SN74HCT244PWR

Texas Instruments · Buffer/Driver/Transceiver · TSSOP-20

SN74HCT244PWR from Texas Instruments, in a TSSOP-20. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 1OE input Active-low output enable for bank 1 (buffers 1A1-1A4 → 1Y1-1Y4). When low, bank 1 outputs pass the A input data. When high, bank 1 outputs are placed in the high-impedance state. Must be tied to VCC through a pull-up for high-Z during power up/down.
2 1A1 input Bank 1 buffer input 1. TTL-compatible CMOS input; buffered non-inverting to 1Y1 when 1OE is low. VIH ≥ 2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V at VCC = 4.5-5.5 V; input current ≤ ±1 µA.
3 2Y4 tri_state Bank 2 buffer output 4. 3-state, non-inverting output driven by 2A4 when 2OE is low; high-impedance when 2OE is high. ±6 mA output drive at 5 V.
4 1A2 input Bank 1 buffer input 2. TTL-compatible CMOS input; buffered non-inverting to 1Y2 when 1OE is low.
5 2Y3 tri_state Bank 2 buffer output 3. 3-state, non-inverting output driven by 2A3 when 2OE is low; high-impedance when 2OE is high.
6 1A3 input Bank 1 buffer input 3. TTL-compatible CMOS input; buffered non-inverting to 1Y3 when 1OE is low.
7 2Y2 tri_state Bank 2 buffer output 2. 3-state, non-inverting output driven by 2A2 when 2OE is low; high-impedance when 2OE is high.
8 1A4 input Bank 1 buffer input 4. TTL-compatible CMOS input; buffered non-inverting to 1Y4 when 1OE is low.
9 2Y1 tri_state Bank 2 buffer output 1. 3-state, non-inverting output driven by 2A1 when 2OE is low; high-impedance when 2OE is high.
10 GND power_in Device ground reference (0 V).
11 2A1 input Bank 2 buffer input 1. TTL-compatible CMOS input; buffered non-inverting to 2Y1 when 2OE is low.
12 1Y4 tri_state Bank 1 buffer output 4. 3-state, non-inverting output driven by 1A4 when 1OE is low; high-impedance when 1OE is high.
13 2A2 input Bank 2 buffer input 2. TTL-compatible CMOS input; buffered non-inverting to 2Y2 when 2OE is low.
14 1Y3 tri_state Bank 1 buffer output 3. 3-state, non-inverting output driven by 1A3 when 1OE is low; high-impedance when 1OE is high.
15 2A3 input Bank 2 buffer input 3. TTL-compatible CMOS input; buffered non-inverting to 2Y3 when 2OE is low.
16 1Y2 tri_state Bank 1 buffer output 2. 3-state, non-inverting output driven by 1A2 when 1OE is low; high-impedance when 1OE is high.
17 2A4 input Bank 2 buffer input 4. TTL-compatible CMOS input; buffered non-inverting to 2Y4 when 2OE is low.
18 1Y1 tri_state Bank 1 buffer output 1. 3-state, non-inverting output driven by 1A1 when 1OE is low; high-impedance when 1OE is high.
19 2OE input Active-low output enable for bank 2 (buffers 2A1-2A4 → 2Y1-2Y4). When low, bank 2 outputs pass the A input data. When high, bank 2 outputs are placed in the high-impedance state.
20 VCC power_in Positive supply rail, 4.5 V to 5.5 V (recommended). Absolute max 7 V. Decouple locally to GND with a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor.

3D model downloads

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
sn74hct244pwr.step 267 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
sn74hct244pwr-etched.step 2.8 MB You want the part with SN74HCT244PWR already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 727 faces against 327 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.

Provenance
