SN74S174N

Flip Flops Overview

The SN74S174N is a high-speed Schottky (S) logic device manufactured by Texas Instruments, housed in a 16-pin plastic dual in-line package (PDIP). It functions as a triple D-type flip-flop with clear inputs. The component operates within a standard voltage range and supports the S-series logic family characteristics, providing positive-edge triggering for data storage applications in digital circuits.

Flip Flops Feature Summary

• Triple D-type flip-flop architecture with dedicated clear inputs
• High-speed Schottky logic technology for rapid switching performance
• Positive-edge-triggered operation for precise timing control

Flip Flops Applications

• Digital data storage registers
• Shift register configurations

Flip Flops Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer source and date code upon ordering. Confirm that the package matches the required through-hole mounting specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing system voltage levels and signal integrity requirements before finalizing procurement.

Flip Flops Selection Notes

Select this component when high-speed switching is required alongside triple flip-flop functionality. Consider the PDIP package constraints for board space. Evaluate power consumption against other logic families if thermal management is critical for the application environment.

Flip Flops Part Context

This part belongs to the Texas Instruments SN74xx series of logic integrated circuits. It utilizes Schottky diodes to prevent saturation, ensuring faster propagation delays compared to standard TTL variants. The N suffix indicates the specific plastic DIP packaging configuration.

Flip Flops Replacement Considerations

Check for direct equivalents such as the SN54S174J for military-grade temperature ranges or other S-series triple D-flip-flops from compatible manufacturers. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter alignment before substitution.
