The SN74HCT244N is a high-speed CMOS octal buffer/line driver from Texas Instruments. It is an 8-bit device that operates from a single power supply, such as 3V to 15V. It is used for driving bus lines in digital, clock, and address applications. It has an output current up to 24mA section and output voltage range of 0 to VCC. The SN74HCT244N also has three different enable inputs, which when enabled, enable all eight outputs. The SN74HCT244N is designed to be used in applications such as active pull-up and pull-down, address and data buses, glue logic, and more. The SN74HCT244N is designed to meet all EIA/TIA-485 and IEEE 802.3 standards.
