The MM74C373N is an integrated circuit (IC) component that serves as an octal transparent latch with 3-State outputs. It is part of the 74C logic family, which is known for its high-speed operation and compatibility with TTL input and output logic levels. The MM74C373N is widely used in digital systems for various applications.
Key Features of MM74C373N:
1. Octal Transparent Latch: The IC contains eight individual transparent latches, allowing the input data to be latched when the latch enable (LE) signal is active. This enables parallel loading of data into the latch.
2. 3-State Outputs: Each latch is equipped with a 3-State output capability, which means that the outputs can be put in a high impedance state using the output enable (OE) signal. This feature allows multiple latches to share a common bus without causing any interference.
3. TTL Compatibility: The MM74C373N is designed to be compatible with TTL input and output logic levels. This makes it versatile and easily integratable into various digital systems.
4. High-Speed Operation: The IC is designed for high-speed operation, enabling efficient data handling in time-critical applications.
5. Low Power Consumption: The MM74C373N is designed to consume low power, making it energy-efficient and suitable for battery-powered devices
