Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '96' indicates reel packaging when ordering. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to integration. Ensure the component meets the required operating temperature range for the target application environment. Cross-reference the datasheet revision to confirm pinout and electrical characteristics match design requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring dual JK functionality with TTL-compatible inputs. The HCT series ensures compatibility with standard 5V logic families while maintaining low power dissipation. Consider the SOIC-14 package constraints for PCB layout and thermal management. Verify that the 60 MHz clock speed meets the system timing requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Texas Instruments 74HCT73 series, which are dual JK flip-flops designed for high-speed digital applications. The 74HCT series bridges the gap between HC and standard TTL logic, offering improved noise immunity and lower power consumption compared to older technologies while maintaining compatible input thresholds.
