ON Semiconductor MC74AC573DWR2G Octal Latch

The MC74AC573DWR2G is a high-performance, octal transparent latch designed and manufactured by ON Semiconductor. It is part of the AC series, which is renowned for its high-speed operation and compatibility with TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) levels. This integrated circuit is particularly suitable for applications requiring the temporary storage of information, acting as an interface between two systems or buses that operate at different times or speeds.

Constructed with advanced CMOS technology, the MC74AC573DWR2G offers a robust latch function with eight latches in a single package. Each latch is D-type, meaning it captures the state of the data inputs when the latch-enable (LE) input is high and retains this state when LE is low. The output-enable (OE) input controls the outputs, allowing the stored data to be presented on the outputs when OE is low or placing the outputs in a high-impedance state when OE is high.

The device comes in a 20-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package, which is a surface-mount device, identified by the suffix 'DWR2G'. This package type is designed for space-saving on PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards) and is suitable for automated assembly processes. The MC74AC573DWR2G operates over a broad voltage range from 2V to 6V, making it versatile for various logic-level applications.

Key features of the MC74AC573DWR2G include:

• Logic Type: Octal Transparent D-Type Latch
• Number of Circuits: 8
• Supply Voltage Range: 2V to 6V
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 85°C
• Package: 20-SOIC
• Output Drive Capability: 24mA at 5V

Applications for the MC74AC573DWR2G are diverse, including but not limited to, buffer storage, memory address latching, and data transmission systems. Its high-speed performance and compatibility with existing TTL systems make it a reliable choice for designers and engineers who require a dependable and efficient octal latch solution.

ON Semiconductor is known for its commitment to quality and reliability, and the MC74AC573DWR2G is no exception. It is a testament to the company's dedication to providing components that meet the stringent requirements of modern electronic systems.
