Product details
Overview
JM38510/32503BRA from Texas Instruments is a military-grade octal D-type transparent latch with 3-state bus-driving outputs, designed for high-reliability data latching in avionics and defense systems. It features TTL-compatible inputs, 20-pin CDIP package, –55°C to +125°C operating range, and enables direct bus interfacing without pull-up components in legacy 5 V digital systems.
For engineers reviewing the JM38510/32503BRA datasheet, JM38510/32503BRA pinout, JM38510/32503BRA application, or JM38510/32503BRA equivalent, this device serves as a drop-in replacement for SN54LS373J in MIL-PRF-38535-compliant designs requiring radiation-hardened, temperature-stable latching with hysteresis-free enable control and verified DC parametric testing across full military temperature range.
Technical Context
The JM38510/32503BRA implements eight independent transparent D-type latches with common clock (C) and output-control (OC) inputs. While C is high, Q outputs follow D inputs; when C goes low, outputs retain the last data state. OC independently places all eight outputs in high-impedance mode without affecting internal latch states.
It belongs to the 'LS logic family and uses standard TTL input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max), P-N-P input structure for reduced DC loading, and totem-pole 3-state outputs capable of sourcing –2.6 mA and sinking 24 mA at VCC = 4.75–5.25 V. No Schmitt-trigger hysteresis is present on C or OC - that feature applies only to 'S373/'S374 variants.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | 'LS (Low-power Schottky) TTL - ensures compatibility with legacy 5 V TTL systems and predictable noise margins. |
| Function | Octal transparent D-type latch - provides parallel data capture synchronized to level-sensitive clock (C) input. |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to +125°C - qualified per MIL-PRF-38535 Class B for extended environmental reliability in aerospace and defense platforms. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.75 V to 5.25 V - tightly regulated range ensures stable timing and output drive across temperature extremes. |
| Output Drive | Sinks 24 mA / sources –2.6 mA - sufficient to drive standard 50 Ω transmission lines or multiple TTL inputs without external buffers. |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 18 ns (max) - supports reliable operation up to 35 MHz system clock frequency with defined setup/hold timing. |
| Package | 20-pin Ceramic Dual-In-Line Package (CDIP, J) - hermetically sealed, leaded, and suitable for high-vacuum and high-vibration environments. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 20-pin Ceramic Dual-In-Line Package (CDIP, J), 0.300-inch wide body, through-hole mounting, hermetic ceramic construction with solder-dip leads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OC (Output Control) | Active-low signal enabling/disabling all eight 3-state outputs; does not affect internal latch state. |
| 2–9 | D1–D8 (Data Inputs) | Asynchronous parallel data inputs feeding respective latch inputs; TTL-compatible voltage thresholds. |
| 10 | GND | Signal ground reference for all inputs, outputs, and supply return path. |
| 11–18 | Q1–Q8 (Outputs) | Tri-state buffered outputs; high-impedance when OC = HIGH, otherwise follow latched D values. |
| 19 | C (Clock) | Level-sensitive enable input; Q follows D while C = HIGH; latches D value when C transitions LOW. |
| 20 | VCC | +5 V power supply pin; must be decoupled locally with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor near the package. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Full parallel access | Simultaneous loading of all eight bits via D1–D8 eliminates serialization overhead in register file or I/O port applications. |
| 3-state bus driving | Enables direct connection to shared data buses without interface logic or pull-up resistors, reducing component count and board area. |
| MIL-PRF-38535 Class B compliance | Guarantees 100% electrical test across full temperature range, burn-in, and lot traceability for mission-critical deployments. |
| Buffered control inputs | C and OC inputs are internally buffered to reduce capacitive loading on upstream drivers and improve fan-out capability. |
| P-N-P input structure | Minimizes DC current draw from data source drivers, preserving signal integrity and reducing power dissipation in dense bus systems. |
Applications
| Avionics Data Acquisition | Defense System I/O Expansion |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal transparent latch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN54LS373J | Same logic function, pinout, and CDIP package; however, not processed to MIL-PRF-38535 Class B - lacks 100% screening, burn-in, and lot traceability. | Acceptable for non-mission-critical prototypes or ground-test equipment where full qualification is not mandated. | Select SN54LS373J only when cost sensitivity outweighs long-term reliability requirements and radiation exposure is negligible. |
| JM38510/32502BRA | Identical package, temperature range, and qualification level, but implements edge-triggered flip-flop ('LS374) functionality instead of transparent latch ('LS373). | Required where synchronous, clock-edge-aligned data capture is needed rather than level-sensitive latching. | Choose JM38510/32502BRA when system architecture mandates positive-edge sampling - not a functional substitute for JM38510/32503BRA. |
Compared with SN54LS373J, JM38510/32503BRA delivers assured reliability through full MIL-PRF-38535 Class B testing, while JM38510/32502BRA offers identical qualification but incompatible timing behavior - making neither a drop-in replacement without logic redesign.

FAQ
What logic family and voltage levels does JM38510/32503BRA support?
JM38510/32503BRA is a 'LS (Low-power Schottky) TTL device with nominal 5 V operation. It accepts VIH ≥ 2.0 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V, operates from 4.75 V to 5.25 V, and drives outputs compatible with standard TTL loads - ensuring seamless integration into legacy 5 V digital systems without level-shifting.
Is JM38510/32503BRA pin-compatible with commercial SN74LS373 variants?
Yes, JM38510/32503BRA uses the same 20-pin CDIP (J) footprint and identical pinout as SN54LS373J and SN74LS373N. Signal assignments - including D1–D8, Q1–Q8, C, OC, VCC, and GND - match exactly, enabling mechanical and electrical interchangeability in through-hole layouts.
Does JM38510/32503BRA include Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity?
No. JM38510/32503BRA is based on the 'LS373 variant, which uses standard TTL input buffers without hysteresis. Schmitt-trigger inputs with ~400 mV hysteresis are exclusive to the 'S373 and 'S374 families - confirmed by the SDLS165B datasheet's explicit functional differentiation.
