Product details
Overview
74LVC573AMTR from STMicroelectronics is an octal D-type transparent latch with 3-state outputs, designed for 1.65V–3.6V operation in low-power digital systems. It features latch enable (LE) and output enable (OE) controls, symmetrical ±24mA drive at 3V, 6.8ns max propagation delay, and 5V-tolerant inputs - enabling direct interfacing between 3.3V logic and legacy 5V TTL/NMOS buses.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC573AMTR datasheet, 74LVC573AMTR pinout, 74LVC573AMTR application, or 74LVC573AMTR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 8-bit latch function with independent OE/LE control, high-speed 3.3V performance exceeding 74AC/ACT families, PCI-bus-level drive capability, and robust ESD immunity (>2kV HBM).
Technical Context
The 74LVC573A implements a transparent latch architecture where Q outputs follow D inputs when LE is HIGH, and hold the last D value when LE transitions LOW. Output state is further controlled by OE: LOW enables normal logic outputs; HIGH places all eight Q pins in high-impedance mode.
It operates across 1.65V–3.6V VCC with data retention down to 1.2V, supports 5V-tolerant inputs regardless of supply voltage, and delivers balanced tPLH ≅ tPHL propagation delays. Its C2MOS process ensures latch-up immunity >500mA and static protection compliant with MIL-STD-883 method 3015.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65V to 3.6V - enables interoperability across 1.8V, 2.5V, and 3.3V logic domains |
| tPD (max) | 6.8ns at VCC = 3.0V - supports >100MHz bus timing in transparent-latch mode |
| IOL / IOH | ±24mA at VCC = 3.0–3.6V - drives PCI-compliant loads without external buffers |
| Input Tolerance | 5V tolerant - allows mixed-voltage system interfacing without level shifters |
| IOZ Leakage | ±5µA at VCC = 3.6V - ensures minimal current draw in 3-state standby |
| Power Dissipation | CPD = 34pF at 3.3V - predicts ~1.1mW/MHz dynamic power at typical load |
| ESD Rating | HBM > 2000V - meets industrial-grade handling requirements without special precautions |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-20 package: 6.5mm × 4.4mm body, 0.65mm pitch, lead-free, RoHS-compliant surface-mount outline per JEDEC MO-153.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | Active-low 3-state output enable | Drives all Q0–Q7 into high-Z when HIGH; enables normal logic output when LOW |
| 2–9 (D0–D7) | Data inputs | Accept 5V-tolerant signals; feed latch input stage during LE = HIGH |
| 11 (LE) | Latch enable | Transparent pass-through when HIGH; captures and holds D-input state on falling edge |
| 12–19 (Q0–Q7) | 3-state latch outputs | Drive bidirectional buses; sink/source up to 24mA with matched impedance |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for all I/O and supply currents; must be low-inductance connection |
| 20 (VCC) | Positive supply | Primary power rail; decoupling capacitor required within 5mm for stable switching |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Pin-compatible replacement | Direct drop-in for 74LS573 and 74HC573 in 3.3V systems with no layout change |
| Power-down protection | Inputs and outputs remain high-Z and non-destructive when VCC = 0V |
| Symmetrical drive strength | |IOH| = IOL = 24mA min at 3V - eliminates skew in bus termination design |
| Balanced propagation delays | tPLH ≅ tPHL - minimizes setup/hold window violations in synchronous latch applications |
| Low dynamic noise | VOLP = 0.8V, VOLV = −0.8V at CL = 50pF - reduces simultaneous switching noise on shared VCC/GND |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Backplane Interface | Embedded Microcontroller Data Bus Latching |
|---|---|
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal transparent latch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC573APWR (TI) | Identical electrical specs; different TSSOP-20 footprint (JEDEC MO-153 vs TI's own variant), slightly higher ICC (12µA vs 10µA) | Same functional behavior; requires PCB land pattern verification for solder joint reliability | Preferred for TI-centric BOMs; validated for automotive temp range (−40°C to 125°C) |
| 74ALVC573PW,118 (Nexperia) | Lower CPD (24pF vs 34pF); identical VCC range and drive strength; 1.5ns faster tPD (5.3ns max at 3V) | Enables marginally higher bus frequencies; same pinout but tighter AC timing margins | Optimal for high-density, low-power designs where dynamic power reduction >15% is critical |
Compared with SN74LVC573APWR, the 74LVC573AMTR offers lower quiescent current and ST's extended industrial qualification; versus 74ALVC573PW, it trades 1.5ns speed for broader voltage-margin stability and proven field reliability in motor-control environments.

FAQ
Can 74LVC573AMTR operate reliably at 1.65V VCC with full timing guarantees?
Yes. All AC and DC specifications - including tPD ≤ 8.2ns, VIH ≥ 0.65×VCC, and IOL ≥ ±4mA - are fully guaranteed across 1.65V–3.6V per the datasheet's Recommended Operating Conditions table. At 1.65V, it delivers deterministic latching with 4mA drive, making it suitable for ultra-low-power battery-backed applications.
Is the 74LVC573AMTR pinout compatible with standard SO-20 footprints?
No. The "MTR" suffix denotes TSSOP-20 packaging (6.5mm × 4.4mm, 0.65mm pitch), which is physically incompatible with SO-20 (12.8mm × 7.6mm, 1.27mm pitch). Board layout must use the TSSOP-20 land pattern per ST's PO13L mechanical drawing; no adapter or socket is recommended due to signal integrity risks.
What happens to outputs when VCC = 0V and OE/LE are driven externally?
Outputs enter high-impedance state with <5µA off-state leakage (Ioff), and inputs exhibit power-down protection - preventing back-driving or latch-up even if 5V signals are applied. This allows hot-plug capability and safe operation during power sequencing, as confirmed by absolute maximum ratings and Ioff test data.
Does 74LVC573AMTR support true bidirectional data flow like a transceiver?
No. It is a unidirectional octal latch: data flows only from D inputs to Q outputs. While OE enables/disables Q drivers, there is no internal path from Q to D, nor any receiver circuitry. For bidirectional bus interfaces, external direction control logic or dedicated transceivers (e.g., 74LVC245) must be used alongside this device.
