SN74LVC374DW

Flip Flops Overview

The SN74LVC374DW is an octal D-type flip-flop manufactured by Texas Instruments, housed in a 20-SOIC package. It features edge-triggered data storage with three-state outputs for bus-oriented memory operations. The device operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C and supports logic levels compatible with LVC standards.

Flip Flops Feature Summary

• Octal configuration providing eight independent D-type flip-flops in a single integrated circuit
• Three-state output capability enabling direct connection to system buses without additional buffering
• Edge-triggered operation ensuring precise data capture at clock transitions

Flip Flops Applications

• Bus-oriented memory implementations requiring parallel data storage
• Register files in digital signal processing systems
• General-purpose shift registers for data serialization or deserialization tasks

Flip Flops Procurement Notes

Verify the RoHS status carefully, as some sources indicate non-compliance for this specific suffix. Confirm moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) requirements for handling and storage conditions prior to assembly. Ensure the supplier provides genuine Texas Instruments components with traceable date codes to avoid counterfeit risks associated with high-volume logic ICs.

Flip Flops Selection Notes

Select this component when an octal register with tri-state outputs is required for bus interfacing. Consider the 20-SOIC package constraints for PCB layout. Verify voltage compatibility with the target system logic levels before integration, as performance depends on proper supply voltage adherence within the specified operating range.

Flip Flops Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LVC family of low-voltage CMOS logic devices. It serves as a standard solution for parallel data storage in embedded systems. The DW suffix denotes the 20-lead small-outline integrated circuit package, distinguishing it from other form factors like TSSOP or SOIC-wide variants available in the same functional family.

Flip Flops Replacement Considerations

The SN74LVC374A is a documented variant within the same functional category. Verify pinout and electrical specifications match exactly before substitution. Other octal D-type flip-flops with tri-state outputs may require level shifting or timing adjustments if not directly pin-compatible.
