The 74LC373A from Texas Instruments is a high-performance, CMOS octal transparent D-type latch designed to provide storage and interface capability for bus-oriented systems. With its transparent latches, it can be used to store information that is available on the input pins when the latch-enable (LE) input is high. The information is retained when the LE is low, and the outputs are non-inverting from the inputs.
