SN74AHC174D

Flip Flops Overview

The SN74AHC174D is a hex D-type flip-flop with clear from the Texas Instruments AHC logic series. It features six independent D-type flip-flops in a single package, providing non-inverting outputs. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 5.5 V and supports surface-mount installation in an SOIC-Narrow-16 package. Key electrical parameters include a propagation delay of 14.5 ns, high-level output current of -8 mA, and low-level output current of 8 mA. It functions reliably across an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Flip Flops Feature Summary

• Contains six independent D-type flip-flops with clear functionality
• Provides non-inverting CMOS outputs for signal integrity
• Supports wide supply voltage operation from 2 V to 5.5 V

Flip Flops Applications

• Parallel-to-serial data conversion circuits
• Shift register implementations
• General-purpose storage elements in digital systems

Flip Flops Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'D' corresponds to the SOIC-Narrow-16 package variant when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to integration. Ensure the selected component matches the required pinout and thermal specifications for the target PCB layout design.

Flip Flops Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring multiple synchronized storage elements within a compact footprint. The AHC series offers improved speed compared to standard 74HC devices while maintaining compatibility. Consider the 14.5 ns propagation delay and 8 mA drive capability when designing timing-critical paths or driving moderate loads in 2V to 5.5V systems.

Flip Flops Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74AHC174 family of hex D-type flip-flops. The 'D' suffix specifically denotes the SOIC-Narrow-16 surface-mount package configuration. It is distinct from the SN74AHC174N which utilizes a PDIP-16 through-hole package. Both variants share identical logical functionality and electrical characteristics as defined by the Texas Instruments datasheet.

Flip Flops Replacement Considerations

SN74AHC174DR serves as a reel-packaged alternative with identical electrical specifications and pinout compatibility.
