Product details
Overview
74ABT377AD,118 from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Philips) is an octal positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with active-low enable, designed for addressable register and data synchronization functions in 5V TTL-compatible digital systems. It features 8-bit parallel data storage, 150 MHz maximum clock frequency, ±32 mA/±64 mA output drive capability, and operates across –40°C to +85°C.
For engineers reviewing the 74ABT377AD,118 datasheet, 74ABT377AD,118 pinout, 74ABT377AD,118 application, or 74ABT377AD,118 equivalent, this device is selected for high-speed register buffering, bus interface latching, and synchronous control logic where precise edge-triggered timing and robust output drive are required.
Technical Context
The 74ABT377AD,118 implements a fully edge-triggered architecture with a common buffered clock (CP) input and shared active-low enable (E), ensuring simultaneous loading of all eight D inputs into Q outputs on each rising clock edge. Its BiCMOS process delivers low propagation delay (3.1 ns typical CP→Qn) while maintaining TTL-level input thresholds (VIL = 0.8 V, VIH = 2.0 V) and 5V supply compatibility.
It supports strict AC timing requirements including 1.5 ns minimum setup time (Dn to CP), –0.6 ns hold time (Dn to CP), and 2.0 ns setup time (E to CP). Power-up reset ensures Q outputs initialize low, and latch-up protection exceeds 500 mA per JEDEC JC40.2.
Key Specifications

| Propagation Delay (CP→Qn) | 3.1 ns typical (CL = 50 pF, VCC = 5 V) - supports tight timing budgets in synchronous logic |
| Output Drive | +64 mA sink / –32 mA source - drives heavy capacitive loads or multiple TTL inputs without buffers |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5V TTL and mixed-voltage system rails |

| 3,4,7,8,13,14,17,18 | D0–D7 | Asynchronous data inputs - sampled one setup time before CP rising edge |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference (0 V) - required for stable biasing and noise immunity |
| 11 | CP | Positive-edge-triggered clock - controls simultaneous transfer of Dn to Qn |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply (4.5–5.5 V) - powers internal BiCMOS circuitry and output stages |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type register applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ABT377N | DIP-20 package only; identical AC/DC specs and pinout | Suitable for through-hole prototyping or legacy board rework; lacks SO's space efficiency | Select when mechanical mounting or hand-soldering is required; same logic behavior and timing |
| 74LVX377M | 3.3V-only supply (2.7–3.6 V); lower drive (±24 mA); 100 MHz max fCLK | Targets low-power 3.3V systems; not 5V-tolerant; requires level-shifting for 5V interface | Choose for battery-powered or mixed-voltage designs where 5V operation is unnecessary |

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range for the 74ABT377AD,118?
The 74ABT377AD,118 operates over a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V. This range ensures compatibility with standard 5V TTL systems while accommodating typical rail tolerances. Operation outside this range may cause functional failure or permanent damage, as specified in the absolute maximum ratings (VCC = –0.5 V to +7.0 V is destructive).
Does the 74ABT377AD,118 have built-in power-up reset functionality?
Yes, the 74ABT377AD,118 features power-up reset: all Q outputs initialize to a low state when VCC rises above threshold, regardless of D-input or clock conditions. This behavior is confirmed in the DC Electrical Characteristics table (VRST ≤ 0.55 V at VCC = 5.5 V, IO = 1 mA) and eliminates need for external reset circuits during system startup.
Is the 74ABT377AD,118 pin-compatible with older 74ABT377 variants?
Yes, the 74ABT377AD,118 shares identical pin configuration, logic function, and electrical specifications with all 74ABT377A variants (e.g., DIP, SSOP, TSSOP packages). The "D" suffix denotes SO package (SOT163-1), and the "118" indicates tape-and-reel packaging - both do not affect pinout or functionality.
What is the maximum output current capability of the 74ABT377AD,118?
The 74ABT377AD,118 provides ±32 mA high-level source current and ±64 mA low-level sink current per output, as specified in the Recommended Operating Conditions table. This drive strength allows direct connection to multiple 74LS inputs or resistive loads without external buffers, verified under VCC = 4.5 V conditions.
Can the 74ABT377AD,118 be used in systems requiring ESD immunity above 2 kV?
Yes, the 74ABT377AD,118 exceeds 2000 V HBM ESD protection per MIL-STD-883 Method 3015 and 200 V MM, as stated in its Features section. This level of immunity supports reliable operation in assembly, test, and field environments where static discharge is a concern, including industrial control panels and benchtop instrumentation.
