74AC11373NT

Latches Overview

The SN74AC11373NT is an octal transparent D-type latch with three-state outputs manufactured by Texas Instruments. It belongs to the AC logic series and features a non-inverting polarity. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V. Key electrical parameters include a propagation delay of 9.5 ns, a static current of 4 uA, a low-level output current of 32 mA, and a high-level output current of -24 mA. It supports through-hole installation in a PDIP-20 package and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Latches Feature Summary

• Octal transparent D-type latch architecture providing eight independent data storage elements.
• Three-state outputs enable direct bus-driven connections without additional interface hardware.
• Wide operating voltage range from 2 V to 6 V accommodates various system power standards.

Latches Applications

• Parallel-to-serial data conversion circuits
• Bus-oriented memory register structures
• Temporary data storage in digital control systems

Latches Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'NT' against the official Texas Instruments datasheet to confirm the PDIP-20 through-hole package variant. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required pin configuration and mechanical dimensions for your PCB footprint. Cross-reference the RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level with the latest manufacturer documentation before finalizing procurement.

Latches Selection Notes

Select this component when a wide 2 V to 6 V supply range is required compared to standard 5 V only logic families. The AC series offers faster switching speeds than legacy HC variants while maintaining compatible pinouts. Verify that the 32 mA sink capability meets the load requirements of the connected circuitry without exceeding thermal limits.
