Additional Details

The PI74ALVCH16374A operates from a supply voltage of 2.3V to 3.6V. It features a typical propagation delay of around 3 ns, enabling high-frequency operation. The 3-state outputs allow the device to be effectively disconnected from the bus when not in use, preventing bus contention. The positive-edge triggered clock ensures that data is captured only on the rising edge of the clock signal. The operating temperature range is typically -40°C to +85°C. The device is available in various surface-mount packages, such as TSSOP and QVSOP, facilitating easy integration into modern electronic designs.
