74ACT11373DW

IC, LOGIC, OCT D-TYPE LATCH, 24SOIC.

The 74ACT11373DW is an Octal Transparent D-type Latch with 3-state outputs. It is designed specifically for driving highly-capacitive or relatively low-impedance loads. It is particularly suitable for implementing buffer registers, I/O ports, bidirectional bus drivers and working registers. The eight latches of the 74ACT11373 are transparent D-type latches. While the LE input is high, the Q outputs follow the data (D) inputs. When the enable is taken low, the Q outputs are latched at the levels that were set up at the D inputs. A buffered OE\ input can be used to place the eight outputs in either a normal logic state (high or low logic levels) or a high-impedance state. In the high-impedance state, the outputs neither load nor drive the bus lines significantly. The high-impendence third state and increased drive provide the capability to drive the bus lines in a bus-organized system without need for interface or pull-up components.
