The 74LV373DB,118 is a 8-bit transparent latch, which is a special type of integrated circuit from the range of latches. A latch is one of the most essential device types in digital electronics, where information is stored within a circuit. Latches come in various forms with the key defining feature being that they are devices that can store state information that is still present in the absence of the control signal. The 74LV373DB,118 is a useful component when it comes to building digital circuits or even interfacing an analog device to the digital world. It provides transistors with the needed control logic, allowing them to work together with digital devices in a way that is not likely to drift over time.

The 74LV373DB,118 is an 8-bit latch meaning it has 8 pins for data input and 8 pins for data output. Each pin has the same function, send and receiving data information, the difference being its voltage level. All the pins offer a 3.3V maximum voltage, the input pins being slightly more tolerant than the output pins. What makes this particular latch so important is its transparent operation, meaning there is no need for a clock signal, once a new data is connected/carried to the input pin the logic level will automatically be reflected on the data output pin.

This type of latch is especially useful when dealing with an asynchronous signal, since the output can switch as soon as the input is satisfied. Other practical applications include memory storage using flip-flops, Digital Logic Gates, or even connecting two or more devices in a circuit. Also the 74LV373DB,118 can be used as a level translator, since the input and output side have different voltage ranges. This will allow the connection between digital devices of different voltage levels.

The working principle of the 74LV373DB,118 is quite simple. It supplies 8-bits of information "0" and "1", depending on the logic level present at the input pin. The output logic level follows the same pattern as the input. It\'s worth mentioning that the output pin voltage will be the same as the input, providing the current source is able to support the current drawn by the driven device.

The 74LV373DB,118 latch is an extremely versatile component that can be used in various applications, allowing TTL or CMOS logic lines to be connected or used as level translators. In addition, it provides an easy way to interface two different circuits, providing a delay-free link in between them. The 74LV373DB,118 is a reliable and cost-effective device, meaning it can be found on many circuit boards, especially those responsible for communications and logic operations.
