SN74LS174 Hex/Quadruple D-Type Flip-Flops with Clear

The SN74LS174 is a high-performance integrated circuit designed and manufactured by ON Semiconductor. This device is part of the 74LS logic family and is a hex D-type flip-flop with a direct clear input. It is widely used in various digital applications including computers, data processing, control systems, and communication devices due to its reliability and performance.

Key Features:

• Logic Type: D-Type Flip-Flop
• Number of Circuits: 6
• Output Type: Standard
• Propagation Delay Time: Typically 15ns at 5V, 25°C
• Supply Voltage Range: 4.75V to 5.25V
• Operating Temperature Range: 0°C to 70°C
• Package / Case: Various options available including DIP, SOIC, etc.

The SN74LS174 features six D-type flip-flops with single-rail outputs. Each flip-flop has an individual clear (CLR) input and a common clock (CLK) input. The clear function for all flip-flops is synchronous and triggered by a low-level input. When the clear input is active, all outputs are driven low, regardless of the other inputs. This synchronous reset feature allows for precise timing and control within sequential logic circuits.

The device boasts a typical propagation delay of 15ns, ensuring fast response times for high-speed applications. The SN74LS174 operates at a standard 5V supply voltage, making it compatible with TTL power levels and other 5V logic families. The operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C allows for use in a variety of environmental conditions.

ON Semiconductor's commitment to quality and performance is evident in the SN74LS174's design, which ensures minimal power consumption and maximum durability. The variety of packaging options allows for flexible design choices to meet specific application needs.

In summary, the SN74LS174 from ON Semiconductor is a versatile and reliable choice for designers looking to implement D-type flip-flops in their digital logic systems.
