Product details
Overview
HEF40244BP,652 from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Philips) is an octal non-inverting buffer IC with 3-state outputs, designed for bidirectional bus interfacing in 5 V to 15 V digital systems. It delivers ±25 mA output drive, features Schmitt-trigger inputs with 220–320 mV hysteresis, and supports high-capacitive load driving up to 50 pF. Used in industrial control backplanes and legacy TTL-compatible data buses.
For engineers reviewing the HEF40244BP,652 datasheet, HEF40244BP,652 pinout, HEF40244BP,652 application, or HEF40244BP,652 equivalent, key selection criteria include 3-state enable timing (tPHZ ≤70 ns at VDD = 10 V), input hysteresis for noise immunity, output current capability, voltage range compatibility (5–15 V), and DIL-20 package footprint constraints.
Technical Context
The HEF40244BP,652 implements dual 4-bit non-inverting buffers with independent active-low 3-state enables (EOA, EOB), enabling selective bus isolation. Each output stage combines P-channel MOS and bipolar NPN transistors for robust sourcing/sinking across its full supply range.
Input Schmitt-trigger action ensures reliable operation with slow-rising signals (e.g., mechanical switch debouncing or long-trace CMOS/TTL interfaces), while propagation delays scale linearly with load capacitance per published formulas (e.g., tPLH = 29 ns + 0.02 ns/pF × CL at VDD = 15 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 5 V to 15 V - supports direct interface with legacy TTL, CMOS, and mixed-voltage bus systems |
| Output Drive Current | ±25 mA - sufficient to drive 50 pF loads with <60 ns transitions at 15 V, enabling fanout to multiple CMOS inputs |
| Input Hysteresis | 220–320 mV - rejects noise spikes on slow edges, critical for industrial sensor signal conditioning |
| Propagation Delay (VDD=15 V) | tPLH/tPHL ≤60 ns - ensures timing predictability in synchronous bus arbitration circuits |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HC244N | CMOS family; max VDD = 6 V; lower drive (±7.8 mA); no input hysteresis | Not suitable for >6 V systems or noisy environments without external filtering | Prefer HEF40244BP,652 where 5–15 V operation or inherent noise immunity is required |
| SN74ACT244N | TTL-compatible CMOS; VDD = 4.5–5.5 V only; higher speed (tPD ≈ 6 ns); no hysteresis | Limited to 5 V systems; requires external Schmitt triggers for noisy inputs | Choose HEF40244BP,652 for wide-voltage, noise-tolerant, or legacy 15 V bus use cases |
Compared with 74HC244N and SN74ACT244N, the HEF40244BP,652 uniquely supports 5–15 V operation, integrates Schmitt-trigger inputs, and delivers higher output current-making it the only option among the three for robust industrial backplane and mixed-voltage legacy system interfacing.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for the HEF40244BP,652?
The HEF40244BP,652 has an absolute maximum supply voltage (VDD) of 18 V, with recommended operating range from 5 V to 15 V. Operation above 15 V may degrade long-term reliability and is not characterized in the datasheet. The HEF40244BP,652 maintains full DC and AC specifications across this 5–15 V window, including output drive and propagation delay.
Does the HEF40244BP,652 have Schmitt-trigger inputs, and how does that affect system design?
Yes, the HEF40244BP,652 incorporates Schmitt-trigger inputs with 220–320 mV hysteresis depending on supply voltage. This eliminates the need for external RC filters when interfacing with slow or noisy signals such as mechanical switches or long PCB traces. The HEF40244BP,652 thus simplifies board layout and improves noise immunity without firmware or passive component overhead.
Is the HEF40244BP,652 pin-compatible with standard TTL 244 devices?
Yes, the HEF40244BP,652 is pin and functionally compatible with the TTL 74LS244 and other industry-standard '244' octal buffers. Its DIL-20 pinout matches the 74LS244 exactly, including identical input/output groupings and active-low enable placement. The HEF40244BP,652 can serve as a direct replacement in existing layouts without modification.
What is the output current capability of the HEF40244BP,652, and how does it compare to modern alternatives?
The HEF40244BP,652 provides ±25 mA DC output current per pin, significantly higher than most contemporary 74HC or 74ACT buffers (typically ±7.8 mA or ±24 mA peak). This allows direct driving of heavier capacitive loads or multiple downstream inputs without buffering. The HEF40244BP,652 remains advantageous in legacy industrial systems where high drive strength and wide voltage range are essential.
How does the 3-state enable timing of the HEF40244BP,652 impact bus arbitration in multi-master systems?
The HEF40244BP,652 offers fast 3-state disable (tPHZ ≤60 ns at VDD = 15 V) and enable (tPZH ≤60 ns) times, enabling precise bus turnaround in time-critical arbitration. With independent EOA and EOB controls, the HEF40244BP,652 allows staggered or asymmetric bus release-critical for avoiding glitches when multiple peripherals share a common data path.
