Please note: As part of the Fairchild Semiconductor integration, some of the Fairchild orderable part numbers
will need to change in order to meet ON Semiconductor’s system requirements. Since the ON Semiconductor
product management systems do not have the ability to manage part nomenclature that utilizes an underscore
(_), the underscore (_) in the Fairchild part numbers will be changed to a dash (-). This document may contain
device numbers with an underscore (_). Please check the ON Semiconductor website to verify the updated
device numbers. The most current and up-to-date ordering information can be found at www.onsemi.com. Please
email any questions regarding the system integration to Fairchild_questions@onsemi.com.

74VHC244 Octal Buffer/Line Driver with 3-STATE Outputs
74VHC244
Octal Buffer/Line Driver with 3-STATE Outputs
General Descript ion
The VHC 244 is an advanced hi gh speed CMOS octa l bus
buffer fabricated with silicon gate CMOS technology. It
achieves high speed operation similar to equivalent Bipolar
Schottky TTL while maintain ing the CMOS low power dissi-
pation. The VHC244 is a non-inverting 3-STA TE buffer hav-
ing two active-LOW output enables. These devices are
designe d to be used as 3-STATE memory addre ss drivers,
clock drivers, and bus oriented transmitter/receivers.
An input protection circuit ensures that 0V to 7V can be
applied to the input pins without regard to the supply volt-
age. This device can be used to interface 5V to 3V systems
and two supp ly systems such as battery back up. This cir-
cuit preven ts device destruc tion du e to mismatch ed supply
and input voltages.

Conditions (Note 2)
Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are values beyond which the device
may be damaged or have its useful life impaired. The databook specifica-
tions should be met, without exception, to ensure that the system design is
reliable over its power supply, temperature, and output/input loading vari-
ables. Fairchild does not recommend operation outside databook specifica-
tions.
