Functional Description
The ’FCT373 contains eight D-type latches with TRI-STATE
output buffers. When the Latch Enable (LE) input is HIGH,
data on the D
latches are transparent, i.e., a latch output will change state
each time its D input changes. When LE is LOW, the latches
store the information that was present on the D inputs a
setup time preceding the HIGH-to-LOW transition of LE. The
TRI-STATE buffers are controlled by the Output Enable (OE)
input. When OE is LOW, the buffers are in the bi-state mode.
When OE is HIGH the buffers are in the high impedance
mode but this does not interfere with entering new data into
the latches.
