DESCRIPTION

This 16-bit transparent D-type latch is designed for

2.7-V to 3.6-V VCC operation.

The SN74LVC16373 is particularly suitable for

implementing buffer registers, I/O ports, bidirectional

bus drivers, and working registers. It can be used as

two 8-bit latches or one 16-bit latch. 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.

A buffered output-enable (OE) input can be used to place the eight outputs in either a normal logic state (high or

low logic levels) or a high-impedance state. In the high-impedance state, the outputs neither load nor drive the

bus lines significantly. The high-impedance state and the increased drive provide the capability to drive bus lines

without need for interface or pullup components.

OE does not affect internal operations of the latch. Old data can be retained or new data can be entered while

the outputs are in the high-impedance state.

To ensure the high-impedance state during power up or power down, OE should be tied to VCC through a pullup

resistor; the minimum value of the resistor is determined by the current-sinking capability of the driver.

Active bus-hold circuitry is provided to hold unused or floating data inputs at a valid logic level.

The SN74LVC16373 is characterized for operation from –40°C to 85°C.
