The 74F543SCX is an Integrated Circuit (IC) component that belongs to the 74F series of TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) logic chips. This particular IC is a octal transparent latch with TRI-STATE outputs, which means it can store data and provide output signals based on the input signals it receives.
Here are some key features of the 74F543SCX:
1. Octal Transparent Latch: The IC features eight transparent latches, which means they can store data when the enable (E) input is high and directly pass the input to the output when enabled.
2. TRI-STATE Outputs: This IC has TRI-STATE outputs, which allows the outputs to be in either high, low, or high-impedance state. The high-impedance state is useful when multiple 74F543SCX ICs are connected together, as it prevents bus conflicts.
3. Edge-Triggered Data Strobe: The IC provides a data strobe input (DS) that can be used to latch the data present on the inputs. The DS input is edge-triggered, meaning the data is latched only when the strobe signal transitions from low to high.
4. Active-low Output Enable: The IC has an active-low output enable (OE) input. When OE is low, the outputs are enabled and can pass the stored data
