Product details
Overview
74LVT16244MTDX from Fairchild Semiconductor is a 16-bit non-inverting buffer/line driver with 3-STATE outputs, designed for memory and address bus driving, clock distribution, and TTL-level interfacing in 3.3V systems. It features nibble-wise (4-bit) output enable control, ±32 mA/±64 mA drive capability, and operates across 2.7–3.6 V supply with propagation delays as low as 1.2 ns at 3.3 V.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVT16244MTDX datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include 3.3V-compatible 5V-tolerant I/O, independent 4-bit 3-STATE control, low dynamic noise (VOLP ≤ 0.8 V), and TSSOP-48 packaging for high-density board layouts.
Technical Context
The 74LVT16244MTDX implements sixteen independent non-inverting buffers grouped into four 4-bit sections, each controlled by a dedicated active-low OE pin (OE1–OE4). Its BiCMOS process enables ABT-class speed (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 3.9 ns) while maintaining low ICCZ (0.19 mA) in 3-STATE mode.
All inputs tolerate 0–5.5 V, enabling direct interfacing with 5V logic without level shifters; outputs drive ±32 mA (HIGH) and ±64 mA (LOW) into 500 Ω loads. Power-up/down high-impedance behavior prevents bus contention during hot insertion or supply sequencing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - Ensures stable operation in standard 3.3V systems with ±0.3V tolerance. |
| I/O Voltage Tolerance | 0 V to 5.5 V - Allows direct connection to 5V peripherals without external level translation. |
| Output Drive | 32 mA source / 64 mA sink - Supports heavy capacitive loads and multiple TTL inputs per output. |
| Propagation Delay | 1.2–3.9 ns (CL = 50 pF) - Enables reliable timing in high-speed address/data buses up to ~250 MHz. |
| 3-STATE Enable/Disable Time | tPZH ≤ 5.0 ns, tPHZ ≤ 5.2 ns - Minimizes bus turnaround latency in bidirectional data transfer protocols. |
| Input Capacitance | 4 pF - Reduces loading on upstream drivers and preserves signal integrity in fanout-critical paths. |
| Supply Current (3-STATE) | 0.19 mA - Low quiescent power supports battery-backed or energy-sensitive applications. |
Pinout & Package
74LVT16244MTDX is packaged in a 48-lead Thin Shrink Small Outline Package (TSSOP), JEDEC MO-153, 6.1 mm wide, with 0.5 mm lead pitch. Pin 1 is marked by a dot or beveled corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 | I0–I15 | 16 buffered data inputs - Accept 0–5.5 V signals; no bushold (unlike LVTH variant). |
| 17, 19, 21, 23 | OE1–OE4 | Active-low 4-bit output enable controls - Each enables one 4-bit nibble (O0–O3, O4–O7, etc.). |
| 18, 20, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36 | O0–O15 | 16 non-inverting 3-STATE outputs - Drive 3.3V buses with TTL-compatible voltage levels. |
| 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48 | GND, VCC | 12 total power pins (6 GND + 6 VCC) - Distributed for low-noise operation and reduced ground bounce. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Nibble-controlled 3-STATE | Four independent OE inputs allow selective activation of 4-bit output groups - critical for partial bus isolation in multi-master systems. |
| 5V-tolerant I/O | Inputs accept 0–5.5 V; outputs drive 3.3V logic while sinking/sourcing TTL-level currents - eliminates need for discrete level shifters. |
| Hot-plug compatible | Power-up/down high-impedance ensures glitch-free insertion into live backplanes or hot-swap slots without bus contention. |
| Low dynamic noise | VOLP ≤ 0.8 V under switching load (CL = 50 pF) - reduces crosstalk and maintains signal margin in dense routing environments. |
| BiCMOS speed/power balance | ABT-equivalent propagation delay (≤3.9 ns) with ICCZ = 0.19 mA - delivers high-speed performance without excessive heat or supply ripple. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit non-inverting buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC16244ADGGR | Lower drive (24 mA/24 mA), 1.65–3.6 V VCC, no 5V-tolerant inputs - requires external level shifters for 5V interfaces. | Suitable only in fully 3.3V-only systems; not drop-in for mixed-voltage designs. | Select when cost and ultra-low power (<1 µA ICC) outweigh drive strength and voltage flexibility. |
| 74LVTH16244MTD | Includes bushold inputs (eliminates pull-ups), identical pinout and specs otherwise - higher II(HOLD) = 75 µA required for state change. | Better for floating-input scenarios (e.g., unpopulated daughterboards); same TSSOP-48 package. | Choose when unused inputs may float and external pull-ups must be avoided - no PCB change needed. |
Compared with SN74LVC16244ADGGR and 74LVTH16244MTD, the 74LVT16244MTDX uniquely balances 5V-tolerant I/O, high drive strength, and industrial temperature support in a single TSSOP-48 package - making it optimal for legacy interface bridging where robustness and compatibility are prioritized over minimal quiescent current.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the 74LVT16244MTDX?
The 74LVT16244MTDX is rated for free-air operating temperatures from –40°C to +85°C, meeting industrial-grade environmental requirements. This range is confirmed in the "Recommended Operating Conditions" table of the Fairchild DS500151 datasheet, and applies specifically to the MTD48 (TSSOP) package variant. Thermal derating is not required within this span, and the device maintains full DC and AC specifications across the entire range.
Does the 74LVT16244MTDX have bushold inputs?
No, the 74LVT16244MTDX does not include bushold circuitry on its inputs. Bushold is exclusive to the LVTH variant (e.g., 74LVTH16244MTD). The 74LVT16244MTDX requires external pull-up or pull-down resistors on unused inputs to prevent floating states, as explicitly stated in the General Description and Features sections of the DS500151 datasheet.
Can the 74LVT16244MTDX drive 5V TTL loads directly?
Yes, the 74LVT16244MTDX can directly drive 5V TTL loads because its outputs are specified to sink up to 64 mA and source up to 32 mA while maintaining VOL ≤ 0.55 V and VOH ≥ VCC – 0.2 V (≥ 3.1 V at VCC = 3.3 V), which satisfies TTL input thresholds. Its 5V-tolerant inputs also accept 0–5.5 V signals, enabling true mixed-voltage interoperation without level shifters.
What is the pin-compatible alternative to the 74LVT16244MTDX with bushold functionality?
The 74LVTH16244MTD is the pin-compatible bushold-enabled counterpart to the 74LVT16244MTDX, sharing identical TSSOP-48 (MTD48) packaging, pinout, and electrical specifications except for the addition of bushold on all data inputs. No PCB layout changes are required when substituting - only firmware or system-level handling of unused inputs differs due to the self-holding behavior.
Is the 74LVT16244MTDX suitable for hot-swap applications?
Yes, the 74LVT16244MTDX supports live insertion/extraction per its datasheet Features section. Its power-up/down high-impedance behavior ensures outputs remain in 3-STATE during supply ramp-up or ramp-down, preventing bus contention or glitches when inserted into powered-backplane systems - a key requirement for modular industrial and telecom chassis designs.
