74LVX373
Low Voltage Octal Transparent Latch with
3-STATE Outputs
General Description
The LVX373 consists of eight latches with 3-STATE outputs
for bus organized system applications. The latch es appe ar
transparent to the data when Latch Enable (LE) is HIGH.
When LE is LOW, the data satisfying the input timing
requirements is latched. Data appears on the bus when the
Output Enable (OE
) is LOW. When OE is HIGH, the bus
output is in the high impedance state. The inputs tolerate
up to 7V allowing interface of 5V systems to 3V systems.
Features
■ Input voltage translation from 5V to 3V
■ Ideal for low power/low noise 3.3V applications

Functional Description
The LVX373 contains eight D-type latches with 3-STATE
standard outputs. When the Latch Enable (LE) input is
HIGH, data on the D
n
inputs enters the latches. In this con-
dition the latches are transparent, i.e., a latch o utput will
change state each time its D input cha nges. When LE is
LOW, the latches store the information that was present on
the D inputs a setup time preceding the HIGH-to-LOW transition of LE. The 3-STATE standard outputs are controlle d
by the Output Enable (OE
) input. When OE is LOW, the
standard outputs are in the 2-state mode. When OE
is
HIGH, the standard outputs are in the high impedance
mode but this does not interfere with entering new data into
the latches.
