The Intersil 82C83H is a high performance CMOS Octal Latching Buffer manufactured using a self-aligned silicon gate CMOS process (Scaled SAJI IV). The 82C83H provides an 8- bit parallel latch/buffer in a 20 lead pin package. The active high strobe (STB) input allows transparent transfer of data and latches data on the negative transition of this signal. The active low output enable (OE) permits simple interface to microprocessor systems. The 82C83H provides inverted data at the outputs.
