Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 74HCT241DB,112 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Logic Type: Buffer, Non-Inverting
• Number of Elements: 2
• Number of Bits per Element: 4
• Output Type: 3-State
• Current - Output High, Low: 6mA, 6mA
• Voltage - Supply: 4.5V ~ 5.5V
• Package / Case: 20-SSOP (0.209", 5.30mm Width)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)

The SN74HCT244DBR from Texas Instruments meets all these criteria and qualifies as a direct functional equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SN74HCT244DBR is a direct functional substitute for the 74HCT241DB,112. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications.

The primary distinction is product status: the 74HCT241DB,112 is obsolete, while the SN74HCT244DBR is active. The SN74HCT244DBR offers superior long-term availability and supply chain stability. The operating temperature range of the SN74HCT244DBR (-40°C ~ 85°C) is narrower than the original part (-40°C ~ 125°C); applications requiring operation above 85°C must evaluate thermal requirements independently.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SN74HCT244DBR replace the 74HCT241DB,112 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical logic type, element count, bit configuration, output type, current ratings, supply voltage range, package type, and mounting method. The SN74HCT244DBR is a direct functional equivalent.

Q: What is the difference in operating temperature range?

A: The 74HCT241DB,112 operates from -40°C to 125°C, while the SN74HCT244DBR operates from -40°C to 85°C. Applications requiring operation above 85°C must confirm thermal compatibility with the SN74HCT244DBR specifications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 74HCT241DB,112 and SN74HCT244DBR are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

Q: What packaging options are available for the SN74HCT244DBR?

A: The SN74HCT244DBR is available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® packaging formats, both in the 20-SSOP package configuration.

Q: Why is the 74HCT241DB,112 marked as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc. The SN74HCT244DBR from Texas Instruments provides continued access to equivalent functionality with active production and supply chain support.
