What the 1ns propagation delay means for the bus
The 1ns propagation delay adds minimal hold time to the bus. Compared to the 74FCT573 with 8.5ns delay, this latch leaves more margin in a 10 ns cycle.
Supply voltage and drive: 1.8V logic compatibility
The 1.65V minimum supply allows operation on a 1.8V rail without a level shifter. The 24mA output drive handles multiple loads on a short backplane trace.
Lifecycle and compliance
It is ROHS3 compliant, which clears it for EU and California markets without exemption paperwork. For a production BOM, this is a stable line item with no imminent last-time-buy risk.
