Overview
The 74LVC2244APW/AUJ, produced by NXP USA Inc., is an 8-bit buffer/line driver with 3-state outputs. This device can be utilized as two 4-bit buffers or as a single 8-bit buffer, making it versatile for various digital logic applications. It features two output enables (1OE and 2OE), each controlling four of the 3-state outputs. A HIGH on nOE causes the outputs to assume a high-impedance OFF-state, which is useful in managing output states efficiently.
The device is designed to operate in mixed 3.3 V and 5 V environments, with inputs that can be driven from either voltage level. It also includes Schmitt-trigger action at all inputs, enhancing tolerance to slower input rise and fall times.
