Product details
Overview
74HC244DTR2G from onsemi is an octal 3-state noninverting buffer/line driver with two active-low output enables, operating from 2.0 V to 6.0 V, delivering ±35 mA output drive per pin and supporting bus-oriented systems such as memory address drivers and clock distribution networks.
For engineers reviewing the 74HC244DTR2G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include 3-state control timing (tPLZ ≤ 165 ns at 125°C), TSSOP-20 package compatibility, LSTTL load drive (15 loads), and JEDEC Std. 7A compliance for industrial bus interfacing.
Technical Context
The 74HC244DTR2G implements eight independent noninverting buffers grouped into two 4-bit banks (A and B), each controlled by a dedicated active-low enable (Enable A on Pin 1, Enable B on Pin 19). Outputs enter high-impedance state when respective enable is high.
Designed for CMOS/NMOS/TTL interoperability, it accepts standard CMOS logic levels and-when pulled up-LSTTL inputs. Its propagation delay ranges from 15 ns (VCC = 6.0 V, TA = 25°C) to 135 ns (VCC = 2.0 V, TA = 125°C) for A→YA or B→YB paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.0 V to 6.0 V - supports dual-supply legacy systems and battery-powered 3.3 V/5 V mixed-voltage buses |
| Output Drive Current | ±35 mA per pin - drives 15 LSTTL loads without external buffering in high-fanout address/data lines |
| Propagation Delay (A→YA) | 15 ns max at VCC = 6.0 V, TA = 25°C - enables reliable operation in 33 MHz bus cycles with margin |
| 3-State Enable Delay | tPLZ/tPHZ ≤ 165 ns at VCC = 2.0 V, TA = 125°C - ensures deterministic bus release timing under worst-case thermal conditions |
| Input Leakage Current | ±1.0 µA max at VCC = 6.0 V, TA = 125°C - minimizes static power draw and prevents unintended enable activation in low-power hold modes |
| ESD Rating | HBM 2000 V - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 for board-level handling robustness in manufacturing environments |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-20 package (Case 948E), 0.65 mm pitch, Pb-free, rated for –55°C to +125°C operation. Dimensions: 6.60 mm × 4.40 mm × 1.20 mm (L × W × H).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 19 | Enable A / Enable B | Active-low controls for Bank A (Pins 2,4,6,8 → YA1–YA4) and Bank B (Pins 11,13,15,17 → YB1–YB4); independent bank isolation |
| 2,4,6,8 | A1–A4 Inputs | Noninverting data inputs for Bank A; tied to corresponding YA outputs when Enable A = LOW |
| 11,13,15,17 | B1–B4 Inputs | Noninverting data inputs for Bank B; tied to corresponding YB outputs when Enable B = LOW |
| 18,16,14,12 | YA1–YA4 Outputs | Bank A buffered outputs; high-impedance when Enable A = HIGH - enables bidirectional bus sharing |
| 9,7,5,3 | YB1–YB4 Outputs | Bank B buffered outputs; high-impedance when Enable B = HIGH - allows interleaved or time-multiplexed bus access |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply rail; decoupling capacitor required within 10 mm for stable switching noise suppression |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference; must be connected to low-impedance system ground plane to limit ground bounce |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Octal noninverting buffering with dual 3-state control | Enables independent gating of two 4-bit data channels on shared bus infrastructure without signal inversion |
| 15 LSTTL load drive capability | Eliminates need for external line drivers in legacy TTL-compatible memory and peripheral address decoding |
| JEDEC Std. 7A compliance | Guarantees interoperability with industry-standard high-speed CMOS logic families across voltage and timing domains |
| High noise immunity (CMOS input threshold) | VIH ≥ 3.15 V / VIL ≤ 1.35 V at VCC = 4.5 V - rejects >400 mV of coupled noise on PCB traces |
| Pb-free TSSOP-20 packaging | Meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) for reflow compatibility |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal noninverting buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HC244N | DIP-20 package, higher thermal resistance (θJA = 70°C/W vs. TSSOP's 130°C/W), no tape-and-reel option | Suitable for prototyping and through-hole PCBs; not recommended for high-density or thermally constrained layouts | Select SN74HC244N only when manual soldering or breadboard validation is required prior to TSSOP production use. |
| MC74HC244ADTR2G | Identical electrical specs and pinout; manufactured by ON Semiconductor under alternate part numbering (same die, same wafer lot traceability) | No functional difference; used interchangeably in automotive-grade BOMs where AEC-Q100 qualification is mandated | Choose MC74HC244ADTR2G when AEC-Q100 Grade 2 (–40°C to +105°C) compliance is contractually required for automotive ECUs. |
Compared with SN74HC244N and MC74HC244ADTR2G, the 74HC244DTR2G offers optimal surface-mount manufacturability in space-constrained industrial designs, with verified 125°C operation and native tape-and-reel delivery for SMT line integration - unlike the DIP variant, and without requiring automotive qualification overhead unless specified.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for the 74HC244DTR2G?
The 74HC244DTR2G is rated for continuous operation from –55°C to +125°C, as confirmed in the Recommended Operating Conditions table (Page 3 of the datasheet). This full industrial temperature range is supported in the TSSOP-20 package with appropriate PCB thermal relief and airflow.
Does the 74HC244DTR2G support 3.3 V logic systems?
Yes, the 74HC244DTR2G operates reliably at VCC = 3.3 V, with guaranteed VOH ≥ 3.17 V and VOL ≤ 0.33 V under 6.0 mA load (Page 3, DC Electrical Characteristics). Its VIH/VIL thresholds scale with VCC, ensuring clean switching in mixed-voltage 3.3 V/5 V systems.
How many output enable pins does the 74HC244DTR2G have?
The 74HC244DTR2G has two active-low output enable pins: Enable A (Pin 1) controls YA1–YA4, and Enable B (Pin 19) controls YB1–YB4. This dual-enable architecture allows independent 4-bit channel gating - essential for time-multiplexed bus sharing.
Is the 74HC244DTR2G pin-compatible with the 74LS244?
Yes, the 74HC244DTR2G is explicitly designed to be pinout-identical to the 74LS244 (first sentence of datasheet Page 1). All 20 pins match in function and location, enabling direct replacement in existing LS-based designs with improved speed, noise immunity, and power efficiency.
What is the typical power dissipation of the 74HC244DTR2G at 5 V?
At VCC = 5.0 V and 25°C, the typical no-load dynamic power consumption is calculated using CPD = 34 pF (Page 4): PD = CPD × VCC² × f + ICC × VCC. With f = 1 MHz and ICC ≈ 4 µA, PD ≈ 0.85 mW - well below the TSSOP package's 450 mW absolute maximum rating.
