description/ordering information

The ’AC533 devices are octal transparent D-type

latches with 3-state outputs. When the

latch-enable (LE) input is high, the Q outputs

follow the complements of the data (D) inputs.

When LE is taken low, the Q outputs are latched

at the inverse logic 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 the

high-impedance state. In the high-impedance

state, the outputs neither load nor drive the bus

lines significantly. The high-impedance state and

increased drive provide the capability to drive bus

lines without need for interface or pullup

components.

OE does not affect the internal operations of the

latches. 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.
