The SN74LVTH374PWR from Texas Instruments is a high-performance, octal edge-triggered D-type flip-flop integrated circuit. This device is designed for 3.3V VCC operation but has the capability to operate with a 5V tolerant input for interfacing with 5V logic levels. The SN74LVTH374PWR is part of the LVTH family, which offers low-voltage, high-speed operation compatible with LVTTL and LVCMOS technologies.

Key Features

• Edge-Triggered D-Type Flip-Flops: The flip-flops in SN74LVTH374PWR are edge-triggered, capturing data on the rising edge of the clock signal, which allows for reliable and predictable data synchronization.
• 3-State Outputs: The outputs of the device can be placed in a high-impedance state, which is essential for bus-oriented systems where multiple devices may need to connect to the same bus without interference.
• Low Voltage and High-Speed Operation: This device is optimized for low-voltage operation, ensuring low power consumption while maintaining high-speed performance.
• 5V Tolerant Inputs: Inputs can handle 5V signals without damage, making this device suitable for mixed-voltage applications and providing design flexibility.
• Support for Live Insertion and Withdrawal: The IC supports live insertion and withdrawal capabilities, which minimizes glitches on the data bus during hot plugging.
• Power-Up 3-State: The device has a power-up 3-state feature that prevents bus contention until the power supply has stabilized.
• Low Power Consumption: The SN74LVTH374PWR is designed for low power dissipation, yet still offers high-speed operation.
