SN74LVC74ANS

Flip Flops Overview

The SN74LVC74ANS is a dual positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop from Texas Instruments' LVC logic series. It features push-pull outputs and operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 3.6 V. The device provides high-level output current of -24 mA and low-level output current of 24 mA. It is housed in a 14-pin SOIC package and supports surface-mount installation. The component functions as a standard logic circuit with CMOS input types.

Flip Flops Feature Summary

• Dual positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop architecture
• Push-pull output configuration for robust signal driving
• Wide operating voltage range supporting low-power applications

Flip Flops Applications

• General-purpose digital data storage circuits
• State machine implementation in embedded systems
• Parallel-to-serial data conversion modules

Flip Flops Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm the exact package variant and tape/reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB footprint, as the SN74LVC74ANS utilizes a standard SOIC-14 outline. Confirm that the supply voltage levels in the application design remain strictly within the 1.65 V to 3.6 V operational limits defined in the datasheet to prevent device malfunction or damage.

Flip Flops Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual flip-flop solution is required in a compact surface-mount package. The LVC series offers speed and power characteristics suitable for modern low-voltage digital designs. Consider the 14-pin SOIC form factor for ease of assembly compared to smaller packages. Verify that the input voltage levels are compatible with the system logic family to ensure reliable triggering and data retention during operation.

Flip Flops Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LVC74A family of dual positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flops. It shares functional similarities with other variants like the SN74LVC74ADRQ1 but differs in packaging and automotive qualification status. The LVC series is designed for low-voltage applications, providing a balance between performance and power consumption. It serves as a fundamental building block for sequential logic circuits in consumer and industrial electronics.

Flip Flops Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the SN74LVC74ADRG4 and SN74LVC74APWG4, which offer identical logical functionality. The SN74LVC74ARGYR is another compatible option with different packaging. Ensure that any replacement maintains the same voltage range and output drive capabilities. Verify pinout compatibility before integrating alternative packages into existing designs.
