1. General description
The 74HC259; 74HCT259 is an 8-bit addressable latch. The device features four modes
of operation. In the addressable latch mode, data on the D inpu t is written into the latch
addressed by the inputs AO to A3. The addressed latch will follow the data input,
non-addressed latches will retain their previous states. In memory mode, all latches retain
their previous states and are unaffected by the data or addre ss inputs. In the 3-to-8
decoding or demultiplexing mode, the addressed output follows the D input and all other
outputs are LOW. In the reset mode, all outputs are forced LOW and unaffected by the
data or address inputs. Inputs include clamp diodes. This enables the use of curren t
limiting resistors to interface inputs to voltages in excess of VCC.
2. Features and benefits
Combined demultiplexer and 8-bit latch
Serial-to-parallel capability
Output from each storage bit available
