BiMOS II DUAL 8-BIT LATCHED
DRIVER WITH READ BACK
With 16 CMOS data latches (two sets of eight), CMOS control
circuitry for each set of latches, and a bipolar saturated driver for each
latch, the UCN5881EP provides low-power interface with maximum
flexibility. The driver includes thermal shutdown circuitry to protect
against damage from high junction temperatures and clamp diodes
for inductive load transient suppression.
The CMOS inputs cause minimal circuit loading and are compatible with standard CMOS, PMOS, and NMOS circuits. TTL or DTL
circuits may require the use of appropriate pull up resistors. When
reading back, each data input will sink 8 mA (if its corresponding latch
is low) or source 400 µA (if its corresponding latch is high). The read
back feature is for error checking. It allows the system to verify that
data has been received and latched.
The bipolar outputs are suitable for use with low-power relays,
solenoids, and stepping motors. The very-low output saturation
Dwg. No. A-14,225
voltage makes this device well-suited for driving LED arrays. The
output transistors are capable of sinking 50 mA and will maintain at
least 20 V in the OFF state. Outputs may be paralleled for higher
current capability.
The UCN5881EP dual 8-bit latched sink driver is rated for operation over the temperature range of -20°C to +85°C and is supplied in a
plastic 44-lead chip carrier conforming to the JEDEC MS-007AB
outline.

A high on the READ/WRITE input allows
the circuit to accept data in. Information then
present at an input is transferred to its latch
when the STROBE is high. A high CLEAR
input will set all latches to the output OFF
condition regardless of the data or STROBE
input levels. A high OUTPUT ENABLE will
set all outputs to the OFF condition regardless of any other input conditions. When the
OUTPUT ENABLE is low, the outputs depend on the state of their respective latches.
A low on the READ/WRITE input will
allow the latched data to be read back on the
data input lines. Allow a minimum of 750 ns
delay (will increase with capacitive loading)
before reading back the state of the latches.
The read back feature is for error checking
applications and allows the system to verify
that data has been received and latched.
