Product details
Overview
SN74LV244AMDWREP from Texas Instruments is an octal 3-state buffer/driver IC designed for bus interface and memory address driving in industrial and extended-temperature systems. It operates from 2 V to 5.5 V, delivers propagation delay as low as 4.9 ns at 5 V, supports partial-power-down via Ioff, and features dual independent output-enable (OE) controls for two 4-bit channels.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LV244AMDWREP datasheet, SN74LV244AMDWREP pinout, SN74LV244AMDWREP application, or SN74LV244AMDWREP equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specs, SOIC-20 package details, real-world use cases in bus buffering and clock distribution, and validated alternative parts for design continuity.
Technical Context
The SN74LV244AMDWREP implements noninverting 3-state logic with separate 1OE and 2OE inputs enabling independent control of two 4-bit data paths (1A1–1A4 → 1Y1–1Y4 and 2A1–2A4 → 2Y1–2Y4). Its Ioff circuitry ensures no backflow current during partial power-down, meeting JESD 78 latch-up immunity (>250 mA).
It supports mixed-mode voltage operation across all ports, allowing 3.3-V inputs to drive 5-V outputs and vice versa within VCC limits. Dynamic noise parameters - including VOLP < 0.8 V and VOHV > 2.3 V at 3.3 V - are characterized for signal integrity in high-speed digital buses.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2 V to 5.5 V - enables interoperability across 2.5-V, 3.3-V, and 5-V logic domains without level shifters. |
| Max tpd | 4.9 ns at 5 V - ensures sub-5-ns timing margin for 100-MHz+ bus cycles in memory and address drivers. |
| Ioff | 5 µA max - guarantees safe isolation during hot-insertion or partial system power-down without external blocking diodes. |
| Output Drive | ±16 mA at 4.5–5.5 V - sufficient to drive 50-pF loads over 10-cm PCB traces while maintaining TTL/CMOS-compatible VOH/VOL. |
| Operating Temp | –55°C to +125°C - qualified per JEDEC HAST, temperature cycle, and autoclave testing for aerospace, defense, and downhole applications. |
| ESD Rating | 2000-V HBM, 200-V MM, 1000-V CDM - exceeds standard industrial requirements, reducing need for external protection on I/O lines. |
Pinout & Package
SN74LV244AMDWREP uses a 20-pin SOIC (DW) package with 1.27-mm pitch, 7.6-mm body width, and 2.65-mm max height - compatible with standard surface-mount assembly and IPC-7351 land patterns.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE, 2OE | Active-low output enable | Independent control of Group 1 (pins 2–5 → 18–15) and Group 2 (pins 19–16 → 13–10); must be pulled up for power-up high-Z safety. |
| 1A1–1A4, 2A1–2A4 | Data inputs | Noninverting inputs for respective 4-bit channels; accept VIH ≥ 0.7×VCC and VIL ≤ 0.3×VCC across full VCC range. |
| 1Y1–1Y4, 2Y1–2Y4 | 3-state outputs | Buffered, noninverting outputs; enter high-impedance state when OE = high; support bus sharing without contention. |
| VCC (Pin 11), GND (Pin 10) | Power supply | Single-supply operation; decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm of pin 11 to suppress switching noise and ground bounce. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Extended temperature qualification | JEDEC-compliant reliability testing (HAST, temp cycle, autoclave) confirms stable operation from –55°C to +125°C for mission-critical deployments. |
| Mixed-mode voltage interface | Allows 3.3-V microcontroller GPIOs to safely drive 5-V bus lines - eliminating discrete level translators in mixed-voltage systems. |
| Controlled ground bounce (VOLP) | Typical <0.8 V at 3.3 V - reduces false triggering on adjacent CMOS inputs during simultaneous output switching. |
| Output undershoot suppression (VOHV) | Typical >2.3 V at 3.3 V - prevents negative undershoot from violating input thresholds of downstream receivers. |
| Low dynamic power dissipation | Cpd = 14 pF at 3.3 V - minimizes switching current and heat generation in high-density PCB layouts with multiple buffers. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Backplane Interface | Avionics Data Bus Isolation |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC244APWREP | Lower VCC min (1.65 V), higher speed (tpd = 3.9 ns @ 3.3 V), but rated only to 105°C. | Suitable for commercial/industrial systems below 105°C; not qualified for extended-temp aerospace or oilfield use. | Select when operating temperature stays ≤105°C and lower supply voltage (1.65–3.6 V) is required. |
| SN74LVTH244MDWREP | Higher drive (±32 mA), TTL-compatible inputs, but no Ioff and limited to –40°C to +85°C. | Used where legacy TTL signaling or stronger fanout is needed, but lacks partial-power-down capability. | Select only if interfacing with 5-V TTL logic and thermal range is constrained to commercial grade. |
Compared with SN74LV244AMDWREP, SN74LVC244APWREP offers faster speed and lower voltage support but sacrifices extended-temperature reliability, while SN74LVTH244MDWREP provides greater drive strength and TTL compatibility at the cost of Ioff and wide-temp qualification - making SN74LV244AMDWREP the sole choice for harsh-environment 3-state buffering with power-down safety.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for SN74LV244AMDWREP?
The SN74LV244AMDWREP is fully specified from –55°C to +125°C and qualified per JEDEC standards including HAST, temperature cycling, and autoclave testing. This makes SN74LV244AMDWREP suitable for aerospace, defense, and oilfield applications where extreme thermal environments are encountered.
Does SN74LV244AMDWREP support partial-power-down functionality?
Yes, SN74LV244AMDWREP includes Ioff circuitry that disables outputs and limits off-state current to 5 µA maximum when VCC = 0 V. This feature prevents damaging current backflow during hot-swap or staged power sequencing - a critical capability confirmed in the device's Electrical Characteristics table and Functional Description section.
What is the typical propagation delay of SN74LV244AMDWREP at 5 V?
The typical propagation delay (tpd) of SN74LV244AMDWREP is 6.5 ns at 5 V, with a guaranteed maximum of 8.5 ns under recommended conditions (VCC = 5 V ± 0.5 V, TA = 25°C, CL = 50 pF). This value is explicitly listed in the Switching Characteristics table for the A→Y path.
Can SN74LV244AMDWREP interface between 3.3-V and 5-V logic domains?
Yes, SN74LV244AMDWREP supports mixed-mode voltage operation: its inputs tolerate 0–5.5 V regardless of VCC, and outputs swing rail-to-rail within VCC. When powered at 5 V, it accepts 3.3-V inputs and drives 5-V outputs; when powered at 3.3 V, it drives 3.3-V outputs compatible with 5-V-tolerant receivers - all without external level shifters.
What package type is used for SN74LV244AMDWREP?
SN74LV244AMDWREP uses a 20-pin SOIC (DW) package with 1.27-mm lead pitch, 7.6-mm body width, and 2.65-mm maximum height. The DW package is documented in TI's SC package database and matches the mechanical drawing DW0020A, including land pattern and stencil recommendations.
