Hello experts!

What is 74HCT244 (Octal buffer/line driver)?
What does it do?
How does it work?
How does it produce its output?

Thank you
 

Hi,

What is not clear?
Did you read the datasheet?

Octal = eight times
buffer = (current) amplifier
line driver = it has enough power to drive long wires/traces

HCT = High speed Cmos with Ttl level input; VCC = 5V, ViL = 0.8V, ViH=2V (about)

datasheet gives the most reliable and precise information.

Good luck

This is what I already know.

By the way, is this a current amplifier? How ?
 

Hi,

It can deliver more more current at it's output than it consumes at it's input.
This power is supplied by the Vcc and Gnd pins.

Bye
