74HCT373PW,118

Latches Overview

The 74HCT373PW,118 is an octal D-type transparent latch manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc. It belongs to the HCT logic family and features tri-state outputs. The device is housed in a 20-pin TSSOP package (SOT360). It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V. The component is designed for surface-mount installation and supports industrial temperature ranges.

Latches Feature Summary

• Octal configuration providing eight independent D-type transparent latches
• Tri-state output capability for effective bus driving applications
• HCT logic compatibility ensuring direct interface with TTL-driven systems

Latches Applications

• Data storage registers in digital communication interfaces
• Bus-oriented memory mapping circuits
• Parallel-to-serial data conversion stages

Latches Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including the suffix ,118 to ensure correct packaging specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official Nexperia documentation prior to integration. Validate that the TSSOP-20 footprint matches the target PCB design constraints. Ensure supply chain sources provide authentic components with traceable manufacturing records.

Latches Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing with TTL-level signals requiring high noise immunity. The HCT series offers speed characteristics suitable for moderate-frequency digital logic. Consider the TSSOP-20 package for space-constrained designs requiring multiple latch channels. Verify power supply stability within the specified 4.5 V to 5.5 V range for optimal performance.

Latches Part Context

This component is part of the standard 74HCT logic family, widely used in general-purpose digital electronics. It serves as a fundamental building block for sequential logic circuits. The PW suffix indicates the specific TSSOP package variant. Nexperia manufactures this device to meet automotive and industrial quality standards where applicable.

Latches Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 74HCT373 variants from different manufacturers offering identical pinouts and electrical characteristics. Verify logical equivalence and package dimensions before substitution. Cross-reference datasheets to confirm matching tri-state behavior and supply voltage requirements.
