DESCRIPTION:
The LVCH244A octal buffer/driver is built using advanced dual metal CMOS technology. This device is organized as two 4-bit line drivers with separate output-enable (OE) inputs. When OE is low, the device passes data from the A inputs to the Y outputs. When OE is high, the outputs are in the high-impedance state.

FEATURES:
• 0.5 MICRON CMOS Technology
• ESD > 2000V per MIL-STD-883, Method 3015; > 200V using machine model (C = 200pF, R = 0)
• VCC = 3.3V ± 0.3V, Normal Range
• VCC = 2.7V to 3.6V, Extended Range
• CMOS power levels (0.4µ W typ. static)
• Rail-to-rail output swing for increased noise margin
• All inputs, outputs, and I/O are 5V tolerant
• Supports hot insertion
• Available in SOIC, SSOP, QSOP, and TSSOP packages

DRIVE FEATURES:
• High Output Drivers: ±24mA
• Reduced system switching noise

APPLICATIONS:
• 5V and 3.3V mixed voltage systems
• Data communication and telecommunication systems
