74F256Dual addressable latch
FEA TURES
•Combines dual demultiplexer and 8-bit latch
•Serial-to-parallel capability
•Output from each storage bit available
•Random (addressable) data entry
•Easily expandable
•Common reset input
•Useful as dual 1-of-4 active High decoder
DESCRIPTION
The 74F256 dual addressable latch has four distinct modes of
operation which are selectable by controlling the Master Reset (MR
and Enable (E
mode, data at the Data inputs is written into the addressed latches.
The addressed latches will follow the Data input with all
unaddressed latches remaining in their previous states. In the
memory mode, all latches remain in their previous states and are
unaffected by the Data or Address inputs. To eliminate the possibility
of entering erroneous data in the latches, the enable should be held
High (inactive) while the address lines are changing. In the dual
1-of-4 decoding or demultiplexing mode (MR
outputs will follow the level of the Data inputs, with all other outputs
Low. In the Master Reset mode, all outputs are Low and unaffected
by the Address and Data inputs.
