Procurement Notes

When requesting a quote for SN74HC373, buyers should confirm the manufacturer, package or case, required quantity, target date code, compliance documents, packing method, destination country and expected delivery schedule.

If alternatives are acceptable, buyers should share the approved vendor list, required electrical or optical limits, package constraints and qualification requirements. Any alternative part should be reviewed by the buyer's engineering team before production use.

For analog and signal-chain sourcing, supply voltage, bandwidth, accuracy, noise level, package, temperature grade, input/output configuration and qualification requirements should be verified before approval.

FAQ

What function does the SN74HC373 provide?

The SN74HC373 is specified as an 8-bit transparent D-type latch with 3-state outputs. With OE low and LE high, Q follows D. With OE low and LE low, Q holds the previous state.

What supply voltage range is recommended?

The recommended operating supply range for the SN74HC373 is 2 V minimum, 5 V nominal, and 6 V maximum. The absolute maximum supply voltage rating is -0.5 V to 7 V.

How does the high-impedance output mode work?

The function table specifies Q equals Z when OE is high. In this high-impedance output mode, LE and D are don't-care inputs according to the extracted datasheet facts.
