Texas Instruments 20-SOIC SN74HCT244DWE4

The SN74HCT244DWE4 is a high-speed CMOS device from Texas Instruments, serving as an 8-bit buffer and line driver with three-state outputs. It consists of two independent 4-bit buffers, each controlled by separate output enable (OE) inputs. When OE is low, the device transparently transmits data from its A inputs to Y outputs; when OE is high, the outputs enter a high-impedance state. Packaged in a SOIC-20-300mil form factor, it's suitable for bus-oriented applications requiring increased performance and density, such as memory address drivers and clock distribution.
