Product details
Overview
74LVC373APW,118 from Nexperia is an octal D-type transparent latch with 3-state outputs, latch enable (LE) and output enable (OE) controls, 5 V-tolerant I/O, 1.2 V to 3.6 V supply operation, and Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity - used in bus interface, level translation, and data latching between mixed-voltage subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC373APW,118 datasheet, 74LVC373APW,118 pinout, 74LVC373APW,118 application, or 74LVC373APW,118 equivalent, key selection criteria include 5 V input tolerance, IOFF partial power-down support, tpd ≤ 8.5 ns at 3.3 V, -40 °C to +125 °C operation, and TSSOP20 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device implements eight independent D-type latches with transparent mode when LE is HIGH and edge-triggered capture on LE HIGH-to-LOW transition. Each latch output drives a 3-state buffer controlled separately by OE, enabling shared-bus applications without affecting internal latch states.
Schmitt-trigger inputs ensure robust operation with slow-rising signals, while the IOFF circuit disables outputs and blocks backflow current when VCC = 0 V - critical for hot-swap and partial-power-down systems. Input voltage range extends to 5.5 V regardless of VCC, supporting direct interfacing between 3.3 V logic and legacy 5 V peripherals.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 1.2 V to 3.6 V - enables operation across low-power IoT nodes and industrial controllers using 1.8 V or 3.3 V rails. |
| Input Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - allows direct connection to 5 V sources without external level shifters in mixed-voltage systems. |
| Propagation Delay | ≤ 8.5 ns at VCC = 3.3 V - supports 100+ MHz bus timing margins in high-speed digital interfaces. |
| IOFF Leakage | ±10 μA at VCC = 0 V - prevents damaging back-current during power sequencing or hot-plug events. |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive modules and industrial motor drives. |
| ESD Rating | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - meets IEC 61000-4-2 system-level ESD robustness requirements. |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW max (TSSOP20) - supports continuous operation in thermally constrained enclosures with minimal heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP20 package (SOT360-1): 4.4 mm body width, 0.65 mm pitch, 20-terminal surface-mount outline optimized for automated assembly and thermal performance in space-constrained designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | Output Enable (active LOW) | Asserting LOW enables all eight Q outputs; HIGH forces high-impedance state independent of latch content. |
| 2 (VCC) | Positive Supply | 1.2–3.6 V logic rail; powers internal CMOS circuitry and output drivers. |
| 3–4, 7–8, 13–14, 17–18 (D0–D7) | Data Inputs | Eight asynchronous inputs accepting 0–5.5 V signals; Schmitt-triggered for noise rejection. |
| 5, 6, 9, 12, 15–16, 19 (Q0–Q7) | Latched Outputs | Octal 3-state outputs reflecting stored D-input values when OE = LOW and LE has captured data. |
| 10 (GND) | Ground Reference | 0 V return path for all internal logic and I/O; must be low-impedance for signal integrity. |
| 11 (LE) | Latch Enable (active HIGH) | HIGH enables transparent mode; falling edge captures D-inputs into latches for storage. |
| 20 (VCC) | Positive Supply | Duplicate VCC pin for improved power distribution and reduced supply impedance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5 V-tolerant inputs/outputs | Operates with 3.3 V supply while interfacing directly to 5 V buses - eliminates discrete level translators. |
| IOFF partial power-down | Automatically disables outputs and blocks reverse current when VCC = 0 V - essential for PCIe hot-plug and modular systems. |
| Schmitt-trigger inputs | Input hysteresis ≥ 0.3 V ensures reliable switching with slow or noisy signals - reduces need for external RC filtering. |
| JEDEC-compliant voltage ranges | Fully specified for JESD8-7A (1.65–1.95 V), JESD8-5A (2.3–2.7 V), and JESD8-C/JESD36 (2.7–3.6 V) - guarantees interoperability across standard logic families. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the 74LVC373APW,118 can tolerate when VCC = 1.8 V?
The 74LVC373APW,118 accepts input voltages up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level - confirmed in Table 5 (Recommended Operating Conditions) and Table 4 (Limiting Values). This allows safe interfacing with 5 V sources even when powered from 1.8 V, eliminating external level shifters in mixed-voltage designs.
Does the 74LVC373APW,118 support hot-swap or partial power-down operation?
Yes - its IOFF circuitry actively disables outputs and blocks backflow current when VCC = 0 V, as specified in Section 1 and Table 6 (Static Characteristics). Measured IOFF leakage is ±10 μA at -40 °C to +125 °C, meeting JEDEC JESD78 requirements for safe hot-insertion in modular systems.
How does the Schmitt-trigger input improve noise immunity compared to standard CMOS inputs?
Schmitt-trigger inputs provide ≥0.3 V hysteresis (difference between VIH and VIL thresholds), ensuring clean transitions even with slow-rising or noisy signals - verified in functional description and static characteristics tables. This eliminates false triggering without requiring external RC filters or debouncing firmware.
Can the 74LVC373APW,118 drive standard TTL loads directly?
Yes - per Section 2 (Features and benefits), it provides "Direct interface with TTL levels." VOH ≥ 2.0 V and VOL ≤ 0.8 V at 24 mA output drive (Table 6) meet TTL VIH (2.0 V min) and VIL (0.8 V max) thresholds, enabling seamless connection to legacy 5 V TTL devices without interface buffers.
