SN74LVC374AQPWRQ1 Octal Edge-Triggered D-Type Flip-Flops

The SN74LVC374AQPWRQ1 is a high-performance, automotive-grade integrated circuit produced by Texas Instruments. This device belongs to the 74LVC family, which is known for its low-voltage operation and compatibility with 5V systems. The SN74LVC374AQPWRQ1 is specifically designed to meet the rigorous demands of automotive applications, offering robust performance and reliability.

This octal flip-flop chip features eight edge-triggered D-type flip-flops with 3-state outputs. It is designed to store eight bits of data when the clock (CLK) input is on a positive-going transition. Each flip-flop has individual clear (CLR) inputs and outputs (Q). The 3-state outputs ensure that the flip-flops can either drive active loads, be in a high-impedance state, or drive the bus lines in a bidirectional manner.

The SN74LVC374AQPWRQ1 operates over a wide voltage range of 2.7V to 3.6V, which makes it suitable for interfacing with both 3.3V and 5V logic levels. This feature is particularly beneficial in mixed-voltage systems where signal translation is required. The device also boasts a low-power consumption, which is crucial for battery-powered and energy-sensitive applications.

With its automotive qualification, the SN74LVC374AQPWRQ1 is designed to withstand harsh environments, including temperature extremes and high levels of mechanical stress. It is available in a TSSOP (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package) form factor, which is ideal for space-constrained applications.

Key features of the SN74LVC374AQPWRQ1 include:

• Automotive Grade Product (AEC-Q100 qualified)
• Wide Operating Voltage Range (2.7V to 3.6V)
• Low Power Consumption
• Eight Edge-Triggered D-Type Flip-Flops
• 3-State Outputs for Bus-Oriented Applications
