Texas Instruments 20-SOIC CD74HC244M96G4

The CD74HC244M96G4 is a high-speed CMOS logic device from Texas Instruments (TI) that functions as an octal buffer/line driver with three-state outputs. It's part of the 74HC/HCT series, known for its low power consumption and compatibility with both TTL and CMOS levels. This particular component provides eight individual channels for buffering or driving signals, allowing each output to be independently enabled or disabled in a high-impedance state. The 'G4' package code denotes a specific surface-mount technology (SMT) packaging variant, likely referring to a small-outline integrated circuit (SOIC) or similar package type.
