1. General description

The 74ALVCH16373 is a 16-bit D-type transparent latch with bus hold inputs and 3-state outputs.

The device can be used as two 8-bit transparent latches or a single 16-bit transparent latch. The

device features two latch enables (1LE and 2LE) and two output enables (1OE and 2OE), each

controlling 8-bits. When nLE 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 nLE is LOW the latches store the information that was present at the inputs a set-up time

preceding the HIGH-to-LOW transition of nLE. A HIGH on nOE causes the outputs to assume a

high-impedance OFF-state. Operation of the nOE input does not affect the state of the latches. This

device is fully specified for partial power down applications using IOFF. The IOFF circuitry disables

the output, preventing the potentially damaging backflow current through the device when it is

powered down.
