The 74AVC16244 is a 16-bit non-inverting buffer/line driver with 3-state outputs. This device can be used as four 4-bit buffers, two 8-bit buffers or one 16-bit buffer. The 3‑state outputs are controlled by the output enable inputs nOE. A HIGH level on input nOE causes the outputs to assume a high-impedance OFF-state. The 74AVC16244 is designed to have an extremely fast propagation delay and a minimum amount of power consumption. To ensure the high-impedance output state during power-up or power-down, input nOE should be tied to VCC through a pull-up resistor (Live Insertion). A dynamic controlled output (DCO) circuitry is implemented to support termination line drive during transient.
