6 Parameter Measurement Information
Phase relationships between waveforms were chosen arbitrarily. All input pulses are supplied by generators
having the following characteristics: PRR ≤ 1 MHz, ZO = 50 Ω, tt < 6 ns.
For clock inputs, fmax is measured when the input duty cycle is 50%.
The outputs are measured one at a time with one input transition per measurement.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
These 8-bit addressable latches are designed for general-purpose storage applications in digital systems.
Specific uses include working registers, serial-holding registers, and active-high decoders or demultiplexers.
They are multifunctional devices capable of storing single-line data in eight addressable latches and being a
1-of-8 decoder or demultiplexer with active-high outputs.
Four distinct modes of operation are selectable by controlling the clear (CLR) and enable (G) inputs. In the
addressable-latch mode, data at the data-in terminal is written into the addressed latch. The addressed latch
follows the data input, with all unaddressed latches remaining in their previous states. In the memory mode,
all latches remain in their previous states and are unaffected by the data or address inputs. To eliminate the
possibility of entering erroneous data in the latches, G should be held high (inactive) while the address lines are
changing. In the 1-of-8 decoding or demultiplexing mode, the addressed output follows the level of the D input
with all other outputs low. In the clear mode, all outputs are low and unaffected by the address and data inputs.

8 Power Supply Recommendations
The power supply can be any voltage between the minimum and maximum supply voltage rating located in the
Recommended Operating Conditions. Each VCC terminal should have a good bypass capacitor to prevent power
disturbance. A 0.1-μF capacitor is recommended for this device. It is acceptable to parallel multiple bypass caps
to reject different frequencies of noise. The 0.1-μF and 1-μF capacitors are commonly used in parallel. The
bypass capacitor should be installed as close to the power terminal as possible for best results.
9 Layout
9.1 Layout Guidelines
When using multiple-input and multiple-channel logic devices inputs must not ever be left floating. In many
cases, functions or parts of functions of digital logic devices are unused; for example, when only two inputs of a
triple-input AND gate are used or only 3 of the 4 buffer gates are used. Such unused input pins must not be left
unconnected because the undefined voltages at the outside connections result in undefined operational states.
All unused inputs of digital logic devices must be connected to a logic high or logic low voltage, as defined by the
input voltage specifications, to prevent them from floating. The logic level that must be applied to any particular
unused input depends on the function of the device. Generally, the inputs are tied to GND or VCC, whichever
makes more sense for the logic function or is more convenient.

10 Device and Documentation Support
TI offers an extensive line of development tools. Tools and software to evaluate the performance of the device,
generate code, and develop solutions are listed below.
10.1 Receiving Notification of Documentation Updates
To receive notification of documentation updates, navigate to the device product folder on ti.com. Click on
Subscribe to updates to register and receive a weekly digest of any product information that has changed. For
change details, review the revision history included in any revised document.
10.2 Support Resources
TI E2E™ support forums are an engineer's go-to source for fast, verified answers and design help — straight
from the experts. Search existing answers or ask your own question to get the quick design help you need.
Linked content is provided "AS IS" by the respective contributors. They do not constitute TI specifications and do
not necessarily reflect TI's views; see TI's Terms of Use.
10.3 Trademarks
TI E2E™ is a trademark of Texas Instruments.
All trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
10.4 Electrostatic Discharge Caution
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled
with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may
be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published
specifications.
