M74HC259YRM13TR

STMicroelectronics · Latches · SO-16

M74HC259YRM13TR from STMicroelectronics, in a SO-16. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 A input Address input A (LSB of latch-select address). Combined with B and C, selects which of the 8 latches (Q0-Q7) is addressed. CMOS input, VIH >= 0.7VCC, VIL <= 0.3VCC (approx.).
2 B input Address input B (middle bit of latch-select address). Combined with A and C, selects which of the 8 latches (Q0-Q7) is addressed.
3 C input Address input C (MSB of latch-select address). Combined with A and B, selects which of the 8 latches (Q0-Q7) is addressed.
4 Q0 output Latch output 0. Addressed when C=L, B=L, A=L. Push-pull CMOS output,
5 Q1 output Latch output 1. Addressed when C=L, B=L, A=H. Push-pull CMOS output,
6 Q2 output Latch output 2. Addressed when C=L, B=H, A=L. Push-pull CMOS output,
7 Q3 output Latch output 3. Addressed when C=L, B=H, A=H. Push-pull CMOS output,
8 GND power_in Ground (0 V) reference for the device.
9 Q4 output Latch output 4. Addressed when C=H, B=L, A=L. Push-pull CMOS output,
10 Q5 output Latch output 5. Addressed when C=H, B=L, A=H. Push-pull CMOS output,
11 Q6 output Latch output 6. Addressed when C=H, B=H, A=L. Push-pull CMOS output,
12 Q7 output Latch output 7. Addressed when C=H, B=H, A=H. Push-pull CMOS output,
13 D input Serial data input. The logic level on D is transferred to the addressed latch (Q0-Q7) while ENABLE is low, and stored on the positive-going edge of ENABLE.
14 ~{ENABLE} input Latch enable input, active low. When low, data on D flows through to the addressed latch (transparent mode); when high, all latches hold their previous state. Data is latched on the positive-going edge.
15 ~{CLEAR} input Conditional asynchronous reset input, active low. With ENABLE high, taking CLEAR low clears all 8 latches to low. With ENABLE low, all unaddressed latches are cleared while the addressed latch follows D (3-to-8 line decoder mode).
16 VCC power_in Positive supply voltage. Recommended operating range 2.0 V to 6.0 V; absolute maximum 7 V.
