The PI74VCX16373AEX is a high-performance, low-voltage 16-Bit D-Type Latch with 5V tolerant inputs and outputs, manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. This integrated circuit is part of the VCX family, designed to provide optimal power and speed characteristics while maintaining the flexibility to interface with 5V signals.

Key Features

• Low Voltage Operation: Operates at 2.3V to 3.6V, making it suitable for low-power applications and compatible with modern low-voltage systems.
• 5V Tolerant I/O: Inputs and outputs can tolerate up to 5V, even when the device is powered down, providing greater interface flexibility with legacy systems.
• High-Speed Operation: Possesses fast propagation delays and output transition times, which is essential for high-speed data processing and communication systems.
• Bus-Hold Data Inputs: Eliminates the need for external pull-up or pull-down resistors, simplifying board design and reducing component count.
• Power-Off High-Impedance State: The outputs enter a high-impedance state when the device is powered down, preventing potential damage from back-driving and reducing power consumption.
• Flow-Through Architecture: Optimizes the PCB layout with easier routing and reduced noise, thanks to its organized pin configuration.
