Hi, I building a project at the minute and have noticed that my store manager has given me the wrong latch for my external memory. He gave me the SN74LS73AN while the one he should of gave me is the SN74LS373AN. I have the HD74LS245P and was wondering if I could use this instead of the SN74LS373AN latch. It says its a octal bus transceiver. Is that the same as a latch. Operating wise it looks the same.
Thanks, Thomas Reilly.
It says its a octal bus transceiver. Is that the same as a latch. Operating wise it looks the same. for a shark and a dolphin "Operating wise it looks the same" which would you rather swim with?
a transceiver and a latch are TOTALLY different animals. you may want to use a 573 instead of the 373 it is the same chip but has a much more convenient pinout. BUT 373 and 573 are the ONLY useable chips.
anyhow Keil is not in hardware, direct non-Keil ;51 questions to 8052.com

So nothing to do with Keil, then?!
"Operating wise it looks the same"
In what way?
Ah right. Just its for a college project and I havin't time to order anymore parts. Thanks for the info.
the wrong latch ... SN74LS73AN evidently you did not even bother to look at the datasheet titled
SN5473, SN54LS73A, SN7473, SN74LS73A DUAL J-K FLIP-FLOPS WITH CLEAR
Yes but anything that starts with SN74LS are similar creatures. And especially so if they also happens to have the same number of pins. And if the digits can be permutated then the two chips must be practically identical...
similar creatures
here in the US you can get two similar packages reading "Dove" one is chocolate and one is soap.
I doubt you will be succesful washing with chocolate, and also doubt you will enjoy eating soap.
