Product details
Overview
74LVTH2244WM from ON Semiconductor is a low-voltage octal buffer/line driver with 3-STATE outputs and integrated 25Ω series output resistors, designed for memory address and clock distribution in 3.3V systems interfacing to 5V TTL buses. It features bushold inputs eliminating external pull-ups, ±12mA drive strength, and operates from 2.7V to 3.6V over –40°C to +85°C.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVTH2244WM datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include bushold input support, 25Ω output series termination, 3-STATE bus isolation timing (tPZH ≤ 7.7ns), and SOIC-20 package compatibility with JEDEC MS-013 footprint.
Technical Context
The 74LVTH2244WM implements dual 4-bit non-inverting buffers with independent 3-STATE enable controls (OE1/OE2), each gating four outputs (O0–O3 and O4–O7). Its bushold circuitry actively maintains input logic state when floating, enabling robust operation with unused data lines.
Each output integrates a 25Ω series resistor to dampen signal reflections on transmission lines, reducing overshoot/undershoot without requiring external termination. The device uses advanced BiCMOS technology to achieve ABT-class speed (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 5.3ns) while maintaining low ICCZ = 0.19mA in 3-STATE mode.
Key Specifications

| Supply Voltage | 2.7V to 3.6V - Ensures stable operation in 3.3V systems with ±0.3V tolerance margin. |
| Output Drive | ±12mA - Supports direct interface to 5V TTL loads without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 5.3ns at VCC = 2.7V - Enables high-speed address/data buffering in memory subsystems. |
| 3-STATE Enable Time | tPZH ≤ 7.7ns - Minimizes bus contention during dynamic enable/disable transitions. |
| Bushold Input Current | ±75µA at VI = 0.8V/2.0V - Actively holds floating inputs at valid logic levels, removing need for external pull-ups. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC244APWR | No bushold; 3.3V-only I/O; no integrated 25Ω resistors; lower drive (±24mA). | Requires external pull-ups for unused inputs; needs external series termination for signal integrity. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs bushold convenience and board-level termination is acceptable. |
| 74ALVC244MTCX | No bushold; higher speed (tPD ≤ 3.3ns); 3.3V-only I/O; no integrated 25Ω resistors. | Not 5V-tolerant; unsuitable for mixed-voltage bus interfaces without level shifters. | Choose for pure 3.3V systems demanding maximum speed and lowest propagation delay. |
Compared with SN74LVC244APWR and 74ALVC244MTCX, the 74LVTH2244WM uniquely combines bushold inputs, 5V-tolerant I/O, and integrated 25Ω output resistors-making it optimal for legacy bus upgrades and noise-sensitive 3.3V-to-5V bridging where layout simplicity and signal integrity are prioritized over raw speed.

FAQ
What is the function of the bushold feature in the 74LVTH2244WM?
The bushold feature in the 74LVTH2244WM actively maintains the last valid logic state on each input (I0–I7) when left unconnected, eliminating the need for external pull-up or pull-down resistors. This reduces component count and improves reliability in systems with partially populated address or control buses, and is confirmed in the DC Electrical Characteristics table for VI = 0.8V/2.0V with II(HOLD) = ±75µA.
Does the 74LVTH2244WM support 5V logic inputs while operating at 3.3V VCC?
Yes, the 74LVTH2244WM supports 5V-tolerant inputs with VI up to 5.5V while powered at VCC = 2.7V–3.6V, as specified in the Recommended Operating Conditions table. This allows direct connection to 5V TTL outputs without level-shifting circuitry, a key design advantage for mixed-voltage bus interfacing.
What is the purpose of the 25Ω series resistors on the 74LVTH2244WM outputs?
The 25Ω series resistors integrated into each output (O0–O7) of the 74LVTH2244WM provide source termination to reduce signal reflections, overshoot, and undershoot on PCB traces. This improves signal integrity without requiring discrete resistors, particularly beneficial for trace lengths up to 10–15cm in memory and clock distribution applications.
How does the 74LVTH2244WM handle power-up and power-down sequencing?
The 74LVTH2244WM features power-up/down high-impedance behavior: outputs remain in 3-STATE during VCC ramp-up and ramp-down, preventing bus contention and glitches. This is verified in the General Description and supported by IPU/PD leakage current ≤ ±100µA under 0–1.5V conditions.
What package type is used for the 74LVTH2244WM and is it RoHS-compliant?
The 74LVTH2244WM uses a 20-lead SOIC package (JEDEC MS-013, 0.300" wide, M20B), and is lead-free per JEDEC J-STD-020B, as confirmed in the Ordering Information section. The package drawing (Figure 1) specifies land pattern SOIC127P1030X265-20L and conforms to industrial reflow profiles.
