Additional Details

The TC74VCX573FK is an octal D-type flip-flop with a three-state output. The device features an output enable (OE) input, which allows the outputs to be placed in a high-impedance state. This is useful for implementing bus interfaces where multiple devices share the same bus. The data is transferred to the outputs when the clock (CLK) input transitions from low to high. The device operates over a wide voltage range, from 1.65 V to 3.6 V, making it suitable for various applications. The 3.6V tolerant input and output allow the device to be used in mixed-voltage systems. The low power consumption minimizes heat generation and extends battery life. The high output drive capability enables the device to drive heavily loaded buses. The VSSOP package provides a small footprint, making it ideal for space-constrained applications. The TC74VCX573FK is a versatile and reliable device for high-speed data storage and interface applications. Proper decoupling capacitors should be used near the power supply pins to ensure stable operation. The input signals should be clean and free from excessive noise to prevent spurious clocking. The device is available in tape and reel packaging for automated assembly.
