ON Semiconductor MC74LVX373DTR2 Octal Transparent Latch

The ON Semiconductor MC74LVX373DTR2 is a high-performance CMOS octal transparent latch with 3-state outputs designed for use in applications requiring high-speed and low power consumption. This device is part of the LVX family, which operates at a voltage range of 2.7V to 3.6V, making it suitable for interfacing with 3.3V logic levels while providing 5V tolerant inputs.

The MC74LVX373DTR2 features eight latches with three-state outputs for bus-oriented applications. Each latch is D-type, meaning it captures the state of the data input on a rising-edge clock signal and holds that state until the next rising edge. The transparent nature of the latches allows data to flow directly through when the latch-enable (LE) input is high, and data is stored when LE is taken low.

With a broad operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, this device is suitable for various challenging environments. The latch is packaged in a TSSOP-20 (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package) which is ideal for space-constrained applications due to its small footprint.

Key features of the MC74LVX373DTR2 include:

• High-Speed Operation: The device is capable of functioning at high speeds, making it suitable for fast data acquisition and processing tasks.
• Low Power Consumption: Its CMOS technology ensures low power dissipation, an essential feature for battery-operated and power-sensitive designs.
• 5V Tolerant Inputs: Inputs can tolerate 5V signals without damage, allowing for interface flexibility with different logic levels.
• 3-State Outputs: The outputs can be put into a high-impedance state, effectively disconnecting them from the bus, which is useful for bus arbitration and shared data lines.
• Multiple Package Options: Available in various packages, the TSSOP-20 option offers a compact solution for PCB layout.

Applications for the MC74LVX373DTR2 are diverse and include data storage, communication systems, data multiplexing, and any system requiring a temporary storage of data. Its high-speed and low-power characteristics, combined with robust environmental tolerance, make it an excellent choice for modern digital circuit designs.

ON Semiconductor's commitment to quality ensures that the MC74LVX373DTR2 meets stringent standards for performance and reliability, making it a trustworthy component for your next project.
