high-logic-level drive provide these flip-flops with
the capability of being connected directly to and
driving the bus lines in a bus-organized system without need for interface or pull-up components. Up to 128 of
the SN74173 or SN74LS173A outputs can be connected to a common bus and still drive two Series 54/74 or
54LS/74LS TTL normalized loads, respectively . Similarly, up to 49 of the SN54173 or SN54LS173A outputs can
be connected to a common bus and drive one additional Series 54/74 or 54LS/74LS TTL normalized load,
respectively. To minimize the possibility that two outputs will attempt to take a common bus to opposite logic
levels, the output control circuitry is designed so that the average output disable times are shorter than the
average output enable times.
Gated enable inputs are provided on these devices for controlling the entry of data into the flip-flops. When both
data-enable (G
1, G2) inputs are low, data at the D inputs are loaded into their respective flip-flops on the next
positive transition of the buffered clock input. Gate output-control (M, N) inputs also are provided. When both
are low, the normal logic states (high or low levels) of the four outputs are available for driving the loads or bus
lines. The outputs are disabled independently from the level of the clock by a high logic level at either
output-control input. The outputs then present a high impedance and neither load nor drive the bus line. Detailed
operation is given in the function table.
The SN54173 and SN54LS173A are characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of
–55°C to 125°C. The SN74173 and SN74LS173A are characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C.
