SN74AHC374DW

Flip Flops Overview

The SN74AHC374DW is an octal edge-triggered D-type flip-flop manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features three-state outputs and operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 5.5 V. The device provides a propagation delay of 16.2 ns with output drive capabilities of 8 mA for both high and low states. It is housed in a 20-SOIC surface-mount package and supports operation across a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Flip Flops Feature Summary

• Octal configuration containing eight independent D-type flip-flops
• Three-state outputs allowing direct bus line connections
• Edge-triggered data storage on the positive-going transition of the clock
• CMOS input structure ensuring low static power consumption

Flip Flops Applications

• Parallel-to-serial conversion circuits
• Buffering and latching operations in digital systems
• Data acquisition system interfaces
• General-purpose memory register implementations

Flip Flops Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized channels. Confirm package integrity and pin alignment prior to assembly. Ensure soldering profiles match surface mount requirements. Check datasheet revisions for updated electrical characteristics. Validate environmental compliance status against project specifications.

Flip Flops Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring wide voltage operation and moderate speed. Compare against SN74HC374DW for slower, lower-cost alternatives. Consider SN74LVTH374DW for higher drive current needs. Evaluate SN74AHC374DWR for reel-based manufacturing processes instead of tube packaging.

Flip Flops Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74AHC374 family of logic integrated circuits. It shares functional compatibility with other octal flip-flops in the series. The DW suffix indicates a specific 20-pin small outline integrated circuit package variant. It complements Texas Instruments' broader portfolio of high-speed CMOS logic devices.

Flip Flops Replacement Considerations

SN74AHC374DWR offers identical functionality in tape-and-reel packaging. SN74AHC374PW provides the same logic in a TSSOP-20 package. SN74HC374DW serves as a legacy alternative with slower switching speeds.
