October 1995
74VHC244 #74VHCT244
Octal Buffer/Line Driver with TRI-STATEÉOutputs
General Description
The ’VHC/’VHCT244 is an advanced high speed CMOS oc-
tal bus buffer fabricated with silicon gate C2MOS technolo-
gy. It achieves high speed operation similar to equivalent
Bipolar Schottky TTL while maintaining the CMOS low pow-
er dissipation. The ’VHC/’VHCT244 is a non-inverting
TRI-STATE buffer having two active-low output enables.
These devices are designed to be used as TRI-STATE
memory address drivers, clock drivers, and bus oriented
transmitter/receivers.
An input protection circuit ensures that 0V7V can be ap-
plied to the input pins without regard to the supply voltage.
This device can be used to interface 5V to 3V systems and
two supply systems such as battery back up. This circuit
prevents device destruction due to mismatched supply and
input voltages.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are values beyond
which the device may be damaged or have its useful life
impaired. The databook specifications should be met, with-
out exception, to ensure that the system design is reliable
over its power supply, temperature, and output/input load-
ing variables. National does not recommend operation out-
side databook specifications.
