Detailed Description

These 9-bit flip-flops feature 3-state outputs designed specifically for driving highly capacitive or relatively low-impedance loads. These devices are particularly suitable for implementing wider buffer registers, I/O ports, bidirectional bus drivers, parity bus interfacing, and working registers.
With the clock-enable (CLKEN) input low, the nine D-type edge-triggered flip-flops enter data on the low-to-high transitions of the clock (CLK) input. Taking CLKEN high disables the clock buffer, latching the outputs. The 74AS823 has noninverting data (D) inputs. Taking the clear (CLR) input low causes the nine Q outputs to go low independently of the clock.
A buffered output-enable (OE) input can be used to place the nine outputs in either a normal logic state (high or low logic level) or the high-impedance state. In the high-impedance state, the outputs neither load nor drive the bus lines significantly. The high-impedance state and increased drive provide the capability to drive bus lines without interface or pullup components.
OE does not affect the internal operation of the flip-flops. Old data can be retained or new data can be entered while the outputs are in the high-impedance state. The 74AS823 is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C.
