The 74LVC373ADB is a high-performance, octal transparent D-type latch with 3-state outputs from NXP Semiconductors. This integrated circuit is part of the LVC (Low-Voltage CMOS) family, which is designed to operate at lower voltages with better power efficiency while maintaining compatibility with standard 5V systems. The 74LVC373ADB is particularly suitable for implementing buffer registers, I/O ports, bidirectional bus drivers, and working memory in a wide range of applications.

Key Features

• Logic Type: Octal D-type transparent latch
• Output Type: 3-state
• Operating Voltage: 1.2V to 3.6V, with 5V tolerant inputs
• High-Speed Performance: Typically 5.2 ns at 3.3V
• Bus Hold Feature: Retains the inputs' last state whenever the input goes to high impedance, which prevents floating inputs and reduces the need for pull-up/down resistors.
• Low Power Consumption: Reduces power usage and heat generation, making it ideal for power-sensitive applications.
• Compatibility: Input and output levels are compatible with 5V TTL logic levels.
• Latch-up Performance: Exceeds 100 mA per JESD 78, Class II.
• ESD Protection: HBM JESD22-A114E exceeds 2000V and MM JESD22-A115-A exceeds 200V.
• Package: DB (SSOP20)
