Product details
Overview
74HC573DB,112 from Nexperia is an octal D-type transparent latch with 3-state outputs, designed for bus-oriented digital systems requiring data latching and output isolation. It features independent latch enable (LE, active HIGH) and output enable (OE, active LOW), operates from 2.0 V to 6.0 V, supports -40 °C to +125 °C, and delivers 30 ns typical propagation delay at 4.5 V. It is used in microprocessor I/O port expansion and address/data bus buffering.
For engineers reviewing the 74HC573DB,112 datasheet, 74HC573DB,112 pinout, 74HC573DB,112 application, or 74HC573DB,112 equivalent, key selection criteria include 3-state bus drive capability, CMOS-level input compatibility, SO20 package mechanical fit, latch transparency timing, and industrial temperature range compliance.
Technical Context
The device implements eight independent D-type latches with synchronous parallel loading controlled by LE. When LE is HIGH, Qn follows Dn in real time (transparent mode); when LE transitions LOW, the input state is captured and held. OE operates independently to place all outputs in high-impedance state without affecting latch contents.
Input clamping diodes allow safe interfacing with voltages exceeding VCC using external current-limiting resistors. The logic family is HC (high-speed CMOS), ensuring TTL-compatible output drive while accepting CMOS-level inputs - distinct from the HCT variant which accepts TTL-level inputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | 74HC - high-speed CMOS, compatible with 2.0–6.0 V supply and CMOS-level inputs |
| Function | Octal transparent latch with 3-state non-inverting outputs and separate LE/OE controls |
| Propagation Delay | 30 ns typical (Dn→Qn) at VCC = 4.5 V, CL = 50 pF - determines maximum bus toggle rate |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.0 V to 6.0 V - enables interoperability across 3.3 V and 5 V systems |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for industrial and extended-temperature embedded control |
| Output Drive | ±7.8 mA at VCC = 4.5 V - sufficient to drive standard TTL loads and multiple CMOS inputs |
| Power Dissipation | 8.0 μA typical ICC at VCC = 6.0 V - ultra-low static power for battery-sensitive applications |
Pinout & Package
74HC573DB,112 is supplied in a plastic small outline package (SO20, SOT163-1) with 20 leads and 7.5 mm body width. Pin numbering follows standard SOIC convention with pin 1 index marker at top-left corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | 3-state output enable | Active LOW control: asserts high-impedance on all Q0–Q7 outputs without affecting latch state |
| 2–9 (D0–D7) | Data inputs | Parallel 8-bit data path entering latches when LE is HIGH; CMOS-level compatible |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | 0 V return for all internal circuitry and I/O; must be low-impedance connection |
| 11 (LE) | Latch enable | Active HIGH control: enables transparency (D→Q) when HIGH; captures Dn on HIGH-to-LOW edge |
| 12–19 (Q0–Q7) | Latched 3-state outputs | Non-inverting outputs mirroring stored Dn values; tri-stated when OE = HIGH |
| 20 (VCC) | Positive supply | Primary power rail (2.0–6.0 V); decoupling capacitor required near pin for noise immunity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide supply voltage range | 2.0 V to 6.0 V operation enables direct use in mixed-voltage 3.3 V/5 V systems without level shifters |
| Independent LE and OE controls | Allows latching and bus release to be sequenced separately - critical for glitch-free bus arbitration |
| Input clamp diodes | Enable safe interface to signals exceeding VCC via external current-limiting resistors, simplifying mixed-supply interconnect |
| High noise immunity | Typical VIH = 3.15 V and VIL = 1.35 V at VCC = 4.5 V - provides >1.8 V noise margin against ground bounce or crosstalk |
| Latch-up immunity | Exceeds 100 mA per JESD78 Class II Level B - ensures robustness in noisy industrial environments |
Applications
| Microprocessor I/O Expansion | Address Latching in 8080/8085 Systems |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Adding parallel I/O ports to legacy 8-bit microprocessors with limited native GPIO. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as bidirectional data latch between CPU data bus and peripheral devices; LE synchronized to WR signal, OE controlled by address decoder. Use Value: Enables stable 8-bit data capture during write cycles and high-Z tristate during read or idle - preventing bus contention. | Use Scenario: Capturing 8-bit address segments (e.g., A0–A7) in multiplexed AD bus architectures. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Transparent latch holding lower address byte while upper address is driven; LE triggered by ALE pulse. Use Value: Provides deterministic address hold with <30 ns propagation delay - meeting tight setup/hold timing for memory-mapped peripherals. |
| LED Matrix Column Driver | Industrial PLC Input Conditioning |
Use Scenario: Driving 8-column LED matrix with row scanning controller. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Stores column data from MCU and presents it in parallel to sink drivers; OE toggled per row scan cycle. Use Value: Delivers ±7.8 mA per output at 4.5 V - directly drives common-cathode LED columns without external transistors. | Use Scenario: Isolating and latching 8-channel digital sensor inputs in programmable logic controllers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Captures asynchronous field inputs on LE edge, then presents synchronized data to backplane bus via OE-gated outputs. Use Value: Input clamp diodes allow direct connection to 12 V/24 V industrial sensors using series resistors - eliminating discrete protection components. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal transparent latch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HCT573DB,112 | TTL-level inputs (VIH = 2.0 V min), identical pinout and function | Better compatibility with legacy 5 V TTL logic families; slightly higher ICC | Select when interfacing with older 5 V TTL outputs or mixed-logic systems where input thresholds must match TTL specs |
| SN74HC573PWR | TSSOP20 package (SOT360-1), same electrical specs, 4.4 mm body width | Smaller footprint and improved thermal performance; requires fine-pitch PCB assembly | Select for space-constrained designs where SO20 height or board area is limiting, and reflow capability exists |
Compared with 74HCT573DB,112, the HC version offers superior noise margins in CMOS systems but lacks TTL input compatibility; compared with SN74HC573PWR, the 74HC573DB,112 provides easier hand-soldering and legacy board compatibility due to SO20 lead pitch and mechanical profile.

FAQ
What is the difference between 74HC573DB,112 and 74HCT573DB,112?
The 74HC573DB,112 uses CMOS-level input thresholds (VIH ≥ 3.15 V at 4.5 V), while the 74HCT573DB,112 uses TTL-compatible inputs (VIH ≥ 2.0 V). Both share identical pinout, 3-state outputs, latch functionality, and SO20 packaging. Electrical performance, propagation delay, and supply range are otherwise matched.
Can 74HC573DB,112 operate reliably at 3.3 V?
Yes - the 74HC573DB,112 is fully specified from 2.0 V to 6.0 V. At 3.3 V, VIH = 2.31 V (70% of VCC) and VIL = 0.99 V (30% of VCC), providing 1.32 V noise margin. Propagation delay is ~38 ns typical, and output drive remains ±5.2 mA - sufficient for driving modern 3.3 V CMOS loads.
Is the GND pin (pin 10) electrically connected to the exposed pad in SO20 packages?
No - the exposed thermal pad in the SO20 (SOT163-1) package is not internally connected to GND. Per Nexperia documentation, it is a floating thermal pad with no electrical requirement for soldering; if soldered, it must remain electrically isolated or tied to GND externally per board design needs.
Does 74HC573DB,112 support hot insertion or live bus swapping?
No - the device lacks explicit hot-swap protection features such as power-up sequencing control or bus-fault current limiting. Input clamp diodes provide overvoltage tolerance only when current-limiting resistors are used. For live insertion, external protection circuitry (e.g., series resistors, TVS diodes) and strict power-rail sequencing are required.
