IC component 74FCT162373ATPACT is a high-speed, non-inverting 16-bit transparent D-type latch with 3-state outputs. It is widely used for buffering and data storage applications in various digital systems. Here are the key features and functions of this IC:
1. Latching Function: The 74FCT162373ATPACT can latch data inputs (D0-D15) when the latch enable (LE) input is high. The latched data appears at the outputs (Q0-Q15) and remains stable until the latch enable input goes low.
2. Non-Inverting Operation: This IC employs non-inverting output buffers, ensuring that the output data is identical to the input data. It is useful when a signal needs to be passed through the IC without any inversion or modification.
3. 3-State Outputs: The IC features 3-state outputs (OE) which allow the outputs to be put into a high-impedance state when the output enable input is low. This feature enables multiple ICs to be connected together, forming a bus system.
4. High-Speed Operation: The 74FCT162373ATPACT operates at high-speed, making it suitable for applications where fast data transfer is required. It can handle data rates up to several hundred megahertz, ensuring efficient processing of digital signals.
5. Wide Supply Voltage Range: The IC has a wide supply voltage range of 4
