74LCX244 Low-Voltage Buffer/Line Driver with 5V Tolerant Inputs and Outputs
December 1996
74LCX244
Low-Voltage Buffer/Line Driver
with 5V Tolerant Inputs and Outputs
General Description
The LCX244 contains eight non-inverting buffers with
TRI-STATEÉoutputs. The device may be employed as a
memory address driver, clock driver and bus-oriented trans-
mitter/receiver. The LCX244 is designed for low voltage
(3.3V) VCC applications with capability of interfacing to a 5V
signal environment.
The LCX244 is fabricated with an advanced CMOS technol-
ogy to achieve high speed operation while maintaining
CMOS low power dissipation.
