74LVX374MTCX

Overview

The Fairchild Semiconductor 74LVX374MTCX is an octal D-type flip-flop with three-state outputs, manufactured using low-voltage CMOS technology. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2V to 3.6V and supports data rates up to 55MHz. The device features non-inverting outputs and is housed in a 20-TSSOP package with a width of 4.40mm. It functions as a bus driver with single-ended inputs and outputs, operating reliably across a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Octal D-type flip-flop architecture with three-state outputs for efficient bus driving applications
• Low-voltage CMOS construction enabling operation between 2V and 3.6V supply rails
• Non-inverting output polarity ensuring direct signal transmission without phase inversion

Applications

• High-density memory buffer implementations
• Clock distribution circuits requiring multiple synchronized outputs
• Portable computing equipment utilizing low-power logic families

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or certified suppliers. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead-free certification prior to procurement. Ensure the TSSOP-20 package matches design requirements. Check for moisture sensitivity level 1 handling instructions during storage and assembly processes to maintain device integrity.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring eight-bit parallel data storage with tri-state control. Consider the 55MHz maximum frequency limit for timing-critical paths. Evaluate the 2V minimum supply voltage against system power constraints. The 20-TSSOP footprint must align with PCB layout specifications and thermal management strategies.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 74LVX series of low-voltage logic devices. It complements other octal flip-flops and bus drivers within the Fairchild portfolio. The device integrates standard D-type functionality optimized for modern low-power digital systems. It serves as a foundational building block for complex sequential logic architectures.

Replacement Considerations

MC74LVX374DTR2G by onsemi offers parameter equivalence. SN74AHC374PWR by Texas Instruments provides alternative sourcing options. Verify pin compatibility and electrical characteristics before substituting components in existing designs.
