74LCX841MTCX

Latches Overview

The Fairchild Semiconductor 74LCX841MTCX is a D-Type Transparent Latch integrated circuit belonging to the LCX logic family. It features a single channel with a 10:10 circuit configuration and tri-state outputs. The device is housed in a 24-TSSOP package. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2V to 3.6V, ensuring low power dissipation while maintaining high-speed performance suitable for portable applications.

Latches Feature Summary

• D-Type transparent latch architecture with single-channel operation
• Tri-state output capability for bus-driven systems
• Low voltage operation optimized for portable electronics
• 5V tolerant inputs compatible with mixed-voltage environments

Latches Applications

• Bus-oriented memory mapping
• Temporary data storage in digital circuits
• Interface between microprocessors and peripheral devices
• Level shifting in mixed-voltage logic systems

Latches Procurement Notes

Verify the component status as obsolete when sourcing from primary channels. Confirm the manufacturer is Fairchild Semiconductor or an authorized licensee. Ensure the package matches the 24-TSSOP specification. Check for RoHS compliance if required by your assembly process. Validate the part number suffix against current distributor listings to avoid counterfeit or mismatched variants.

Latches Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring transparent latching with tri-state control in low-voltage environments. It is suitable for replacing older HC/HCT series parts where lower power consumption is critical. Ensure the system voltage aligns with the 2V to 3.6V operating range. Consider the 24-TSSOP footprint during PCB layout planning.

Latches Part Context

This part belongs to the 74LCX series, which utilizes advanced CMOS technology for high speed and low power. The LCX family is designed to bridge the gap between legacy 5V logic and modern 3.3V systems. The 841 variant specifically provides latch functionality with tri-state outputs, distinguishing it from standard buffers or flip-flops in the same family.
