1. General description

The 74AHC573; 74AHCT573 is an 8-bit D-type transparent latch with 3-state outputs. The device

features latch enable (LE) and output enable (OE) inputs. When LE is HIGH, data at the inputs

enter the latches. In this condition the latches are transparent, a latch output will change each time

its corresponding D-input changes. When LE is LOW the latches store the information that was

present at the inputs a set-up time preceding the HIGH-to-LOW transition of LE. A HIGH on OE

causes the outputs to assume a high-impedance OFF-state. Operation of the OE input does not

affect the state of the latches. Inputs are overvoltage tolerant. This feature allows the use of these

devices as translators in mixed voltage environments.
