Functional Description
• Octal Bus Buffer
74HCT240D: INVERTED, 3-STATE OUTPUTS
74HCT244D: NON-INVERTED, 3-STATE OUTPUTS

General
The 74HCT240D, and 74HCT244D are high speed CMOS OCTAL BUS BUFFERs fabricated with silicon gate
C2MOS technology.
They achieve the high speed operation similar to equivalent LSTTL while maintaining the CMOS low power
dissipation.
Their inputs are compatible with TTL, NMOS, and CMOS output voltage levels. The 74HCT240D is an inverting
3-state buffer having two active-low output enables. The 74HCT244D is non-inverting 3-state buffer the HCT244A
has two active-low output enables.
These devices are designed to be used with 3-state memory address drivers, etc.
All inputs are equipped with protection circuits against static discharge or transient excess voltage.

Features
