CD74LPT373AM

Latches Overview

The CD74LPT373AM is an octal transparent latch manufactured by Harris Corporation, belonging to the LPT series. It features a single function with eight bits and true output polarity. The device utilizes CMOS technology and is housed in a 20-pin PDSO (Small Outline) package. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C and supports a load capacitance of 50 pF. The component provides three-state outputs with a maximum output current of 0.024 A.

Latches Feature Summary

• Octal transparent latch architecture with tri-state outputs
• CMOS construction for low power consumption
• Wide operating temperature range suitable for industrial environments

Latches Applications

• Data storage in digital systems
• Bus interface circuits
• Parallel data buffering

Latches Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Harris Corporation or its successor entities, noting that original Harris logic products may have been acquired by other semiconductor firms. Confirm the specific suffix 'AM' corresponds to the bulk packaging type and ensure the component meets the required RoHS compliance status, as indicated by non-compliant markers in some databases. Validate the pinout configuration against the SOP20,.4 package specification to prevent installation errors.

Latches Selection Notes

Select this component when an octal latch with tri-state capability is required for bus holding applications. The LPT series offers specific electrical characteristics distinct from HC or HCT families. Ensure the design accommodates the 50 pF load capacitance and the specified output drive current. Consider the plastic epoxy package material and thermal limits if operating near the upper temperature boundary.

Latches Part Context

This part belongs to the Harris LPT series of high-speed CMOS logic devices. The CD74LPT373AM is functionally similar to other octal latches but is distinguished by its specific voltage and speed characteristics defined by the LPT family. Harris Corporation was a significant producer of such logic ICs before industry consolidations affected product lines.

Latches Replacement Considerations

The CD74HC373 is a related high-speed CMOS octal transparent latch with three-state outputs. Verify compatibility regarding supply voltage levels and switching speeds, as LPT and HC families may differ in electrical specifications despite functional similarities.
