JimB Super Moderator Most Helpful Member Mar 19, 2005 #3 LD drives the input latch. When LD is 1 (5v), the inputs are decoded and the output displays whatever the input represents, and will change when the inputs change. When LD is set to 0 (0v), the inputs are latched, the output will display the the last value of the inputs and will not change when the inputs change. JimB
