The SN74ACT533DBR is an integrated circuit (IC) component from Texas Instruments belonging to the ACT (Advanced CMOS Technology) family. This device is an octal transparent latch with 3-state outputs, useful for multiplexing, data storage, and bus driving applications. It provides a high-speed alternative to bipolar latch architectures while consuming lower power.
Key Features:
1. Octal Transparent Latches: The IC contains eight transparent latches, providing a reliable means for temporary data storage and easy manipulation.
2. Wide Operating Voltage Range: The SN74ACT533DBR operates within a broad voltage range, from 4.5 volts to 5.5 volts, allowing versatile usage across different systems.
3. High-Speed Performance: With a propagation delay of just 4.5 nanoseconds (typical), this IC ensures quick data transfer and efficient processing in time-critical applications.
4. 3-State Outputs: Each latch has a 3-state output control, which enables a "high-impedance" state when deselected. This feature permits multiple devices to share a common bus line without interfering with each other.
5. Inputs and Outputs Protection: The IC includes protection circuits that guard against damage caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD) and other excessive electrical stresses. These protection mechanisms enhance device longevity and reliability
