Product Description

The SN74AC574N is encapsulated in a 20-pin plastic dual-in-line package (PDIP) that ensures easy integration into a wide range of electronic systems. It is designed to operate with a supply voltage ranging from 2 V to 6 V, which makes it suitable for interfacing with both TTL and CMOS logic levels. The device also features a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, providing robust performance across various environmental conditions.

Each flip-flop has independent data (D), clock (CLK), and output enable (OE) inputs, along with Q and Q̅ outputs. The flip-flops capture data on the rising edge of the clock signal, ensuring precise synchronization in high-speed data systems. The 3-state outputs allow for connection to a bus-structured system and help to minimize bus contention issues by placing the outputs in a high-impedance state when not in use.

With its quick setup and hold times, the SN74AC574N is an excellent choice for applications that require high-speed data storage, such as computer systems, data communication equipment, and digital signal processors. Its robust design and advanced features ensure reliable data retention and seamless integration into complex digital circuits.
