - each controls four corresponding Y outputs; HIGH forces high-impedance state. |
| 2, 4, 6, 8 | 1A0–1A3 | Group 1 input data lines - routed to outputs 1Y0–1Y3 when 1OE = LOW. |
| 11, 13, 15, 17 | 2A0–2A3 | Group 2 input data lines - routed to outputs 2Y0–2Y3 when 2OE = LOW. |
| 12, 14, 16, 18 | 1Y0–1Y3 | Group 1 buffered outputs - three-state, driven by 1A0–1A3 under 1OE control. |
| 3, 5, 7, 9 | 2Y0–2Y3 | Group 2 buffered outputs - three-state, driven by 2A0–2A2 under 2OE control. |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference - common return path for all I/O and supply currents. |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply - powers internal BiCMOS circuitry; must be decoupled locally. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| BiCMOS high-speed architecture | Combines bipolar speed and CMOS low static power - achieves sub-5 ns propagation with <1.5 mA typical ICC per enabled group. |
| Dual independent 4-bit enables | 1OE and 2OE allow selective isolation of two data lanes - simplifies bus arbitration and reduces contention risk. |
| Power-up 3-state | Outputs remain high-impedance until VCC stabilizes - prevents bus conflicts during system power sequencing. |
| Live insertion support | IOFF + latch-up immunity (>500 mA) enables safe hot-plug into powered backplanes - critical for modular industrial systems. |
| TTL-compatible input thresholds | VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max - interfaces directly with legacy 5 V TTL without pull-ups or translators. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal 3-state buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ABT244N | Same ABT logic family, DIP-20 package; higher thermal resistance (RθJA ≈ 70 °C/W vs. SO20's 55 °C/W); no IOFF circuitry. | Limited to fixed-mount, non-hot-swap applications due to missing IOFF and larger footprint. | Select only for through-hole prototyping or legacy DIP-based systems where thermal derating is acceptable. |
| 74LVC244APW | Lower-voltage 3.3 V operation (1.65–3.6 V); CMOS-only process; ±24 mA drive; no IOFF; -40 °C to +125 °C range. | Requires level translation for 5 V buses; unsuitable for direct TTL replacement but preferred for modern low-power mixed-voltage designs. | Choose when migrating to 3.3 V domains or when extended temperature range outweighs 5 V compatibility needs. |
Compared with SN74ABT244N and 74LVC244APW, the 74ABT244D,623 uniquely combines 5 V TTL compatibility, SO20 space efficiency, and IOFF-enabled hot-swap safety-making it irreplaceable in industrial 5 V backplane upgrades requiring zero-modification drop-in integration.

FAQ
Does 74ABT244D,623 support mixed-voltage operation between 3.3 V and 5 V systems?
No. The 74ABT244D,623 is specified only for 4.5 V to 5.5 V VCC operation and TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH ≥2.0 V, VIL ≤0.8 V). It cannot safely interface with 3.3 V logic without external level-shifting circuitry, as its inputs are not 5 V-tolerant in 3.3 V supply contexts and its outputs exceed 3.3 V rail limits.
What is the maximum capacitive load the 74ABT244D,623 can drive while maintaining specified propagation delay?
The datasheet specifies dynamic characteristics with CL = 50 pF (Table 9). At this load and VCC = 5.0 V, tPLH/tPHL remains ≤4.6 ns. Driving >50 pF increases delay nonlinearly; for 100 pF, measured tPLH rises to ~6.2 ns. Maintain CL ≤50 pF for guaranteed timing compliance in high-speed bus applications.
How does the IOFF feature behave when VCC is ramping during power-up?
IOFF activates when VCC drops below ~2.1 V and remains active until VCC exceeds ~2.1 V (per Section 9 footnote [1]). During power-up, outputs stay in high-impedance state until VCC crosses this threshold, then transition to functional mode only after stabilization - ensuring no bus contention during supply ramp.
Can both output enable pins (1OE and 2OE) be tied together for single-enable operation?
Yes. Connecting 1OE and 2OE to a common control signal is electrically valid and commonly used to simplify logic control. Doing so configures the device as a unified 8-bit buffer with shared enable, retaining full 3-state functionality and drive capability across all eight outputs simultaneously.
