Product details
Overview
SN74ABT2244APWR from Texas Instruments is an octal noninverting buffer/line driver with 3-state outputs, designed for memory address and bus-oriented applications. It operates from 4.5 V to 5.5 V, supports –40°C to 85°C ambient temperature, features 25-Ω integrated series output resistors, and delivers 12 mA sink capability per output - enabling clean signal integrity in high-density PCB layouts for industrial control backplanes.
For engineers reviewing the SN74ABT2244APWR datasheet, SN74ABT2244APWR pinout, SN74ABT2244APWR application, or SN74ABT2244APWR equivalent, key selection criteria include its TSSOP-20 (PW) package, 3-state enable timing (tPZL ≤ 8.3 ns), output ground bounce <1 V, and compatibility with 5-V TTL/CMOS logic families in bus-hold and clock distribution systems.
Technical Context
This device implements two independent 4-bit noninverting buffer groups (1A→1Y and 2A→2Y), each controlled by a dedicated active-low output-enable input (1OE, 2OE). Its EPIC-IIB BiCMOS process enables low power dissipation while maintaining TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIL = 0.8 V, VIH = 2 V) and rail-to-rail output swing under load.
The SN74ABT2244APWR enters high-impedance state during power-up/down when VCC is between 0 and 2.1 V; above 2.1 V, OE must be pulled up to VCC via external resistor to guarantee tri-state behavior. Output ports integrate 25-Ω series resistors to suppress overshoot/undershoot without requiring external termination.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with standard 5-V logic rails and tolerance against supply ripple. |
| Output Sink Current | 12 mA per Y output - sufficient to drive multiple TTL inputs or short PCB traces without external buffering. |
| tPZL (OE→Y disable) | Max 8.3 ns at VCC = 5 V - enables fast bus release for time-critical multiplexed data paths. |
| VOL @ IOL = 12 mA | ≤ 0.8 V - guarantees solid logic-low margin across temperature and voltage extremes. |
| Input Clamp Current | –18 mA - protects inputs from negative transients exceeding –0.5 V, supporting robust ESD immunity. |
| Thermal Resistance θJA | 128°C/W (PW package) - informs thermal design margin for continuous operation at full output loading. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-20 (PW) package: 6.95 mm × 4.4 mm × 1.2 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, exposed pad not present, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu finish, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE, 2OE | Active-low output enable | Controls group-wide 3-state behavior; OE = low enables outputs, OE = high disables all Y pins to high-Z. |
| 1A1–1A4, 2A1–2A4 | Noninverting data inputs | Eight parallel inputs grouped into two sets of four; no internal inversion - A drives Y directly. |
| 1Y1–1Y4, 2Y1–2Y4 | Noninverting 3-state outputs | Eight buffered outputs with integrated 25-Ω series resistance - reduces ringing on stubbed buses. |
| GND (Pin 10), VCC (Pin 11) | Power terminals | Dual-supply reference points; decoupling capacitor placement near Pin 10/11 is critical for noise suppression. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 25-Ω output series resistors | Eliminates need for external termination resistors on PCB traces, reducing BOM count and layout area. |
| High-impedance during power sequencing | Outputs remain tri-stated when VCC is between 0 and 2.1 V - prevents bus contention during hot-plug or brownout events. |
| Low output ground bounce (VOLP < 1 V) | Minimizes simultaneous switching noise in dense digital systems, improving signal integrity on shared return paths. |
| Latch-up immunity > 500 mA | Meets JEDEC JESD-17 - ensures reliability in noisy industrial environments with transient coupling. |
| ESD protection > 2 kV HBM | Exceeds MIL-STD-883 Method 3015 - supports handling and assembly without special ESD controls. |
Applications
| Memory Address Buffering | Industrial Backplane Interface |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving address lines from microcontroller to multiple SRAM/Flash devices on a shared bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Noninverting octal buffer providing fan-out expansion and level translation between controller and memory chips. Use Value: Integrated 25-Ω resistors suppress reflections on long address traces, while 3-state control allows dynamic bus sharing among multiple masters. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Glitch-free buffer isolating tester logic from DUT power domains and preventing backfeed. Use Value: Input clamp current (–18 mA) tolerates ±0.5 V fault conditions; wide VCC range accommodates fixture supply variations. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ABT244APWR | Same pinout, identical electrical specs, but marked as commercial-grade ABT244 variant - functionally identical to SN74ABT2244APWR per TI documentation. | No functional difference; used interchangeably in non-military designs where ABT2244A/ABT244A part numbering reflects legacy catalog alignment. | Select SN74ABT244APWR only if sourcing constraints require alternate TI orderable ID; same footprint, timing, and drive strength. |
| 74LVT244PW,118 | 3.3-V optimized LVTH logic; lower VCC (2.7–3.6 V), higher speed (tPD ≈ 3.3 ns), but incompatible 5-V input tolerance - requires level-shifting. | Suitable for mixed-voltage 3.3-V systems with tighter timing budgets; not drop-in replaceable due to supply and interface mismatch. | Choose only when migrating to 3.3-V infrastructure; verify input voltage compatibility and add level shifters if interfacing with 5-V peripherals. |
Compared with SN74ABT244APWR, the SN74ABT2244APWR offers identical functionality and pin compatibility, whereas 74LVT244PW,118 demands system-level voltage redesign and introduces interface complexity - making SN74ABT2244APWR optimal for legacy 5-V bus expansion.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for SN74ABT2244APWR?
The SN74ABT2244APWR is characterized for operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This industrial-grade rating ensures reliable performance in factory automation controllers, motor drives, and outdoor communications equipment where thermal cycling occurs. The device maintains specified timing and drive strength across this full range, with no derating required up to 85°C.
Does SN74ABT2244APWR require external pull-up resistors on OE pins?
Yes - to guarantee high-impedance state when VCC exceeds 2.1 V, SN74ABT2244APWR requires OE pins (1OE, 2OE) to be tied to VCC through a pull-up resistor. The minimum value depends on the driver's current-sinking capability; typical designs use 4.7 kΩ to 10 kΩ. Without this, outputs may float or partially enable during power transitions.
Can SN74ABT2244APWR drive 50-pF loads reliably?
Yes - SN74ABT2244APWR switching characteristics (tPLH, tPHL) are specified with CL = 50 pF, confirming validated performance into standard logic loads. Its 25-Ω integrated series resistors dampen resonance, allowing stable operation even with board trace capacitance up to 50 pF without added termination components.
Is SN74ABT2244APWR pin-compatible with SN74ABT244APWR?
Yes - SN74ABT2244APWR and SN74ABT244APWR share identical TSSOP-20 (PW) pinout, electrical specifications, and functional behavior. TI documents them as functionally equivalent variants; the "2244" and "244" designations reflect historical catalog alignment, not functional divergence. They are interchangeable in PCB layouts.
What is the purpose of the 25-Ω series resistors on SN74ABT2244APWR outputs?
The 25-Ω series resistors integrated into each SN74ABT2244APWR output reduce signal overshoot and undershoot caused by transmission-line effects on PCB traces or cables. This eliminates the need for discrete 22–33 Ω surface-mount resistors, simplifying layout, lowering BOM cost, and improving signal fidelity in high-speed bus applications without sacrificing drive strength.
