Product details
Overview
PI74LPT573AS from Pericom Semiconductor is an 8-bit transparent latch with 3-state outputs, designed for bus-oriented data latching in mixed-voltage systems. It supports dual-supply operation (2.7V–3.6V VCC), accepts 3.3V or 5.0V inputs, drives 3.3V buses or interfaces to 5V buses, and delivers ±24 mA output drive. Used in address/data bus isolation and level translation between 3.3V controllers and legacy 5V peripherals.
For engineers reviewing the PI74LPT573AS datasheet, PI74LPT573AS pinout, PI74LPT573AS application, or PI74LPT573AS equivalent, key selection criteria include 3-state enable timing (tPZH/tPHZ ≤ 9.5/6.5 ns), input hysteresis (150 mV), industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), and 5V-tolerant I/O capability in a 20-pin SOIC package.
Technical Context
The PI74LPT573AS implements a synchronous transparent latch architecture where data passes through when Latch Enable (LE) is HIGH and is captured on the falling edge of LE. Its 3-state outputs are controlled independently by an active-low Output Enable (OE), enabling bidirectional bus sharing without contention.
Designed in 0.6 µm CMOS, it features TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VVIH ≥ 2.0 V for I/O pins), clamp diodes (VIK = –0.7 V), and low ground bounce-critical for noise-sensitive digital backplanes and high-speed control buses.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - ensures stable operation across 3.3V nominal supply with ±10% tolerance |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | –0.5 V to +7.0 V - enables direct interfacing with 5V logic without external level shifters |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA - sufficient to drive 50 Ω transmission lines or multiple LS-TTL loads |
| tPLH/tPHL (Dx→Ox) | 1.5 ns / 8.0 ns - supports >100 MHz bus toggle rates in typical load conditions |
| tPZH/tPHZ (OE→Ox) | 1.5 ns / 6.5 ns - allows fast bus turnaround for time-critical arbitration protocols |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded control and communications equipment |
| Input Hysteresis | 150 mV - suppresses noise-induced glitches on noisy PCB traces or long cables |
Pinout & Package
PI74LPT573AS is housed in a 20-pin 300-mil wide plastic SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package, pin-compatible with industry-standard 74-series latches and suitable for wave-solder and reflow assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Power Supply | 3.3V core supply rail; must be decoupled locally to suppress switching noise |
| GND | Ground Reference | Common return path for all I/O and internal logic; requires low-impedance PCB plane |
| D0–D7 | Data Inputs | Asynchronous data inputs tolerant to 5V; hysteresis improves noise immunity |
| O0–O7 | 3-State Outputs | Bus-capable outputs with ±24 mA drive; enter high-Z when OE = HIGH |
| LE | Latch Enable | Active-HIGH control: transparent when HIGH, latches data on falling edge |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-LOW control: disables outputs (high-Z) when HIGH; independent of LE state |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5V-Tolerant I/O | Inputs accept 0–5.5 V; outputs drive 3.3V or interface safely to 5V buses without damage |
| Balanced Output Drive | 24 mA sink and source capability ensures clean signal edges into capacitive or resistive loads |
| Low Ground Bounce | Optimized output stage layout minimizes simultaneous switching noise on shared GND paths |
| Industrial Temp Range | Validated operation from –40°C to +85°C supports deployment in uncontrolled environments |
| Hysteresis on All Inputs | 150 mV threshold margin prevents metastability from slow-rising or noisy control signals |
Applications
| Microprocessor Bus Interface | Memory Address Latching |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Isolating 3.3V CPU address/data bus from legacy 5V peripheral subsystems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Transparent latch synchronizing burst transfers while enabling bus sharing via 3-state control.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 8-bit transparent latch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC573APWR | 3.3V-only I/O (no 5V tolerance); lower ICCQ (1 µA vs. 10 µA typ.) | Not suitable for direct 5V bus interfacing; requires external clamping or level shifters | Select when system uses only 3.3V peripherals and ultra-low static power is critical |
| 74ALVC573MTCX | Higher speed (tPD = 2.5 ns max); no hysteresis; VCC = 1.65–3.6 V | Lacks noise immunity on long traces; not rated for 5V-tolerant operation | Prefer for high-speed, short-trace board designs where EMI is controlled and voltage domains are uniform |
Compared with SN74LVC573APWR and 74ALVC573MTCX, PI74LPT573AS uniquely combines 5V-tolerant I/O, input hysteresis, and industrial temperature support-making it the only choice for robust mixed-voltage bus isolation in harsh environments.

FAQ
Can PI74LPT573AS operate with a 2.5V supply?
No. The device is specified for VCC = 2.7 V to 3.6 V only. At 2.5V, VIH/VIL thresholds and output drive fall outside guaranteed limits per DC Electrical Characteristics table; functionality is not assured and may result in metastability or excessive propagation delay.
Is PI74LPT573AS pin-compatible with standard 74HC573?
Yes-pinout matches 20-pin SOIC 74HC573 (D0–D7, O0–O7, LE, OE, VCC, GND), but electrical behavior differs: PI74LPT573AS has 5V-tolerant inputs, hysteresis, and higher drive strength (±24 mA vs. ±7.8 mA), enabling direct drop-in replacement where voltage translation is needed.
What is the maximum clock frequency supported for LE toggling?
There is no internal clock; LE is asynchronous. Maximum safe LE toggle rate depends on tW(LE) = 6.0 ns minimum pulse width and tSU/tH = 2.0/1.5 ns. For reliable operation, LE should not toggle faster than ~80 MHz in worst-case timing scenarios with full process/voltage/temperature variation.
Does PI74LPT573AS require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on OE or LE?
No-OE and LE have TTL-compatible thresholds and hysteresis, so they can be driven directly from CMOS or TTL outputs. Pull resistors are unnecessary unless the driving source floats during reset; in such cases, a 10 kΩ pull-down on OE ensures default high-Z output state.
