74VHCT373A
Octal D-Type Latch with 3-STATE Outputs
General Description
The VHCT373A is an advanced high speed CMOS octal D-
type latch with 3-STATE output fabricated with silicon gate
CMOS technology. It achieves the high speed operation
similar to equivalent Bipolar Schottky TTL while maintain-
ing the CMOS low power dissipation. This 8-bit D-type
latch is controlled by a latch enable input (LE) and an out-
put enable input (OE). The latches appear transparent to
data when latch enable (LE) is HIGH. When LE is LOW, the
data that meets the setup time is latched. When the OE
input is HIGH, the eight outputs are in a high impedance
state.
Protection circuits ensure that 0V to 7V can be applied to
the input and output (Note 1) pins without regard to the
supply voltage. This device can be used to interface 3V to
5V systems and two supply systems such as battery back
up. This circuit prevents device destruction due to mis-
matched supply and input voltages.
Note 1:
Outputs in OFF-State.

Functional Description
The VHCT373A 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 condition the latches are transparent, i.e., a latch out-
put will change state each time its D input changes. 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 controlled 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.

Note 2:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are values beyond which the device
may be damaged or have its useful life impaired. The databook specifica-
tions should be met, without exception, to ensure that the system design is
reliable over its power supply, temperature, and output/input loading vari-
ables. Fairchild does not recommend operation outside databook specifica-
tions.
