drivers, and bus-oriented receivers and transmitters. With the ′ALS240A, ′ALS241C, ′AS240A, and ′AS241A, these devices provide the SN54ALS244C, SN54AS244A FK PACKAGE
choice of selected combinations of inverting (TOP VIEW)
outputs, symmetrical active-low output-enable (OE) inputs, and complementary OE and OE inputs.
The -1 version of SN74ALS244C is identical to the
standard version, except that the recommended
maximum IOL for the -1 version is 48 m A. There is
no -1 version of the SN54ALS244C.
The SN54ALS244C and SN54AS244A are characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of –55°C to 125°C. The
SN74ALS244C and SN74AS244A are 2Y 2Y
characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C. 1A
