The 'ACT564 are octal D-type edge-triggered flip-flops thatfeature 3-state outputs designed specifically for driving highlycapacitive or relatively low-impedance loads. They are particularlysuitable for implementing buffer registers, I/O ports, bidirectionalbus drivers, and working registers.
On the positive transition of the clock (CLK) input, the Q\outputs are set to the complements of the logic levels set up at thedata (D) inputs.
A buffered output-enable (
) input places the eight outputs in either a normallogic state (high or low logic levels) or the high-impedance state.In the high-impedance state, the outputs neither load nor drive thebus lines significantly. The high-impedance state and increased driveprovide the capability to drive bus lines without interface or pullupcomponents.
does not affectinternal operations of the flip-flops. Old data can be retained ornew data can be entered while the outputs are in the high-impedancestate.
The SN54ACT564 is characterized for operation over the fullmilitary temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. TheSN74ACT564 is characterized for operation from -40°C to85°C.
