MM74HC259
8-Bit Addressable Latch/3-to-8 Line Decoder
General Description
The MM74HC259 device utilizes advanced silicon-gate
CMOS technology to implement an 8-bit addressable latch,
designed for general purpose storage applications in digital
systems.
The MM74HC259 has a single data input (D), 8 latch out-
puts (Q1–Q8), 3 address inputs (A, B, and C), a common
enable input (G), and a common CLEAR input. To operate
this device as an addressable latch, data is held on the D
input, and the address of the latch into which the data is to
be entered is held on the A, B, and C inputs. When
ENABLE is taken LOW the data flows through to the
addressed output. The data is stored when ENABLE transi-
tions from LOW-to-HIGH. All unaddressed latches will
remain unaffected. With enable in the HIGH state the
device is deselected, and all latches remain in their previ-
ous state, unaffected by changes on the data or address
inputs. To eliminate the possibility of entering erroneous
data into the latches, the enable should be held HIGH
(inactive) while the address lines are changing.
If enable is held HIGH and CLEAR is taken LOW all eight
latches are cleared to a LOW state. If enable is LOW all
latches except the addressed latch will be cleared. The
addressed latch will instead follow the D input, effectively
implementing a 3-to-8 line decoder.
All inputs are protected from damage due to static dis-
charge by diodes to V
CC
and ground.

Note 4:
For a power supply of 5V
±10%
the worst case output voltages (V
OH
, and V
OL
) occur for HC at 4.5V. Thus the 4.5V values should be used when
designing with this supply. Worst case V
IH
and V
IL
occur at V
CC
=5.5V
and 4.5V respectively. (The V
IH
value at 5.5V is 3.85V.) The worst case leakage current
(I
IN
, I
CC
, and I
OZ
) occur for CMOS at the higher voltage and so the 6.0V values should be used.
