Latches Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer designation, as this component has been associated with both Fairchild Semiconductor and onsemi due to corporate acquisition history. Confirm the lifecycle status, as some listings indicate obsolete or end-of-life conditions. Ensure the package type matches the required TSSOP-48 footprint and validate RoHS compliance requirements against current manufacturing standards before procurement.

Latches Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring 16-bit parallel data latching with tri-state bus isolation. The ALVC series offers superior speed compared to standard LVX families while maintaining low power dissipation. Ensure input voltage levels are compatible with the 1.65 V to 3.6 V operating range. Consider thermal management if operating near the upper temperature limits of -40°C to +85°C.

Latches Part Context

This part belongs to the ALVC (Advanced Low-Voltage CMOS) logic family, which provides high-speed performance with reduced power consumption. The 74ALVC162373TX is functionally similar to other 16-bit latches in the ALVC series but is distinguished by its specific pinout and three-state output configuration. It serves as a critical interface element in complex digital systems requiring synchronized data capture.

Latches Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify compatibility with equivalent parts such as the 74LCX162373 or 74ALVCH16373T only after confirming pin-to-pin compatibility and electrical parameter alignment through official datasheets.
