MC74VHC259M

The MC74VHC259M is an Integrated Circuit (IC) component commonly used in electronic devices for signal processing and control applications. It belongs to the VHC (Very High-Speed CMOS) logic family and is designed to operate with a voltage supply ranging from 2V to 6V. This IC is also compatible with TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) devices. The MC74VHC259M is a 3-state addressable latch with eight edge-triggered D-type flip-flops. It features an independent latch enable (LE) input and an address input (A) that allows individual control over each flip-flop. The eight outputs (Q0-Q7) provide the stored data of each flip-flop. Key Features: 1. Independent control: Each flip-flop can be addressed individually using the address input, giving independent control over the storage or retrieval of data. 2. 3-state outputs: The outputs (Q0-Q7) can be enabled or disabled using the latch enable (LE) input, allowing the IC to be connected to a bus or interface without interfering with other devices. 3. Edge-triggered operation: The flip-flops are triggered on the rising edge of the clock input (CLK). This ensures reliable storage of data during clock transitions. 4. Schmitt-trigger inputs: The inputs (LE, A, CLK) feature Schmitt-trigger action, making them highly tolerant to noisy and slow-rising signals
