74AC16373DL

Latches Overview

The 74AC16373DL is a 16-bit transparent D-type latch manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features two independent 8-bit latches with true outputs, housed in a 48-pin SSOP package. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2V to 6V and supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum propagation delay of 14ns at 5V with a 50pF load, a low-level output current capability of 24mA, and a high-level output current of -12mA. Static current consumption is typically 8µA.

Latches Feature Summary

• Provides 16-bit data storage via two independent 8-bit transparent D-type latches
