The SN74ACT573DWR is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the SN74ACT573 series. It is designed as an octal transparent D-type latch with 3-state outputs. This IC is widely used in various digital circuits that demand efficient and reliable latch functionality.
Key Features:
1. Octal Latch: The SN74ACT573DWR consists of eight individual transparent D-type latches, allowing it to store and latch eight different input signals simultaneously.
2. Transparent Operation: The latch performs "transparent" operations where data input is directly transferred to the output when the latch enable (LE) input is high. This feature enables smooth signal propagation and simplifies complex digital systems.
3. High-Speed Operation: With a broad operating voltage range (2V to 5.5V), this IC ensures fast and reliable latch functionality by delivering high-speed performance with a maximum propagation delay time of 7.5 ns.
4. 3-State Outputs: Each of the eight latches has an independent 3-state output (Q) pin, controlled by the Output Enable (OE) input. This feature allows the outputs to be disabled or tri-stated, facilitating bus sharing and reducing signal conflicts
