74AHCT373PW,118

Latches Overview

The 74AHCT373PW,118 is an octal D-type transparent latch with 3-state outputs manufactured by Nexperia. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.0 V to 5.5 V and features overvoltage tolerant inputs up to 5.5 V. The device includes latch enable (LE) and output enable (OE) inputs for bus-oriented applications. It provides balanced propagation delays and high noise immunity. Static characteristics include low power dissipation typical of CMOS technology. ESD protection exceeds 2000 V per HBM and 1000 V per CDM standards.

Latches Feature Summary

• Octal D-type transparent latch with 3-state outputs
• Overvoltage tolerant inputs allowing use in mixed voltage environments
• Common 3-state output enable input for bus oriented applications
• High noise immunity with Schmitt-trigger action on all inputs

Latches Applications

• Bus oriented data storage applications
• Mixed voltage translation environments
• General purpose digital logic circuits

Latches Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required package variant. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation before integration. Ensure design margins account for the specified operating temperature range and absolute maximum ratings to prevent device stress or permanent damage during operation.

Latches Selection Notes

Select this component when an octal latch with 3-state outputs is required for bus systems. The AHCT series ensures compatibility with standard TTL logic levels while offering CMOS performance benefits. Verify that the TSSOP-20 package fits the available PCB footprint and thermal constraints for the target application environment.

Latches Part Context

This part belongs to the 74AHC/HCT logic family, which combines high-speed CMOS performance with TTL-compatible input levels. The PW suffix indicates a TSSOP-20 plastic thin shrink small outline package. Nexperia manufactures this component as part of their extensive portfolio of standard logic integrated circuits designed for general-purpose digital applications.

Latches Replacement Considerations

The 74HCT373PW is functionally identical regarding pin arrangement and logic operations but differs in the logic family specifications. Designers must verify voltage level compatibility and switching speed requirements when substituting between AHC and HCT variants.
