Texas Instruments SN74AHC374PW Octal D-Type Flip-Flop

The Texas Instruments SN74AHC374PW is a high-performance, octal edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with a clear function, encapsulated in a 20-pin TSSOP (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package). This integrated circuit is designed for high-speed, low-power operations, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications in modern digital systems.

Key Features:

• Logic Type: D-Type Flip-Flop
• Number of Circuits: 8
• Output Type: Tri-State Non-Inverted
• Propagation Delay Time: 13ns at 5V
• Supply Voltage: 2V to 5.5V
• Operating Temperature: -40°C to 85°C
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Package / Case: 20-TSSOP

The SN74AHC374PW device features eight D-type flip-flops with tri-state non-inverted outputs for bus-oriented applications. Each flip-flop has individual clear and clock inputs and Q outputs. The clear input can terminate the output without regard to the clock signal, and when the clear input is low, it sets the Q output low on the next positive-going transition of the clock.

With a wide operating voltage range of 2V to 5.5V, the SN74AHC374PW is versatile for interfacing with various logic levels and is compatible with TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic). The low-power consumption and fast propagation delay make it suitable for battery-operated and high-speed systems, respectively.

Manufactured with Texas Instruments' advanced silicon-gate CMOS technology, it provides the high-speed operation similar to equivalent Bipolar Schottky TTL while maintaining the CMOS low power dissipation. The device's robust construction ensures reliable performance even in demanding environments, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.

The SN74AHC374PW is commonly used in data storage, retrieval systems, and working as a buffer or memory register in digital circuits. Its small form factor and surface-mount design allow for efficient use of PCB space, making it a practical choice for compact electronic assemblies.
