Product details
Overview
74LVQ373TTR from STMicroelectronics is a low-voltage CMOS octal D-type latch with 3-state non-inverting outputs, designed for 3.3V bus interface and data latching in low-noise, low-power systems. It features 5.8 ns typical propagation delay at VCC = 3.3 V, symmetrical 12 mA output drive (|IOH| = IOL), and operates across 2 V to 3.6 V supply range.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVQ373TTR datasheet, 74LVQ373TTR pinout, 74LVQ373TTR application, or 74LVQ373TTR equivalent, key selection criteria include its TTL-compatible outputs, 75 Ω transmission line drive capability, latch enable (LE) and output enable (OE) control logic, and -55°C to +125°C industrial temperature rating.
Technical Context
The device implements an edge-triggered latch function controlled by LE: when LE is high, Q outputs follow D inputs; when LE transitions low, Q latches the instantaneous D value. OE independently controls 3-state output impedance - low enables normal logic levels, high forces high-Z state.
It uses sub-micron C2MOS technology with double-layer metal wiring, delivering 4 µA max ICC at 25°C, 2 kV ESD immunity on all pins, and guaranteed PCI bus levels at 24 mA sink/source. Propagation delays tPLH and tPHL are balanced (≤1 ns skew), supporting precise timing in synchronous bus architectures.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.0 V to 3.6 V - supports mixed-voltage 3.3 V systems with 1.2 V data retention during standby |
| Propagation Delay (tPD) | 5.8 ns (typ.) at VCC = 3.3 V - enables ≤172 MHz maximum data throughput in latch-controlled paths |
| Output Drive Strength | ±12 mA (min) at VCC = 3.0 V - ensures robust 75 Ω transmission line termination without external resistors |
| Quiescent Current | 4 µA (max) at TA = 25°C - reduces static power in always-on control logic and battery-backed interfaces |
| Input/Output Capacitance | CIN = 4 pF, COUT = 8 pF - minimizes capacitive loading on driving sources and downstream receivers |
| Dynamic Output Noise (VOLP) | 0.4 V (typ.) at VCC = 3.3 V - limits ground bounce and crosstalk in dense PCB layouts |
| Operating Temperature | -55°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive under-hood, industrial motor control, and telecom infrastructure use |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-20 package (JEDEC MO-153, 6.5 mm × 4.4 mm × 1.05 mm height) with 0.65 mm pitch; lead-free and RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OE | Active-low 3-state output enable - decouples latch outputs from bus during arbitration or idle cycles |
| 2,5,6,9,12,15,16,19 | Q0–Q7 | Non-inverting latched outputs - drive bidirectional data buses with controlled slew and impedance matching |
| 3,4,7,8,13,14,17,18 | D0–D7 | Data inputs - accept TTL-level signals and latch on LE falling edge with 0 ns setup/hold at 3.3 V |
| 11 | LE | Latch enable - synchronous sampling control; rising edge insensitive, latching occurs on falling transition |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference - dedicated low-inductance return path for output switching currents |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply - powers internal logic and output drivers; bypassing required per 100 nF near pin 20 |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Pin- and function-compatible with 74 series 373 | Direct drop-in replacement in legacy 3.3 V designs without layout or firmware changes |
| 75 Ω transmission line drive | Eliminates need for external series termination resistors on high-speed parallel buses |
| Balanced tPLH/tPHL propagation delays | Reduces timing skew between bits in byte-wide data paths, easing setup/hold margin analysis |
| 2 kV HBM ESD protection | Enables handling and assembly without special ESD precautions in standard manufacturing lines |
| Low noise VOLP (0.4 V typ.) | Minimizes simultaneous switching noise (SSN) in multi-latch configurations sharing common VCC/GND |
Applications
| PCI Bus Interface | Industrial PLC I/O Module |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type latch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC373APWR | Higher ICC (10 µA max), wider VCC range (1.65–3.6 V), no guaranteed 24 mA PCI drive | Optimized for ultra-low-voltage portable systems; lacks 75 Ω line drive spec | Select when operating below 2.0 V or requiring lower VIL thresholds |
| 74ALVC373PW | Faster tPD (3.3 ns typ.), higher IOL (24 mA min), but narrower temp range (-40°C to +85°C) | Suited for commercial-grade high-speed test fixtures, not extended-temp industrial use | Select when speed >125 MHz timing closure is critical and ambient stays within commercial range |
Compared with SN74LVC373APWR and 74ALVC373PW, the 74LVQ373TTR uniquely balances industrial temperature range, 75 Ω line drive, and ultra-low quiescent current - making it optimal for ruggedized 3.3 V bus buffering where reliability and noise immunity outweigh raw speed.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current the 74LVQ373TTR can source or sink per pin?
The device guarantees ±12 mA output drive per pin at VCC = 3.0 V, with absolute maximum ratings allowing ±50 mA short-term. At 3.3 V, VOH remains ≥2.58 V and VOL ≤0.44 V under 12 mA load, meeting PCI bus level requirements. Continuous operation above 12 mA risks exceeding thermal limits in TSSOP-20 packaging.
Does the 74LVQ373TTR support hot insertion or live bus swapping?
No - while it features 2 kV HBM ESD protection and high-impedance outputs when OE is high, the device lacks explicit hot-swap circuitry such as slew-rate limiting or undervoltage lockout. Insertion into a powered bus may cause transient current spikes or bus contention if LE/OE states are undefined during plug-in; external sequencing or isolation is required.
Can the 74LVQ373TTR operate reliably at 1.8 V supply?
No - the recommended operating voltage is 2.0 V to 3.6 V. At 1.8 V, DC parameters like VIH (2.0 V min) and VOL (0.44 V max at 12 mA) fall outside specification, and AC performance degrades significantly. The 1.2 V data retention mode applies only to static storage, not active latching or 3-state operation.
How does the 74LVQ373TTR handle simultaneous switching of all eight outputs?
Its low dynamic noise (VOLP = 0.4 V typ.) and symmetrical output impedance minimize ground bounce during full-bus transitions. However, total simultaneous switching current must stay within ICC/IGND limits (±400 mA); with 12 mA per output, all eight switching concurrently draws ~96 mA - well within safe margin, provided proper PCB decoupling (≥100 nF near VCC/GND) is implemented.
