Product details
Overview
SN74LVT16244BDGVR from Texas Instruments is a 3.3-V ABT 16-bit buffer/driver with 3-state outputs in a 48-pin TVSOP (DGV) package. It provides true noninverting outputs, four independent 4-bit sections with active-low output-enable inputs (1OE–4OE), and supports mixed-mode operation with 5-V-tolerant inputs while powered at VCC = 2.7–3.6 V. It is used in bus interface, memory address driving, and level-shifting applications in industrial control backplanes.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVT16244BDGVR datasheet, SN74LVT16244BDGVR pinout, SN74LVT16244BDGVR application, or SN74LVT16244BDGVR equivalent, key selection considerations include its 3.3-V ABT process enabling low static power, Ioff and power-up 3-state for hot insertion, ±100 µA off-state leakage, and guaranteed 48 mA low-level output drive at VCC = 2.7 V.
Technical Context
The SN74LVT16244BDGVR implements four independent 4-bit noninverting buffers, each with dedicated active-low output-enable (OE) control. Its Advanced BiCMOS Technology (ABT) enables TTL-compatible 5-V input tolerance while operating from a 2.7–3.6-V supply, supporting mixed-voltage system interfacing without external level shifters.
It features Ioff circuitry that disables outputs when VCC = 0 V to prevent current backflow during hot insertion, and power-up 3-state logic that holds outputs high-impedance during power ramping. Absolute maximum ratings include VI up to 7 V and VO up to 7 V in high-Z state, ensuring robustness in noisy or undervoltage conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - Enables stable operation across unregulated battery rails down to 2.7 V. |
| IOL (min) | 48 mA at VCC = 2.7 V - Drives heavy capacitive loads or multiple TTL inputs without signal degradation. |
| VIH / VIL | 2.0 V / 0.8 V - Compatible with standard 5-V TTL logic thresholds despite 3.3-V supply. |
| tPLH / tPHL (max) | 4.6 ns at VCC = 2.7 V - Supports high-speed bus buffering up to ~200 MHz data rates under worst-case voltage/temperature. |
| Ioff (max) | ±100 µA at VCC = 0 V - Prevents damaging back-current during live board insertion or partial power-down. |

Pinout & Package
SN74LVT16244BDGVR uses a 48-pin Thin Very Small Outline Package (TVSOP, DGV), JEDEC MO-153 compliant, with 0.4 mm pitch, 12.6 mm × 6.1 mm body size, and max height of 1.2 mm - optimized for space-constrained industrial and telecom modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE–4OE | Active-low output-enable control inputs | Each independently gates one 4-bit buffer section; tied high via pullup to ensure Hi-Z on power-up if VCC < 1.5 V. |
| 1A1–4A4 | Data inputs (16 total) | True noninverting inputs; tolerate 0–5.5 V regardless of VCC, enabling direct connection to 5-V buses. |
| 1Y1–4Y4 | Buffered outputs (16 total) | 3-state outputs with symmetrical drive strength; VOL ≤ 0.5 V at 48 mA ensures solid TTL LOW recognition. |
| VCC, GND | Power and ground terminals | Four VCC and four GND pins distributed across package to minimize switching noise and improve PSRR. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Mixed-mode signal operation | 5-V-tolerant inputs with 3.3-V VCC eliminates need for discrete level translators in 3.3/5-V hybrid systems. |
| Hot-insertion support | Ioff + power-up 3-state prevents bus contention and backdrive damage during live card replacement in telecom or server backplanes. |
| Low ground bounce | VOLP < 0.8 V at VCC = 3.3 V ensures signal integrity during simultaneous output switching in dense PCB layouts. |
| Wide supply range | Operates down to 2.7 V allows direct use with single-cell Li-ion or regulated 3.3-V supplies without brownout reset circuitry. |
| Latch-up immunity | >100 mA per JESD 78 Class II guarantees robustness against transient overvoltage events in industrial environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit buffer/driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC16244ADGGR | Lower drive (24 mA IOL), 1.65–3.6 V VCC range, no 5-V-tolerant inputs | Suitable only for pure 3.3-V or lower-voltage systems; cannot interface directly to 5-V buses | Select when cost and power are prioritized over mixed-voltage compatibility and higher drive strength. |
| 74ALVC16244DGGR | Same 5-V-tolerant inputs, but 1.65–3.6 V VCC; slightly slower (tPLH max 5.2 ns at 2.7 V) | Compatible in 5-V interface role but less tolerant of battery droop below 2.7 V | Choose when footprint compatibility is required and system VCC remains ≥2.7 V with tighter regulation. |
Compared with SN74LVC16244ADGGR and 74ALVC16244DGGR, the SN74LVT16244BDGVR uniquely delivers 48 mA drive at 2.7 V with full 5-V input tolerance - making it the only option among the three qualified for unregulated 3.3-V rail operation in hot-swap and legacy bus interfacing.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for SN74LVT16244BDGVR?
The SN74LVT16244BDGVR supports an input voltage range of –0.5 V to 7 V, allowing direct connection to 5-V logic buses while powered from a 3.3-V supply. This 5-V tolerance is maintained across the full recommended operating temperature range (–40°C to 85°C) and does not require external clamping circuitry.
Does SN74LVT16244BDGVR support hot insertion, and how is it implemented?
Yes, SN74LVT16244BDGVR supports hot insertion via two integrated features: Ioff circuitry disables outputs when VCC = 0 V to block reverse current, and power-up 3-state logic forces outputs into high-impedance during VCC ramp-up. Both functions are inherent to the ABT process and require no external components to meet PICMG or IEEE 1101.10 compliance.
What is the output drive capability of SN74LVT16244BDGVR at minimum supply voltage?
At VCC = 2.7 V, SN74LVT16244BDGVR guarantees 48 mA low-level output current (IOL) and 24 mA high-level output current (IOH), enabling reliable driving of multiple TTL loads or 50-pF transmission lines without signal degradation - a key advantage over LVC-series alternatives at low VCC.
Can SN74LVT16244BDGVR be used in systems with undervoltage lockout below 2.7 V?
Yes - SN74LVT16244BDGVR remains functional down to VCC = 2.7 V, and enters a high-impedance state when VCC drops below 1.5 V. To ensure predictable Hi-Z behavior above 1.5 V, OE inputs must be pulled up to VCC; the minimum pullup resistor value depends on the driver's sink capability, typically ≤10 kΩ for robust margin.
What package variant and marking correspond to SN74LVT16244BDGVR?
SN74LVT16244BDGVR is supplied in a 48-pin TVSOP (DGV) package, JEDEC MO-153 compliant, with dimensions 12.6 mm × 6.1 mm × 1.2 mm max. Its top-side marking is "VD244B", and it ships in tape-and-reel format (2000 units per reel) with MSL Level-1 rating and NIPDAU lead finish.
