74LCX373FT

Latches Overview

The 74LCX373FT is an octal transparent latch manufactured by Toshiba Semiconductor and Storage, belonging to the LCX logic series. It features eight D-type latches with three-state outputs housed in a 20-TSSOP package. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 3.6 V. Key electrical parameters include a propagation delay of 8.5 ns at 3.3 V, a static current of 10 µA, and symmetrical output drive capabilities of 24 mA for both high and low states. It supports surface mount installation and functions reliably across an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Latches Feature Summary

• Provides eight independent transparent latch channels with true outputs.
• Features three-state outputs for effective bus line driving applications.
• Operates on low voltage supplies ranging from 1.65 V to 3.6 V.
• Ensures low power consumption through minimal static current draw.

Latches Applications

• Data register storage in digital systems
• Bus-oriented memory mapping
• Clocked driver circuits

Latches Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and package dimensions. Ensure that any alternative part numbers are cross-referenced with the latest Toshiba datasheets to validate functional equivalence before integration into designs.

Latches Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring octal latching with three-state control under low voltage conditions. Consider the 20-TSSOP package constraints and verify that the required drive current aligns with the specified 24 mA capability. Confirm that the operating temperature range meets the environmental requirements of the target application.

Latches Part Context

This component belongs to the 74LCX family of CMOS logic integrated circuits produced by Toshiba Semiconductor and Storage.
