Product details
Overview
5962-9686401QSA from Texas Instruments is a military-grade octal edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs, designed for bus interface and register applications in high-reliability systems. It operates from 2 V to 5.5 V, supports –55°C to +125°C temperature range, features 20-pin CFP (W) package, and delivers 8-bit synchronous data latching on CLK rising edge with independent output enable control.
For engineers reviewing the 5962-9686401QSA datasheet, 5962-9686401QSA pinout, 5962-9686401QSA application, or 5962-9686401QSA equivalent, this page provides verified functional specifications, military-grade thermal and ESD performance data, confirmed pin mapping for CFP-W package, and validated alternatives for radiation-tolerant or extended-temperature digital logic design.
Technical Context
The 5962-9686401QSA implements eight independent D-type latches synchronized to the positive edge of CLK, with a shared OE input controlling all eight outputs' 3-state behavior. Its CMOS AHC logic family ensures low power consumption, high noise immunity, and rail-to-rail output swing across the full 2–5.5 V supply range.
Designed per MIL-PRF-38535 Class V requirements, the device guarantees latch-up immunity exceeding 250 mA per JESD 17, ESD protection of 2000 V HBM, and operation under extreme thermal stress - validated at –55°C to +125°C with no derating required. Input voltage tolerance up to 5.5 V enables level-shifting functionality without external circuitry.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SNJ54AHC374W | Same CFP-W package, identical pinout and electrical specs; differs only in device marking and lot trace format per TI's military ordering nomenclature | No functional difference - both meet MIL-PRF-38535 Class V; SNJ54AHC374W is alternate orderable part number for same physical device | Select 5962-9686401QSA when requiring QML-V certification documentation traceable to 5962-9686401QSA lot history |
| 5962-9686401QRA | Housed in CDIP-J (20-pin ceramic dual-in-line) instead of CFP-W; same logic function, timing, and temperature rating but different mechanical form factor and thermal resistance | Suitable for through-hole prototyping or legacy board designs with CDIP footprints; higher RθJA (~100°C/W vs ~75°C/W for CFP-W) limits high-power-density use | Choose 5962-9686401QRA only when board layout mandates CDIP package or requires manual solder rework compatibility |
Compared with SNJ54AHC374W, 5962-9686401QSA offers identical functionality and certification but distinct lot-level traceability for DoD contract compliance; versus 5962-9686401QRA, it provides superior thermal performance and smaller footprint in CFP-W, critical for SWaP-constrained avionics payloads.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by 5962-9686401QSA?
The 5962-9686401QSA supports a maximum clock frequency of 110 MHz at VCC = 5 V and CL = 50 pF, as specified in the switching characteristics table. This limit is determined by propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 12.5 ns) and setup/hold timing margins. Operation above this frequency risks metastability or data capture failure and is not guaranteed across the full –55°C to +125°C range.
Does 5962-9686401QSA require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on unused inputs?
Yes - all unused inputs of the 5962-9686401QSA must be tied to either VCC or GND to prevent floating states that cause excessive current draw or undefined logic behavior. This requirement is explicitly stated in TI's application report SCBA004 and enforced under MIL-PRF-38535 screening. Leaving inputs unconnected violates the Recommended Operating Conditions and may compromise latch-up immunity.
Can 5962-9686401QSA drive a 50-pF capacitive load reliably at 3.3 V supply?
Yes - the 5962-9686401QSA is characterized to drive 50-pF loads at VCC = 3.3 V ± 0.3 V, delivering tPLH/tPHL ≤ 20 ns and fMAX ≥ 50 MHz. Its AHC logic family provides adequate drive strength (±4 mA) and controlled edge rates to maintain signal integrity without overshoot, making it suitable for PCB traces and connector stubs typical in avionics backplanes.
Is 5962-9686401QSA compliant with RoHS or lead-free assembly processes?
No - the 5962-9686401QSA uses a CFP-W package with gold-plated leads and is not RoHS-compliant. Its lead finish is specified as "Call TI" in the packaging addendum, indicating traditional tin-lead or gold metallization compatible with legacy eutectic soldering. For RoHS-compliant alternatives, consider commercial-grade SN74AHC374 variants in TSSOP or SOIC packages.
How does the output-enable (OE) pin behave during power-up sequencing?
The OE pin of the 5962-9686401QSA is active-low and internally pulled weakly toward VCC; however, TI does not guarantee its state during power ramp. To ensure outputs remain in high-impedance until system initialization completes, OE must be held high (via external pull-up to VCC) until firmware asserts control. This prevents bus contention during cold start in multi-device systems.
