8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The SNx4HCT244 device is organized as two 4-bit buffers and line drivers with separate output-enable (OE)
inputs. When OE is low, the device passes data from the A inputs to the Y outputs. When OE is high, the outputs
are in the high-impedance state. To ensure the high-impedance state during power up or power down, OE must
be tied to V
CC
through a pullup resistor; the minimum value of the resistor is determined by the current-sinking
capability of the driver.

8.3 Feature Description
The SN74HCT244 device can drive up to 15 LSTTL loads. This device has low power consumption of 80-µA I
CC
.
The SN74HCT244 also has 3 state outputs that allow the outputs to go to high impedance, low or high.
