Octal Bus Buffer

TC74ACT240P/F/FT Inverted, 3-State Outputs

TC74ACT244P/F/FT Non-Inverted, 3-State Outputs

The TC74ACT240 and 244 are advanced high speed CMOS OCTAL BUS BUFFERs fabricated with silicon gate and double-layer metal wiring C2 MOS technology. They achieve the high speed operation similar to equivalent Bipolar Schottky TTL while maintaining the CMOS low power dissipation.

The 74ACT240 is an inverting 3-state buffer while the 74ACT244 is non-inverting. Both devices have two active-low output enables. These devices are designed to be used in such applications as 3-state memory address drivers. All inputs are equipped with protection circuits against static

discharge or transient excess voltage.
