Functional Description

The CD74HCT74MTE4 device features two independent D-type flip-flops with individual clear and set inputs for each flip-flop. The flip-flops operate at the positive edge of the clock input signal. When the clear input is taken low, the Q output is set low, and when the set input is taken low, the Q output is set high. If both set and clear are low, the set input takes precedence. The flip-flops are fully buffered for the highest noise immunity and pattern insensitivity to output impedance variations.

Applications

Given its high-speed performance and reliability, the CD74HCT74MTE4 is widely used in a variety of digital applications. These include:

• Frequency counters
• Shift registers
• Data storage
• Instrumentation
• Guidance and control systems
• Industrial controls
