Product details
Overview
M74HC533B1R from STMicroelectronics is a high-speed CMOS octal D-type latch with 3-state inverting outputs, designed for bus-oriented data latching and isolation in digital systems. It features 8-bit transparent latching controlled by LE, 3-state output enable (OE), propagation delay of 12 ns (typ. at VCC = 6 V), symmetrical output drive (±6 mA), and operates across 2 V to 6 V. Used in microcontroller address/data bus buffering and memory interface control.
For engineers reviewing the M74HC533B1R datasheet, M74HC533B1R pinout, M74HC533B1R application, or M74HC533B1R equivalent, key selection criteria include latch enable timing (tW(H) = 6 ns min at 6 V), 3-state disable time (tPHZ = 13 ns max), input noise immunity (VNIH/VNIL = 28% VCC min), and DIP-20 package compatibility with legacy 74-series layouts.
Technical Context
The M74HC533B1R implements an 8-bit edge-triggered latch architecture where Q outputs follow D inputs only while LE is HIGH; latching occurs on LE transition to LOW. Its 3-state outputs are actively driven HIGH/LOW when OE is LOW and enter high-impedance (Z) when OE is HIGH - enabling bidirectional bus sharing without external logic.
All inputs include silicon gate C2MOS ESD protection, and output drive capability is balanced (|IOH| = IOL ≥ 6 mA at VCC = 4.5 V and 6 V), ensuring matched rise/fall times (tPLH ≅ tPHL) and low skew in synchronous bus environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2 V to 6 V - supports mixed-voltage system interfacing (e.g., 3.3 V MCU with 5 V peripherals) |
| tPD (Propagation Delay) | 12 ns (typ. at VCC = 6 V) - enables ≤40 MHz bus operation with margin for setup/hold |
| IOL / IOH | ≥6 mA (min at VCC = 4.5 V) - drives standard TTL loads and multiple CMOS inputs without fanout limitation |
| VNIH / VNIL | 28% VCC (min) - provides robust noise rejection against ground bounce and crosstalk in dense PCB layouts |
| ICC (Quiescent) | 4 µA (max at TA = 25°C) - enables ultra-low static power in battery-backed or always-on control logic |
| Output Leakage (IOZ) | ±5 µA (max at TA = 85°C) - ensures reliable high-Z state retention during hot-swap or partial power-down |
| Input Capacitance | 5 pF (typ.) - minimizes loading on upstream drivers and preserves signal integrity at high frequencies |
Pinout & Package
Package: Plastic DIP-20 (0.300" wide), JEDEC MS-001, 2.54 mm pitch, through-hole mounting.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OE (Active LOW) | Global 3-state control: LOW enables normal Q outputs; HIGH forces all Q0–Q7 into high-impedance |
| 2,5,6,9,12,15,16,19 | Q0–Q7 (Inverting Outputs) | Inverted latched data outputs; drive bus lines only when OE = LOW and LE has latched |
| 3,4,7,8,13,14,17,18 | D0–D7 (Data Inputs) | Asynchronous data inputs; sampled and inverted at Q when LE transitions LOW |
| 11 | LE (Latch Enable) | Edge-sensitive control: rising-to-falling transition captures Dn and holds Qn until next LE pulse |
| 10 | GND | Reference ground for all input thresholds and output voltage levels |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply rail; must be decoupled locally (0.1 µF ceramic) due to fast switching current transients |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Pin-compatible with 74LS533 | Direct drop-in replacement for legacy TTL bus latches without redesigning PCB layout or logic timing |
| Symmetrical output drive | Matched |IOH| and IOL ensure equal rise/fall times (tTLH ≈ tTHL), reducing bus skew in multi-drop systems |
| Balanced propagation delays | tPLH ≅ tPHL guarantees consistent timing margins for both logic transitions, simplifying timing analysis |
| Wide voltage operation | 2–6 V range allows interoperability across 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic families without level shifters |
| High noise immunity | VNIH/VNIL = 28% VCC minimum exceeds typical 74HC series (20%), improving reliability in noisy industrial environments |
Applications
| Microcontroller Bus Interface | Memory Address Latching |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Isolating and latching 8-bit address/data bus signals between an 8-bit MCU and external SRAM or peripheral ICs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as a transparent latch during address phase, then holds stable address while data transfers occur; OE controls bus contention. Use Value: Eliminates need for separate address strobe logic and prevents bus conflicts during read/write cycles with shared D/A lines. |
Use Scenario: Capturing and holding lower-byte address bits (A0–A7) for multiplexed address/data buses in 8080/8085-style systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Latches address on LE falling edge; outputs remain stable during entire memory access cycle, independent of data bus activity. Use Value: Enables use of fewer pins on legacy CPUs and reduces PCB trace count via address/data multiplexing. |
| Industrial I/O Expansion | Legacy System Upgrade |
|
Use Scenario: Buffering and isolating parallel I/O port signals in PLC modules where field-side noise requires robust input thresholds. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides noise-immune latching of sensor status bits before transmission to controller; OE enables hot-swap-safe disconnection. Use Value: Achieves 28% VCC noise margin - 40% higher than standard HC logic - reducing false triggers in electrically harsh environments. |
Use Scenario: Replacing obsolete 74LS533 in aging test equipment or instrumentation where board space and footprint are fixed. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Direct functional and pin-for-pin substitute with lower ICC, wider VCC, and improved AC performance. Use Value: Extends product lifecycle without PCB rework, while cutting quiescent power by >95% versus LS-TTL equivalents. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal latch with 3-state output applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HC573N | Non-inverting outputs; identical pinout except Q0–Q7 polarity; tPD = 19 ns (typ. at 6 V) | Requires logic inversion in downstream circuitry if inverting behavior is required for bus timing | Select when system design assumes non-inverted latch outputs and timing budget allows +7 ns delay |
| 74VHC533N | Faster tPD = 7.5 ns (typ. at 5 V); higher ICC = 20 µA (max); same DIP-20 package and pinout | Better suited for high-frequency bus arbitration but increases static power in low-power standby modes | Prefer for >50 MHz bus clocking where propagation delay dominates over quiescent current |
Compared with SN74HC573N and 74VHC533N, the M74HC533B1R offers optimal balance of low ICC (4 µA), guaranteed inverting output polarity, and sufficient speed (12 ns) for sub-40 MHz embedded bus systems - making it ideal for cost-sensitive, power-constrained legacy upgrades.

FAQ
Is M74HC533B1R compatible with 5 V TTL logic inputs?
Yes - its VIH(min) = 3.15 V and VIL(max) = 1.35 V at VCC = 4.5 V meet TTL input thresholds. When operated at VCC = 5 V, it reliably accepts standard TTL output levels (2.0–3.5 V HIGH, 0–0.8 V LOW) without level shifting.
What is the maximum capacitive load this device can drive reliably?
Rated for CL ≤ 50 pF per output in AC specs, but DC drive strength (IOL/IOH ≥ 6 mA) supports up to 100 pF with acceptable tPLH/tPHL degradation (<2× spec). For >50 pF, add local series termination or reduce trace length to maintain timing margins.
Does M74HC533B1R require external pull-up resistors on OE or LE?
No - OE and LE are CMOS inputs with II ≤ ±1 µA (max), so they may be driven directly from MCU GPIO or other logic outputs. Pull-ups are unnecessary unless open-drain driving or fail-safe default states are required in system-level fault handling.
Can M74HC533B1R operate at -40°C ambient temperature?
Yes - its specified operating temperature range is -55°C to +125°C. At -40°C, all DC parameters (VIH, VOL, etc.) and AC timing (tPD, tPZH) remain within published limits, validated per STMicroelectronics' industrial-grade qualification testing.
