74AC373 74ACT373
Octal Transparent Latch with 3-STATE Outputs
General Description
The AC/ACT373 consists of eight latches with 3-STATE
outputs for bus organized system applications. The flip-
flops appear transparent to the data when Latch Enable
(LE) is HIGH. When LE is LOW, the data that meets the
setup time is latched. Data appears on the bus when the
Output Enable (OE) is LOW. When OE is HIGH, the bus
output is in the high impedance state.
Features
ICC and IOZ reduced by 50%
Eight latches in a single package
3-STATE outputs for bus interfacing
Outputs source/sink 24 mA
ACT373 has TTL-compatible inputs

Functional Description
The AC/ACT373 contains eight D-type latches with 3-
STATE standard outputs. When the Latch Enable (LE)
input is HI GH, data on the Dn inpu ts enters t he latches. In
this c ondition the latches ar e transparen t, i.e., a latch out-
put will change state each time its D-type input changes.
When LE is LOW, the latches store the information that
was present on the D-type inputs a setup time preceding
the HI GH-to-LOW tr ansition of LE . The 3-STATE stan dard
outputs are controlled by the Output Enable (OE) input.
When OE is LOW, the standard outputs are in the 2-state
mode. When OE is HIGH, the standard outputs are in the
high impedance mode but this does not interfere with
entering new data into the latches.
