CD74HCT373E-NG

Latches Overview

The CD74HCT373E-NG is an octal transparent D-type latch manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features eight D-type latches with three-state outputs, designed for high-speed CMOS logic applications. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and supports through-hole mounting in a 20-pin PDIP package. It provides balanced propagation delay and transition times, ensuring reliable data storage and bus driving capacity.

Latches Feature Summary

• Octal transparent latch configuration with common latch enable control
• Three-state outputs with bus line driving capability
• Direct compatibility with LSTTL input logic levels
• Wide operating temperature range for industrial environments

Latches Applications

• Data storage in digital systems
• Bus-oriented memory applications
• Temporary storage of address or data information
• Parallel-to-serial conversion circuits

Latches Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'NG' against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm pinout and electrical characteristics match the standard CD74HCT373E. Ensure the component meets required RoHS compliance standards for your application. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributors to confirm availability and authenticity before procurement.

Latches Selection Notes

Select this component when an octal latch with three-state outputs is required for bus-driven applications. It is suitable for designs needing direct interface with LSTTL logic without additional level shifting. Consider the 20-PDIP package for through-hole prototyping or manufacturing requirements where surface mount options are not feasible.

Latches Part Context

This component belongs to the Texas Instruments 74HCT series of high-speed CMOS logic devices. The 74HCT series offers performance comparable to LS-TTL but with lower power consumption typical of CMOS technology. It is functionally compatible with standard 74LS373 devices, allowing for easy upgrades in existing designs requiring improved power efficiency.

Latches Replacement Considerations

Check for equivalent parts such as SN74HCT373 or other manufacturers' 74HCT373 variants. Ensure pin compatibility and electrical specifications match exactly. Verify that any substitute maintains the same three-state output functionality and voltage operating range.
