NXP 74HCT273DB Octal D-Type Flip-Flop with Clear

The NXP 74HCT273DB is a high-performance, octal D-type flip-flop integrated circuit designed for use in a wide range of digital applications. This device is part of the 74HCT family, which is well-known for its high-speed CMOS technology. It is ideally suited for interfacing with high-speed logic and is compatible with TTL levels.

The 74HCT273DB features eight edge-triggered flip-flops with individual D-type inputs and outputs. These flip-flops are controlled by a common clock (CP) and a master reset (MR) input. The master reset input is active high and, when asserted, will immediately clear all flip-flops, setting the output to a low state regardless of the clock input.

This device operates with a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V, which allows for its use in typical 5V logic systems. The low power consumption of this IC makes it suitable for battery-operated and low-power systems. In addition, the 74HCT273DB offers a balanced propagation delay and transition times, which provides reliable, high-speed operation.

The 74HCT273DB is available in a 20-pin SSOP package, which minimizes the footprint on printed circuit boards and is ideal for space-constrained applications. The pin configuration is industry-standard, which facilitates easy integration into existing designs without the need for significant layout changes.
