74LVX174MX

Overview

The 74LVX174MX is a single D-type flip-flop integrated circuit manufactured by Fairchild Semiconductor. It features six independent D-type flip-flops with master reset functionality, housed in a 16-SOIC package. The device operates within a voltage range of 2V to 3.6V and utilizes positive edge triggering for data capture. Designed for low power and low noise applications, it provides non-inverted outputs suitable for 3.3V logic systems.
