MM74C175N

Flip Flops Overview

The MM74C175N is a quad D-type flip-flop manufactured by Fairchild Semiconductor in the CMOS logic family. It features four independent positive-edge-triggered flip-flops with direct clear inputs and complementary outputs for each stage. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 3V to 18V, supporting standard TTL-compatible input levels. Packaged in a 16-pin DIP, it is designed for applications requiring data storage, shift registers, and pattern generation, offering high noise immunity and low power consumption typical of CMOS technology.

Flip Flops Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer marking matches Fairchild Semiconductor or authorized successors. Confirm the package type is 16-pin DIP (PDIP-16). Check datasheet specifications for operating temperature range and supply voltage limits to ensure compatibility with the target circuit design before procurement.

Flip Flops Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad D-type flip-flop with complementary outputs is required in a through-hole DIP package. Ensure the system voltage falls within the 3V to 18V range. Consider propagation delay and power dissipation characteristics relative to other logic families like LS or HC if speed or power efficiency is critical.

Flip Flops Part Context

This part belongs to the 74C series of CMOS logic integrated circuits. It is functionally similar to the 74LS175 but utilizes CMOS technology for lower power consumption and wider voltage operation. The 'N' suffix denotes the plastic dual-in-line package format suitable for breadboard or PCB mounting.

Flip Flops Replacement Considerations

Direct functional substitutes include DM74LS175N and SN74LS175N, though these are TTL-based with different voltage and speed characteristics. For CMOS replacements, verify equivalent pinouts and electrical parameters from manufacturers such as Texas Instruments or ON Semiconductor.
