DESCRIPTION

The 74ALS373 is an octal transparent latch coupled to eight 3-State output devices. The two sections of the device are controlled independently by enable (E) and output enable (OE) control gates.

The data on the D inputs is transferred to the latch outputs when the enable (E) input is High. The latch remains transparent to the data input while E is High, and stores the data that is present one setup time before the High-to-Low enable transition.

The 3-State output buffers are designed to drive heavily loaded 3-State buses, MOS memories, or MOS microprocessors.
