The 74HC/HCT173 are high-speed Si-gate CMOS devices
and are pin compatible with low power Schottky TTL
(LSTTL). They are specified in compliance with JEDEC
standard no. 7A.
The 74HC/HCT173 are 4-bit parallel load registers with
clock enable control, 3-state buffered outputs (Q
to Q3)
0
and master reset (MR).
When the two data enable inputs (E1 andE2) are LOW, the
data on the Dn inputs is loaded into the register

amb
synchronously with the LOW-to-HIGH clock (CP)
transition. When one or both En inputs are HIGH one
set-up time prior to the LOW-to-HIGH clock transition, the
register will retain the previous data. Data inputs and clock
enable inputs are fully edge-triggered and must be stable
only one set-up time prior to the LOW-to-HIGH clock
transition.
The master reset input (MR) is an active HIGH
asynchronous input. When MR is HIGH, all four flip-flops
are reset (cleared) independently of any other input
condition.
The 3-state output buffers are controlled by a 2-input NOR
gate. When both output enable inputs (OE1 and OE2) are
LOW, the data in the register is presented to the Q
n
outputs. When one or both OEn inputs are HIGH, the
outputs are forced to a high impedance OFF-state. The
3-state output buffers are completely independent of the
register operation; the OEn transition does not affect the
clock and reset operations.
