The MC74VHCT573ADTR2 is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the VHCT family of CMOS logic devices. It is a high-speed octal transparent latch with 3-state outputs, designed to be used in various digital applications. Here is an overview of its key features:
1. Input/Output: The IC has eight inputs and eight outputs, making it suitable for latch and storage applications with octal data buses.
2. Latch Function: The device utilizes a transparent latch design, which means that the outputs directly follow the inputs when the latch enable (LE) input is high. This enables the real-time transfer of data to the output registers.
3. Edge Triggered: The latch is edge triggered, specifically, it responds to the low-to-high (positive) transition of the enable input.
4. 3-State Outputs: One of the most useful features of the MC74VHCT573ADTR2 is its 3-state outputs. When the output enable (OE) input is high, the outputs are in a high-impedance state, effectively disconnecting them from the output bus. This feature allows multiple devices to share the same data bus without creating conflicts.
5. Wide Operating Voltage Range: The IC operates with a wide voltage range, accommodating both TTL and CMOS logic levels. The voltage range can be between 2.0V and 5.5V
