- Octal 8-channel non-inverting buffer with 3-state outputs for bidirectional bus isolation and data bus driving in LVC-family systems
- Output enable control for all eight channels simultaneously, enabling efficient bus sharing and tri-state signal multiplexing
- 20-pin SOP package with LVC-family low-voltage operation supporting 3.3V and 5V digital bus interfacing
Applications
The SN74LVCZ244ANS is commonly used as a bus buffer and line driver in microcontroller and FPGA systems where multiple data lines need to be driven onto a shared bus with tri-state capability for bus arbitration. It is well suited for address bus buffering, memory expansion, and isolation between different PCB sections in industrial control systems and embedded computing boards. The 3-state outputs allow multiple devices to share the same bus lines without contention, supporting standard multiplexed bus architectures.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the function of the SN74LVCZ244ANS?
The SN74LVCZ244ANS is an octal non-inverting buffer and line driver with 3-state outputs, providing eight independent buffered signal channels. The 3-state output capability allows the device to be disabled to a high-impedance state, enabling multiple devices to share a common bus without signal contention.
How many channels does the SN74LVCZ244ANS have?
The SN74LVCZ244ANS has eight independent buffer channels (octal configuration), all controlled by a shared output enable signal. This makes it efficient for parallel data bus applications where all eight lines are typically enabled or disabled together as a group.
What package does the SN74LVCZ244ANS use?
The SN74LVCZ244ANS is available in a 20-pin Small Outline Package (SOP), which offers a compact surface-mount footprint suitable for modern PCB designs. The SOP package is widely used in digital logic buffer and driver applications in industrial and consumer electronics.
What supply voltage range is the SN74LVCZ244ANS compatible with?
As an LVC-family device, the SN74LVCZ244ANS supports low-voltage operation, typically from 1.65V to 5.5V. This wide supply voltage range makes it compatible with both legacy 5V TTL-level systems and modern 3.3V or lower logic-level microcontrollers and FPGAs.
What are typical applications for the SN74LVCZ244ANS?
Typical applications include address and data bus buffering in memory interface circuits, isolation between PCB subsystems with different drive strengths, FPGA I/O expansion, level translation in mixed-voltage designs, and tri-state multiplexing for shared bus architectures in embedded and industrial control systems.
