CD74FCT374E Octal D-Type Flip-Flop from Texas Instruments

The CD74FCT374E is a high-performance CMOS Octal D-Type Flip-Flop with a clear function, designed and manufactured by Texas Instruments. This integrated circuit is part of the FCT series, which is known for its fast-edge rate performance due to a combination of advanced CMOS technology and innovative design techniques.

This particular device features eight edge-triggered, D-type flip-flops with individual D inputs and Q outputs. The flip-flop transitions occur on the positive-going edge of the clock (CLK) input signal when the clock-enable (CLKEN) input is in the logical "low" state. A logical "high" on the CLKEN inhibits the flip-flops from changing states, thus providing a hold function. Additionally, a clear (CLR) input is provided to directly clear all flip-flops to a logical "low" level.

The CD74FCT374E is characterized for operation from -55°C to 125°C, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including industrial, automotive, and telecommunications. Its fast propagation delay times and low power consumption make it an ideal choice for high-speed memory address latching, data storage and transfer, as well as other high-performance applications that require reliable and efficient flip-flop operations.

Key features of the CD74FCT374E include:

• Eight D-type flip-flops in a single package
• Edge-triggered from a positive-going clock transition
• Wide operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C)
• Clear function for direct clearing of flip-flops
• High-speed operation with fast propagation delays
• Low power consumption
• Available in a standard 20-pin package

With its robust design and high-speed performance, the CD74FCT374E is an excellent choice for designers who require the reliability and quality that Texas Instruments is known for. Whether used in complex data systems or simple logic control environments, this octal D-type flip-flop is engineered to meet the demands of modern electronic applications.
