description
These 20-bit latches feature 3-state outputs
designed specifically for driving highly capacitive
or relatively low-impedance loads. They are
particularly suitable for implementing buffer
registers, I/O ports, bidirectional bus drivers, and
working registers.
The ’ABT16841 can be used as two 10-bit latches or one 20-bit latch. The 20 transparent D-type latches provide
true data at the outputs. While the latch-enable (1LE or 2LE) input is high, the Q outputs of the corresponding
10-bit latch follow the D inputs. When LE is taken low, the Q outputs are latched at the levels set up at the D
inputs.
A buffered output-enable (1OE or 2OE) input can be used to place the outputs of the corresponding 10-bit latch
in either a normal logic state (high or low logic levels) or a high-impedance state. In the high-impedance state,
the outputs neither load nor drive the bus lines significantly.
The output-enable input does not affect the internal operation of the latches. Old data can be retained or new
data can be entered while the outputs are in the high-impedance state.
