Product Overview: SN74F2373N by Texas Instruments

The SN74F2373N is a high-performance integrated circuit designed and manufactured by Texas Instruments (TI), a leader in semiconductor solutions. This device is part of TI's extensive SN74 family, known for its robustness and reliability in a wide range of applications.

Key Features

• Logic Type: Octal Transparent D-Type Latch
• Package: PDIP-20 (Plastic Dual-In-Line Package)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 85°C
• Supply Voltage: 4.5 V to 5.5 V
• Logic Level Compatibility: TTL

The SN74F2373N is designed for use in systems that require the capture and retention of data. With its octal transparent D-type latches, it can hold eight bits of data. The transparent nature of the latches means that when the latch-enable (LE) input is high, the Q outputs follow the data (D) inputs. When LE is taken low, the Q outputs are latched at the levels set up at the D inputs.

Applications

This versatile IC can be used in a variety of applications, including:

• Buffer/Storage Registers
• Data Control and Switching
• Input/Output Port Expansion
• Microprocessor Peripheral Interface

The SN74F2373N is built to handle a broad spectrum of digital tasks. Its fast propagation delay times and low power consumption make it an excellent choice for interfacing with high-speed microprocessors and in systems where power efficiency is crucial.
