DM74LS279
Quad S-R Latch
General Description
The DM74LS279 consists of four individual and indepen-
dent Set-Reset Latches with active low inputs. Two of the
four latches have an additional S input ANDed with the pri-
mary S input. A LOW on any S input while the R input is
HIGH will be stored in the latch and appear on the corre-
sponding Q output as a HIGH. A LOW on the R input while
the S input is HIGH will clear the Q output to a LOW. Simul-
taneous transition of the R and S inputs from LOW-to-
HIGH will cause the Q output to be indeterminate. Both
inputs are voltage level triggered and are not affected by
transition time of the input data.

Note 1:
For latches with double S inputs:

both S inputs HIGH
L

Note 2:
This output level is pseudo stable; that is, it may not persist when
the S and R inputs return to their inactive (HIGH) level.

Note 3:
The “Absolute Maximum Ratings” are those values beyond which
the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. The device should not be
operated at these limits. The parametric values defined in the Electrical
Characteristics tables are not guaranteed at the absolute maximum ratings.
The “Recommended Operating Conditions” table will define the conditions
for actual device operation.
