Product Overview: SN74ACT374DWRG4

The SN74ACT374DWRG4 is a high-performance, octal D-type flip-flop with a clear function, designed and manufactured by Texas Instruments. This integrated circuit is part of the 74ACT family, which is renowned for its high-speed CMOS logic. The device is specifically crafted to address the needs of storage registers, buffer registers, and as an 8-bit array of flip-flops for data storage and transfer applications.

Key Features

• Logic Type: D-Type Flip-Flop
• Number of Bits per Element: 8
• Output Type: Tri-State Non-Inverted
• Function: Standard
• Supply Voltage: 4.5V to 5.5V
• Operating Temperature: -40°C to 85°C
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Package / Case: 20-SOIC (0.295", 7.50mm Width)

The SN74ACT374DWRG4 features eight edge-triggered D-type flip-flops with individual D inputs and Q outputs. The clear (CLR) input is synchronous, ensuring that all flip-flops are simultaneously reset on the low-to-high transition of the clock (CLK) input while CLR is low. This synchronous clear allows the part to be used in high-speed systems where the timing of the clear function is critical.

The device boasts a high drive capability and can handle significant loads with ease. The outputs are tri-state, allowing for increased flexibility in bus-oriented applications. When the output enable (OE) input is high, the outputs are in a high-impedance state, which is essential for interfacing with bus lines in a multi-master environment.

Manufactured with a standard 20-SOIC package, the SN74ACT374DWRG4 is compatible with a wide range of PCB layouts and is suitable for automated surface mount assembly processes. Its robust design ensures reliable operation over a broad temperature range, making it an ideal choice for industrial and commercial applications that demand high-speed and reliable data storage and transfer capabilities.

With its combination of high-speed performance, versatility, and Texas Instruments' commitment to quality, the SN74ACT374DWRG4 is an excellent choice for designers looking to implement efficient and reliable data handling solutions in their electronic systems.
