High–Performance Silicon–Gate CMOS
The MC54/74HCT244A is identical in pinout to the LS244. This device
may be used as a level converter for interfacing TTL or NMOS outputs to
High–Speed CMOS inputs. The HCT244A is an octal noninverting buffer
line driver line receiver designed to be used with 3–state memory address
drivers, clock drivers, and other bus–oriented systems. The device has
non–inverted outputs and two active–low output enables.
The HCT244A is the noninverting version of the HCT240. See also
HCT241.
• Output Drive Capability: 15 LSTTL Loads
• TTL NMOS–Compatible Input Levels
• Outputs Directly Interface to CMOS, NMOS, and TTL
• Operating Voltage Range: 4.5 to 5.5 V
• Low Input Current: 1 µA
• In Compliance with the Requirements Defined by JEDEC Standard
No. 7A
• Chip Complexity: 112 FETs or 28 Equivalent Gates

This device contains protection
circuitry to guard against damage
due to high static voltages or electric
fields. However, precautions must
be taken to avoid applications of any
voltage higher than maximum rated
voltages to this high–impedance circuit. For proper operation, Vin and
V
out
should be constrained to the
range GND v (Vin or V
out
) v VCC.
Unused inputs must always be
tied to an appropriate logic voltage
level (e.g., either GND or VCC).
Unused outputs must be left open.
