This 20-bit bus-interface D-type latch is designed for 2.3-V to 3.6-V VCC operation.
The SN74ALVCH162841 features 3-state outputs designed specifically for driving highly capacitive or relatively low-impedance loads. This device is particularly suitable for implementing buffer registers, unidirectional bus drivers, and working registers.
The SN74ALVCH162841 can be used as two 10-bit latches or one 20-bit latch. The 20 latches are transparent D-type latches. The device has noninverting data (D) inputs and provides true data at its outputs. While the latch-enable (1LE or 2LE) input is high, the Q outputs of the corresponding 10-bit latch follow the D inputs. When LE is taken low, the Q outputs are latched at the levels set up at the D inputs.
A buffered output-enable
input
can be used to place the outputs of the corresponding 10-bit latch in
either a normal logic state (high or low logic levels) or a
high-impedance state. In the high-impedance state, the outputs
neither load nor drive the bus lines significantly.
does not affect
the internal operation of the latches. Old data can be retained or
new data can be entered while the outputs are in the high-impedance
state.
The outputs, which are designed to sink up to 12 mA, include 26-
resistors to reduce overshoot and
undershoot.
To ensure the high-impedance state during power up or power down,
should be tied
to VCC through a pullup resistor; the minimum value of the
resistor is determined by the current-sinking capability of the
driver.
Active bus-hold circuitry is provided to hold unused or floating inputs at a valid logic level.
The SN74ALVCH162841 is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
