Product Overview: CD74HC373E from Texas Instruments
The CD74HC373E is a high-speed CMOS Logic Octal Transparent Latch with 3-state outputs manufactured by Texas Instruments. This device is part of the HC family, which is well-known for its high noise immunity and low power consumption while maintaining speed comparable to LS-TTL logic. The CD74HC373E is designed for use in buffer storage, holding registers, data storage and transfer, and working as a multiplexer with its transparent latch feature.
Key Features
- Logic Type: Octal Transparent Latch
- Number of Channels: 8
- Output Type: 3-State
- IC Package Type: DIP, 20 Pin
- Operating Temperature: -55°C to +125°C
- Supply Voltage Range: 2V to 6V
