ON Semiconductor DM74LS273WM Octal D-Type Flip-Flop

The DM74LS273WM from ON Semiconductor is a high-speed, octal D-type flip-flop with a common clock and clear. This integrated circuit (IC) is designed for use in applications that require the storage of eight bits of data in a single device. The device is part of the 74LS family, which is known for its low-power Schottky technology, offering a good balance between speed and power consumption.

This flip-flop is packaged in a 20-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package, making it suitable for surface-mount technology (SMT) on printed circuit boards (PCBs). The compact form factor allows for efficient use of board space in dense digital systems.

Key Features:

• Logic Type: Octal D-Type Flip-Flop with Clear
• Number of Pins: 20-pin SOIC package
• Operating Voltage Range: 4.75V to 5.25V
• High-Speed Performance: Typical clock frequency of 35MHz
• Low Power Consumption: Utilizes low-power Schottky technology
• Output Drive Capability: Capable of driving 15 LSTTL loads
• Clear Function: Synchronous reset to clear the flip-flop

The DM74LS273WM features eight edge-triggered D-type flip-flops with individual D-type inputs and Q outputs. The common clock (CP) and master reset (MR) inputs allow for synchronous control of all flip-flops. When the MR input is taken high, all Q outputs are simultaneously cleared to a low state, regardless of the clock input.

This device is ideal for use in a wide range of digital applications, including data storage, registers, counters, and buffer storage. The high-speed performance and robust design ensure reliable operation in demanding environments. The DM74LS273WM is a versatile building block for digital systems and is a testament to ON Semiconductor's commitment to providing high-quality, industry-standard logic devices.

Whether you're designing consumer electronics, industrial control systems, or complex computing hardware, the DM74LS273WM offers a practical solution for your digital data storage needs with its proven performance and reliability.
