Product details
Overview
SN74AHCT16244DGVR from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit noninverting 3-state buffer/driver in a 48-pin TVSOP package, designed for memory address, clock, and bus interface applications. It features four independent 4-bit sections with active-low output-enable (OE) inputs, TTL-compatible inputs (VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V), 5-V supply operation, and ±25 mA output drive capability. Used in telecom infrastructure and industrial control systems requiring level translation from 3.3 V to 5 V.
For engineers reviewing the SN74AHCT16244DGVR datasheet, SN74AHCT16244DGVR pinout, SN74AHCT16244DGVR application, or SN74AHCT16244DGVR equivalent, key selection criteria include 3-state bus driving capability, input voltage compatibility with legacy TTL logic, thermal performance at –40°C to 125°C, and TVSOP-48 footprint constraints for high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The SN74AHCT16244DGVR implements four independent 4-bit noninverting buffers, each with dedicated active-low OE control (1OE–4OE). All outputs are 3-state capable and exhibit symmetrical drive strength (IOH = –8 mA, IOL = 8 mA at VCC = 4.5 V).
Its EPIC™ CMOS process enables TTL-voltage compatibility while maintaining CMOS power efficiency. Distributed VCC/GND pins minimize switching noise, and flow-through pin architecture supports optimized signal routing-critical for timing-sensitive bus drivers in telecom and industrial embedded systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures stable operation across industrial 5-V rails with ±10% tolerance |
| Input Thresholds | VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V - guarantees reliable interfacing with 3.3-V and TTL logic families |
| Output Drive | ±25 mA per output - sufficient for driving multiple CMOS loads or short traces without external buffering |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 10.5 ns @ CL = 15 pF - supports >50 MHz bus operation in low-noise environments |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for extended industrial and automotive under-hood applications |
| ESD Rating | 2000 V HBM - meets MIL-STD-883 requirements for robust handling in manufacturing |
| Power Dissipation | Cpd = 8.2 pF - enables ultra-low dynamic power in high-frequency enable/disable cycling |
Pinout & Package
SN74AHCT16244DGVR uses a 48-pin Thin Very Small Outline Package (TVSOP, DGV), measuring 9.70 mm × 4.40 mm with 0.4 mm pitch. The package features gull-wing leads, exposed thermal pad (not electrically connected), and pin 1 quadrant marking per JEDEC MO-153.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE–4OE | Active-low output enable | Each controls one 4-bit section; tied high via pullup for safe power-up high-Z state |
| 1A1–4A4 | Buffer input | 16 total TTL-compatible inputs; unused inputs must be tied to VCC or GND |
| 1Y1–4Y4 | Noninverting 3-state output | 16 buffered outputs; high-Z when corresponding OE is high |
| VCC (Pins 7,18,31,42) | Power supply | Distributed VCC pins reduce simultaneous switching noise and improve decoupling |
| GND (Pins 4,10,15,21,28,34,39,45) | Ground reference | Eight GND pins provide low-inductance return paths for all output sections |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL-voltage compatible inputs | Accepts 3.3-V logic levels directly-enables seamless 3.3 V → 5 V level translation without external resistors |
| Flow-through pin architecture | Input and output pins aligned on opposite sides-minimizes trace crossovers and improves signal integrity in dense layouts |
| Distributed VCC/GND pins | Four VCC and eight GND pins-reduces ground bounce and improves noise immunity during fast switching |
| Slow edge-rate control | Intentionally limited dV/dt-suppresses output ringing and EMI in unterminated transmission lines |
| Latch-up immunity | >250 mA per JESD17-ensures robustness against transient overcurrent events in shared-bus systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit 3-state buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AHCT16244DGGR | TSSOP-48 package (12.5 mm × 6.1 mm); 10.7°C/W higher RθJA than DGVR | Suitable for less thermally constrained boards where larger footprint is acceptable | Choose DGGR if board space allows and thermal margin exceeds 15°C |
| SN74LVC16244ADGVR | Lower VCC range (1.65–3.6 V); 3.3-V only; no TTL input compatibility | Not usable in 5-V systems or for 3.3 V → 5 V translation | Select only for pure 3.3-V domains requiring lower static current (ICC = 10 µA max) |
Compared with SN74AHCT16244DGVR, the DGGR offers identical logic function but requires more PCB area and delivers slightly worse thermal performance, while the LVC16244A operates exclusively at 3.3 V and cannot replace it in mixed-voltage or TTL-interfaced designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for SN74AHCT16244DGVR?
The SN74AHCT16244DGVR is fully specified from –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature. This extended range is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108 and supported by thermal metrics including RθJA = 83.5°C/W (TVSOP), enabling reliable deployment in industrial enclosures and telecom base stations without derating.
Does SN74AHCT16244DGVR support 3.3-V input logic levels?
Yes, SN74AHCT16244DGVR accepts 3.3-V logic inputs reliably: its VIH threshold is 2.0 V minimum and VIL is 0.8 V maximum at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V. This makes SN74AHCT16244DGVR ideal for translating signals from 3.3-V FPGAs or MCUs to 5-V buses without level-shifters.
How should unused inputs be handled on SN74AHCT16244DGVR?
All unused inputs on SN74AHCT16244DGVR must be tied to either VCC or GND-floating inputs cause undefined output states and increased ICC. TI recommends tying unused OE inputs to VCC via a pullup resistor (e.g., 10 kΩ) to ensure high-impedance outputs at power-up, preventing bus contention.
What is the recommended bypass capacitor configuration for SN74AHCT16244DGVR?
TI specifies one 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor per VCC pin (pins 7, 18, 31, 42), placed as close as possible to each pin. For optimal high-frequency noise suppression, pair each 0.1-μF cap with a 1-μF bulk capacitor near the device's center. Avoid shared vias between VCC and GND connections to maintain low-inductance paths.
Is SN74AHCT16244DGVR pin-compatible with SN74AHCT16244DLR?
Yes, SN74AHCT16244DGVR (TVSOP-48) and SN74AHCT16244DLR (SSOP-48) share identical pinout, function mapping, and logic behavior per TI's SCLS334J datasheet. However, their footprints differ: DGV is 9.7 mm × 4.4 mm (0.4 mm pitch), DL is 15.8 mm × 7.5 mm (0.635 mm pitch)-requiring separate PCB layouts despite functional equivalence.
