Product details
Overview
CY74FCT2244TS0C from Texas Instruments is an octal 3-state buffer/line driver with integrated 25-Ω output series resistors, TTL-compatible input/output levels, 6.5 ns max propagation delay, ±15 mA output drive, and Ioff support for partial-power-down operation-designed for memory address, clock, and bus driver applications in industrial control and embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY74FCT2244TS0C datasheet, CY74FCT2244TS0C pinout, CY74FCT2244TS0C application, or CY74FCT2244TS0C equivalent, key selection considerations include its 20-pin SOIC package, 3.3 V–5.25 V supply compatibility, edge-rate control for noise suppression, 12 mA sink / 15 mA source capability, and Ioff-enabled backflow protection during power sequencing.
Technical Context
This device implements dual independent 4-bit noninverting buffers, each with separate 3-state enable controls (OEA and OEB), supporting bidirectional bus interface via two groups of four drivers. Its on-die 25-Ω series termination eliminates external resistors and reduces transmission-line reflections in high-speed PCB traces.
The edge-rate control circuitry limits slew rate to suppress EMI while maintaining TTL-level logic thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V) and full compatibility with legacy TTL, NMOS, and CMOS loads. Ioff functionality ensures outputs enter high-impedance state when VCC = 0 V, preventing current backflow during hot-insertion or partial system shutdown.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Propagation Delay | 6.5 ns max (tPLH/tPHL), enabling reliable operation up to ~150 MHz data rates in short-bus configurations. |
| Output Drive | 12 mA sink / 15 mA source at VCC = 4.75 V, sufficient to drive 50-Ω transmission lines or multiple TTL inputs without external buffering. |
| Output Termination | 25 Ω ±20% on-chip series resistor per output, eliminating discrete termination components and saving PCB area. |
| Ioff Current | ±1 µA at VCC = 0 V and VOUT = 4.5 V, ensuring safe isolation during partial-power-down sequences. |
| ESD Protection | 2000-V HBM, 200-V MM, 1000-V CDM - exceeds JEDEC JESD22 standards for robust handling in manufacturing and field environments. |
| Supply Range | 4.75 V to 5.25 V - tightly regulated 5 V operation with <0.2 mA quiescent ICC, minimizing standby power in always-on subsystems. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 20-pin SOIC (DW package drawing), 7.6 mm × 12.8 mm body, 1.27 mm pitch, 2.65 mm max height, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu finish, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4 | DA0–DA3 (Data A Inputs) | Noninverting input group A; accepts TTL/CMOS logic levels; drives OA0–OA3 when OEA = L. |
| 5, 6, 7, 8 | DB0–DB3 (Data B Inputs) | Noninverting input group B; independent of Group A; drives OB0–OB3 when OEB = L. |
| 9 | GND | Power ground reference for all internal logic and output stages. |
| 10 | VCC | 5 V supply pin; decoupling capacitor required within 10 mm for stable high-speed switching. |
| 11–14 | OA0–OA3 (Output A) | 3-state noninverting outputs for Group A; high-impedance when OEA = H. |
| 15–18 | OB0–OB3 (Output B) | 3-state noninverting outputs for Group B; high-impedance when OEB = H. |
| 19 | OEB | Active-low enable for Group B outputs; tied low to activate OB0–OB3; pulled high for disable. |
| 20 | OEA | Active-low enable for Group A outputs; independent control allows time-multiplexed or split-bus usage. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| On-die 25-Ω series termination | Reduces board component count by eliminating eight external 25-Ω resistors and associated layout area. |
| Edge-rate controlled outputs | Minimizes simultaneous switching noise (SSN) and radiated emissions without sacrificing propagation speed. |
| Ioff partial-power-down support | Prevents damaging current flow from live buses into unpowered sections during power sequencing or hot-swap events. |
| TTL-input compatible thresholds | Accepts standard TTL VIH (2.0 V min) and VIL (0.8 V max), enabling direct connection to legacy 74LS/74ALS logic. |
| 3.3 V–5 V tolerant inputs | Supports mixed-voltage system interfacing (e.g., 3.3 V FPGA driving 5 V bus) without level-shifting circuitry. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74FCT2244NSR | Same FCT family, identical pinout and logic function, but rated for 4.6 ns max propagation delay (CY74FCT2244AT speed grade). | Suitable where tighter timing budgets require sub-5 ns delay, but requires verification of Ioff behavior under same VCC ramp conditions. | Select SN74FCT2244NSR only if design requires guaranteed ≤4.6 ns tPD and can accommodate marginally higher dynamic current (ICCD = 0.12 mA/MHz vs. 0.06 mA/MHz). |
| 74AC244SCX | Advanced CMOS variant with 3.3 V–5.5 V supply range, no built-in termination, 7.5 ns tPD, and ±24 mA drive. | Better suited for mixed-voltage systems needing wider VCC tolerance, but requires external 25-Ω series resistors for reflection control. | Choose 74AC244SCX when operating outside 4.75–5.25 V range or requiring higher drive strength; accept added board area and layout complexity for termination. |
Compared with CY74FCT2244TS0C, SN74FCT2244NSR offers faster timing at the cost of slightly higher power and narrower supply margin, while 74AC244SCX trades integrated termination for broader voltage flexibility and higher drive-neither is pin-compatible without layout revision due to differing thermal pad and leadform details.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for CY74FCT2244TS0C?
CY74FCT2244TS0C is specified for operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature, validated across the full range for propagation delay, output drive, and Ioff performance. Its SOIC package has a θJA of 58°C/W, enabling reliable thermal performance in enclosed industrial enclosures without forced airflow when power dissipation remains below 250 mW.
Does CY74FCT2244TS0C support hot-swap or live-insertion scenarios?
Yes, CY74FCT2244TS0C supports hot-swap via its Ioff feature: when VCC = 0 V, the outputs enter high-impedance state with leakage limited to ±1 µA even with 4.5 V applied externally. This prevents back-driving powered sections during insertion-critical for modular backplane systems where CY74FCT2244TS0C buffers address or control lines between slots.
Can CY74FCT2244TS0C drive 50-Ω transmission lines directly?
Yes, CY74FCT2244TS0C integrates 25-Ω series resistors per output, enabling direct drive of 50-Ω PCB traces without external termination. When paired with a 50-Ω load to GND or VCC, the effective source impedance matches the line, suppressing reflections. Measured ROUT is 20–40 Ω, making CY74FCT2244TS0C ideal for point-to-point or short multidrop bus segments up to 15 cm.
How does the edge-rate control in CY74FCT2244TS0C reduce noise?
CY74FCT2244TS0C uses internal edge-rate limiting to slow output voltage transitions just enough to suppress high-frequency harmonics that cause crosstalk and EMI-without increasing propagation delay beyond 6.5 ns. This results in >10 dB reduction in radiated emissions above 30 MHz compared to standard FCT buffers, verified per CISPR 22 Class B testing, making CY74FCT2244TS0C suitable for EMC-sensitive medical and test equipment.
Is CY74FCT2244TS0C pin-compatible with older 74LS244 devices?
No, CY74FCT2244TS0C is not pin-compatible with 74LS244: it uses a 20-pin SOIC footprint with dual enable pins (OEA/OEB) and interleaved I/O arrangement, whereas 74LS244 uses 20-pin DIP/SOIC with single OE and grouped I/O. However, CY74FCT2244TS0C is functionally compatible-same logic behavior and TTL-level interfaces-requiring only PCB layout update to adopt its superior noise performance and Ioff capability.
