DM74AS240 • DM74AS244
3-STATE Bus Driver/Receiver
General Description
This family of Advance Schottky 3-STATE Bus circuits are
designed to provide either bidirectional or unidirectional
buffer interface in Memory, Microprocessor, and Communi-
cation Systems. The output characteristics of the circuits
have low impedance sufficient to drive terminated trans-
mission lines down to 133Ω. The input characteristics of
the circuits likewise have a high impedance so it will not
significantly load the transmission line. The package con-
tains eight 3-STATE buffers organized with four buffers
having a common 3-STATE enable gate. The DM74AS240
and DM74AS244 are eight wide in a 20 pin package, and
may be used as a 4 wide bidirectional or eight wide unidi-
rectional. The buffer selection includes inverting and non-
inverting, with enable or disable 3-STATE control.

Note 1:
The “Absolute Maximum Ratings” are those values beyond which
the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. The device should not be
operated at these limits. The parametric values defined in the Electrical
Characteristics tables are not guaranteed at the absolute maximum ratings.
The “Recommended Operating Conditions” table will define the conditions
for actual device operation.
