Product details
Overview
74HC573BQ,115 from Nexperia is an octal D-type transparent latch with 3-state outputs, used for data latching and bus isolation in microprocessor I/O expansion, memory address buffering, and peripheral interfacing. It operates from 2.0 V to 6.0 V, features latch enable (LE) and output enable (OE) control, and delivers propagation delay as low as 14 ns at VCC = 6.0 V with CL = 50 pF.
For engineers reviewing the 74HC573BQ,115 datasheet, 74HC573BQ,115 pinout, 74HC573BQ,115 application, or 74HC573BQ,115 equivalent, key selection criteria include its CMOS-level input compatibility, -40 °C to +125 °C operating range, DHVQFN20 thermal-enhanced package, and precise timing parameters including tpd (Dn→Qn), tsu/th, and ten/tdis.
Technical Context
This device implements eight independent D-type latches with shared LE and OE controls, enabling simultaneous capture of 8-bit parallel data on a HIGH-to-LOW LE transition while maintaining transparency during LE HIGH. Its 3-state outputs support bidirectional bus sharing without contention.
The DHVQFN20 package (SOT764-1) provides 20 terminals in a 2.5 × 4.5 × 0.85 mm footprint with exposed thermal pad, supporting high-density PCB layouts and improved thermal performance over SO20 or TSSOP20 variants. Input clamp diodes allow safe interfacing with voltages exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply voltage | 2.0 V to 6.0 V - supports mixed-voltage system interfacing and battery-powered operation down to 2 V. |
| Propagation delay (Dn→Qn) | 14 ns (typ) at VCC = 6.0 V, CL = 50 pF - enables reliable 35 MHz+ data capture in high-speed digital control paths. |
| Set-up time (tsu) | 9 ns (min) at VCC = 6.0 V - defines minimum data stability window before LE falling edge for deterministic latching. |
| Enable time (ten) | 13 ns (typ) at VCC = 6.0 V - determines fastest achievable bus turnaround when enabling outputs after OE deassertion. |
| Output drive strength | ±7.8 mA (IOH/IOL) at VCC = 6.0 V - sufficient to drive standard TTL loads or multiple CMOS inputs without external buffers. |
| Input leakage current | ±0.1 μA (max) at VCC = 6.0 V - ensures minimal power draw and signal integrity in low-power standby modes. |
| Operating temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for industrial and extended-temperature embedded applications without derating. |
Pinout & Package
DHVQFN20 package (SOT764-1): 2.5 × 4.5 × 0.85 mm body, no leads, 20-terminal quad flat layout with exposed thermal pad (non-soldered or floating per datasheet guidance).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Reference ground node; required for stable logic thresholds and noise immunity. |
| 2–9 | D0–D7 | Asynchronous parallel data inputs; sampled on LE HIGH or latched on LE HIGH-to-LOW transition. |
| 10 | GND (thermal pad) | Non-electrical thermal interface pad; may be left floating or connected to GND plane for thermal relief. |
| 11 | LE | Latch enable (active HIGH); controls transparency vs. storage mode; synchronous edge-triggered behavior. |
| 12–19 | Q0–Q7 | 3-state non-inverting latch outputs; driven only when OE = LOW; high-impedance when OE = HIGH. |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply rail; powers internal logic and output drivers; decoupling capacitor required near pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide supply range | 2.0 V to 6.0 V operation enables direct interface with 3.3 V and 5 V systems without level shifters. |
| CMOS-level inputs | VIH ≥ 3.15 V (at VCC = 4.5 V) and VIL ≤ 1.35 V - compatible with standard HC logic families and microcontroller GPIOs. |
| 3-state bus interface | Common OE input allows synchronized bus release across all 8 outputs, preventing contention in shared-data-path designs. |
| Latch transparency | Outputs track inputs continuously while LE = HIGH - supports real-time monitoring and dynamic data routing. |
| ESD robustness | HBM > 2000 V and CDM > 1000 V - reduces risk of handling damage during assembly and field service. |
Applications
| Microprocessor I/O Expansion | Memory Address Latching |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Expanding GPIO count on an ARM Cortex-M4 MCU by adding parallel 8-bit port via address/data bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as bidirectional data latch between MCU data bus and peripheral registers, controlled by LE from address strobe and OE from chip select. Use Value: Enables deterministic read/write cycles with 14 ns propagation delay and sub-10 ns setup time, eliminating timing violations in 20 MHz bus operation. |
Use Scenario: Capturing upper address bits from a Z80 CPU during instruction fetch to drive external memory bank select logic. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Transparent latch holding A8–A15 during MREQ active, then storing address for memory decode while bus transitions to data phase. Use Value: Provides clean address hold with 5 ns hold time margin and 13 ns enable time, ensuring glitch-free bank switching at 4 MHz CPU clock. |
| Industrial Sensor Interface | PLC Digital I/O Module |
|
Use Scenario: Isolating and buffering 8-channel analog-to-digital converter outputs before transmission to a fieldbus controller. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Latches ADC parallel output on conversion complete signal (LE), then presents data to controller bus only when enabled (OE). Use Value: Prevents bus contention during ADC conversion; ±7.8 mA drive strength ensures reliable signal integrity over 10 cm PCB traces at 5 V. |
Use Scenario: Implementing isolated input conditioning for 8-channel discrete sensor inputs in a DIN-rail mounted PLC module. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronizes opto-isolator outputs into a common latch, then presents consolidated status to backplane bus under programmable OE control. Use Value: Supports -40 °C to +125 °C ambient operation with <0.1 μA input leakage, minimizing false triggers in harsh industrial environments. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal transparent latch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HCT573BQ,115 | TTL-compatible inputs (VIH = 2.0 V min), identical pinout and timing at 4.5–5.5 V. | Better interoperability with legacy 5 V TTL logic and microcontrollers lacking 3.3 V tolerant inputs. | Select when interfacing with 5 V-only systems where HC-level VIH would cause marginal recognition. |
| SN74HC573PWR | TSSOP20 package (SOT360-1), same electrical specs but 4.4 mm body width and 0.65 mm pitch. | Higher board density than DHVQFN20 but lower thermal performance; no exposed pad for heat dissipation. | Choose for cost-sensitive, space-constrained designs where thermal load is low and reflow profile supports fine-pitch packages. |
Compared with 74HCT573BQ,115, the HC variant offers wider voltage flexibility (2–6 V) but requires higher VIH; versus SN74HC573PWR, the DHVQFN20 improves thermal resistance by ~25 % and enables tighter routing around the package perimeter.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the 74HC573BQ,115?
The 74HC573BQ,115 is not a clocked register but a transparent latch; it has no internal clock. Its usable data rate depends on external timing constraints: with 14 ns propagation delay and 9 ns setup time at VCC = 6.0 V, it supports reliable latching up to approximately 35 MHz in systems where LE is driven by a clean, jitter-controlled strobe signal meeting specified timing margins.
Can the thermal pad (pin 10) be soldered to ground?
Yes, the thermal pad (pin 10) may be soldered to a GND plane for improved thermal dissipation, but the datasheet explicitly states there is no electrical requirement to do so. If soldered, the land must remain electrically floating or connected only to GND - never to any other net - to avoid violating internal isolation design and risking latch malfunction.
How does the 74HC573BQ,115 differ from the 74HC574 in system design?
The 74HC573BQ,115 is a transparent latch (edge-triggered on LE falling edge, transparent when LE HIGH), whereas the 74HC574 is a positive-edge D flip-flop. In practice, this means the 573 allows real-time data observation during LE HIGH, while the 574 captures only on clock edges. The 573 is preferred for address latching and bus isolation; the 574 suits synchronous pipeline stages.
Is the 74HC573BQ,115 suitable for automotive applications?
No. The 74HC573BQ,115 is rated for -40 °C to +125 °C operation but is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Nexperia explicitly states that unless designated "automotive qualified" in the datasheet, the part is unsuitable for safety-critical or life-support automotive systems. It may be used in non-safety automotive infotainment or diagnostics tools only with full customer validation.
