Product details
Overview
74LVT244ADB,112 from Nexperia is a 3.3 V octal buffer/line driver with 3-state outputs, designed for high-speed bus interface applications in industrial and embedded systems. It features dual 4-bit buffers controlled by independent active-low output enables (1OE, 2OE), ±32 mA/±64 mA drive capability, overvoltage-tolerant inputs up to 5.5 V, and bus hold circuitry eliminating external pull-ups.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVT244ADB,112 datasheet, 74LVT244ADB,112 pinout, 74LVT244ADB,112 application, or 74LVT244ADB,112 equivalent, key selection criteria include 3-state timing (tPZH ≤ 5.2 ns), wide 2.7–3.6 V supply range, IOFF power-down support, and compatibility with TTL-level signaling in mixed-voltage backplanes.
Technical Context
This BiCMOS device implements two independent 4-bit non-inverting 3-state buffers, each gated by its own enable input (1OE controls Y0–Y3; 2OE controls Y0–Y3 of second group). The bus hold circuitry actively maintains logic states on unused inputs without external resistors, reducing BOM count and board space.
It supports live insertion/extraction and power-up 3-state behavior, ensuring outputs remain high-impedance during power ramp-up. Input clamping and IOFF circuitry enable partial power-down operation while maintaining signal integrity on shared buses tied to 5 V domains.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply voltage | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - Enables direct use with 3.3 V logic rails and tolerance to common supply variations. |
| Input voltage range | 0 V to 5.5 V - Allows safe interfacing with 5 V TTL signals without level shifters. |
| Output drive (LOW) | 64 mA - Sinks sufficient current to drive multiple CMOS/TTL loads or terminate stubs on high-speed buses. |
| Output drive (HIGH) | −32 mA - Sources current adequate for driving light capacitive loads or pull-up-referenced receivers. |
| Propagation delay | 1.0–4.1 ns (VCC = 3.0–3.6 V) - Supports >200 MHz bus operation with tight timing margins. |
| Bus hold current | ±75 μA to ±150 μA - Actively retains input state at VI = 0.8 V or 2.0 V, preventing floating-induced glitches. |
| IOFF leakage | ±100 μA (VCC = 0 V) - Limits backfeed current when powered down, protecting upstream drivers. |
| Operating temperature | −40 °C to +85 °C - Qualified for industrial ambient environments without derating. |
Pinout & Package
74LVT244ADB,112 is packaged in SOT339-1 (SSOP20), a 20-lead shrink small outline package with 0.65 mm pitch and 7.2 mm body width. Pin numbering follows standard SSOP convention with pin 1 marked by index notch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 19 | 1OE, 2OE | Active-low output enable inputs - Independently disable first or second group of four outputs into high-impedance state. |
| 2, 4, 6, 8 | 1A0–1A3 | Data inputs for first buffer group - Drive corresponding 1Y0–1Y3 outputs when 1OE = LOW. |
| 11, 13, 15, 17 | 2A0–2A3 | Data inputs for second buffer group - Drive corresponding 2Y0–2Y3 outputs when 2OE = LOW. |
| 18, 16, 14, 12 | 1Y0–1Y3 | 3-state outputs for first group - Non-inverting buffered copies of 1A0–1A3, disabled when 1OE = HIGH. |
| 9, 7, 5, 3 | 2Y0–2Y3 | 3-state outputs for second group - Non-inverting buffered copies of 2A0–2A3, disabled when 2OE = HIGH. |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference - All internal circuitry and I/O referenced to this 0 V node. |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply - Powers internal BiCMOS logic and output stages; must be decoupled locally. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Octal 3-state buffering | Two independent 4-bit groups with separate OE control enable flexible bus segmentation and direction management. |
| Overvoltage-tolerant inputs | Withstands 5.5 V inputs while powered from 3.3 V - eliminates need for external level translators in mixed-voltage systems. |
| Bus hold circuitry | Retains last valid logic state on un-driven inputs - removes requirement for external pull-up/pull-down resistors and reduces layout complexity. |
| IOFF partial power-down | Blocks current flow between powered and unpowered sections of a bus - prevents back-powering and ensures safe hot-swap operation. |
| Live insertion/extraction support | Outputs enter 3-state during power transitions - avoids bus contention when inserting/removing cards in live backplanes. |
| Latch-up immunity | Exceeds 500 mA per JESD78 Class II Level B - ensures robustness against transient faults in noisy industrial environments. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC244APWR | Lower drive (±24 mA), narrower VCC range (1.65–3.6 V), no bus hold or IOFF. | Suitable for low-power, single-supply 3.3 V systems without mixed-voltage or hot-swap requirements. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs need for overvoltage tolerance and power-down isolation. |
| 74ALVC244MTCX | Faster propagation (≤3.2 ns), same VCC range, but lacks bus hold and IOFF; higher ICC (0.4 mA typical). | Better for ultra-low-latency timing-critical paths where static power and bus integrity are secondary. | Choose only if sub-3.5 ns delay is mandatory and external pull-ups can be accommodated. |
Compared with SN74LVC244APWR and 74ALVC244MTCX, the 74LVT244ADB,112 uniquely combines 5.5 V input tolerance, bus hold, and IOFF in a single octal buffer - making it the only option for robust industrial backplane interfaces requiring zero external biasing and safe live insertion.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the 74LVT244ADB,112 can tolerate?
The 74LVT244ADB,112 accepts input voltages up to +5.5 V regardless of VCC level, as confirmed in Table 4 (Limiting Values) and Section 2 (Features). This overvoltage tolerance applies to all data and enable inputs and allows direct connection to 5 V TTL buses without external protection or level shifting.
Does the 74LVT244ADB,112 require external pull-up resistors on unused inputs?
No. The device integrates bus hold circuitry on all data inputs (1A0–1A3, 2A0–2A3), which actively maintains the last valid logic state with ±75 μA to ±150 μA holding current. This eliminates the need for external pull-up or pull-down resistors, reducing component count and PCB area.
Can the 74LVT244ADB,112 be used in hot-swap applications?
Yes. Its IOFF circuitry blocks current flow when VCC = 0 V, and power-up 3-state behavior ensures outputs remain high-impedance during power ramp-up. These features, combined with live insertion/extraction support cited in Section 2, make it suitable for hot-pluggable module designs in industrial backplanes.
What is the guaranteed propagation delay at 3.3 V supply?
At VCC = 3.3 V and Tamb = 25 °C, the typical propagation delay is 2.5 ns (tPLH) and 2.6 ns (tPHL), with maximum values of 4.1 ns for both transitions (Table 7). These values are guaranteed across the full −40 °C to +85 °C operating range per the recommended conditions in Table 5.
