Product details
Overview
74ABT377ADB,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, ±32mA/±64mA output drive, 4.5–5.5V supply operation, and guaranteed operation from –40°C to +85°C in a 20-pin SSOP package.
For engineers reviewing the 74ABT377ADB,118 datasheet, 74ABT377ADB,118 pinout, 74ABT377ADB,118 application, or 74ABT377ADB,118 equivalent, key selection criteria include edge-triggered register timing, enable-controlled clock gating, high-current drive capability, and industrial-temperature-grade SSOP packaging for space-constrained logic control designs.
Technical Context
The 74ABT377ADB,118 implements eight independent D-type flip-flops sharing a common rising-edge-sensitive clock (CP) and a single active-low enable (E). Its BiCMOS architecture delivers low propagation delay (3.1 ns typical CP→Qn at 5V/50pF) while maintaining high noise immunity and latch-up protection exceeding 500 mA per JEDEC JC40.2.
Operation requires stable E and D inputs one setup time before the CP rising edge; hold time for both inputs is specified down to –0.6 ns at temperature extremes. Power-up reset ensures Q outputs initialize low, supporting deterministic system startup without external initialization circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | 74ABT - Advanced BiCMOS TTL-compatible with 5V supply and 3.3V input tolerance |
| Function | Octal D-type flip-flop with common clock and active-low enable (non-inverting outputs) |
| Propagation Delay | 3.1 ns (tPLH), 3.6 ns (tPHL) at VCC = 5V, CL = 50pF - enables >150 MHz clock operation |
| Output Drive | +64 mA sink / –32 mA source - drives heavy capacitive loads or multiple TTL inputs directly |
| Supply Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - supports industrial 5V rail tolerances with margin |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for extended-temperature embedded and industrial control |
| Input Capacitance | 4 pF - minimizes loading on preceding logic stages and reduces dynamic power |
Pinout & Package
74ABT377ADB,118 is housed in a 20-pin plastic SSOP Type II package (SOT339-1), 5.3 mm body width, with 0.65 mm lead pitch and gull-wing leads for surface-mount assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | E | Active-low enable: gates clock propagation; must be stable ≥1.5 ns before CP rising edge |
| 2,5,6,9,12,15,16,19 | Q0–Q7 | Non-inverted registered outputs; each capable of sourcing –32 mA or sinking +64 mA |
| 3,4,7,8,13,14,17,18 | D0–D7 | Asynchronous data inputs; sampled on CP rising edge when E = L |
| 11 | CP | Positive-edge-triggered clock input; controls simultaneous loading of all 8 flip-flops |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference (0 V); decoupling capacitor placement critical for noise immunity |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply (4.5–5.5 V); requires local 100 nF ceramic bypass near pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Power-up reset | Guarantees Q outputs initialize low at VCC ramp-up, eliminating need for external POR 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ABT377ADW | Same logic function and AC/DC specs; packaged in 20-pin SO (SOT163-1), 7.5 mm body width | SO package offers easier manual soldering and higher thermal mass; less dense than SSOP | Select for prototyping, lower-volume production, or legacy SO footprint compatibility |
| 74LVX377M | Lower voltage (2.7–3.6 V), CMOS-only; max fCLK = 80 MHz; ±24 mA drive; no power-up reset | Designed for 3.3 V systems; lacks industrial temp rating and latch-up immunity of ABT family | Select only for 3.3 V battery-powered or low-power portable designs where ABT performance is unnecessary |
Compared with SN74ABT377ADW and 74LVX377M, the 74ABT377ADB,118 uniquely combines SSOP density, 5V industrial robustness, power-up reset, and >150 MHz operation - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability 5V control logic where deterministic startup and noise immunity are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the 74ABT377ADB,118?
The 74ABT377ADB,118 supports a maximum clock frequency of 150 MHz over its full operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and up to 250 MHz at +25°C. This is enabled by its low propagation delay (3.1 ns typical tPLH) and fast edge rates, making it suitable for high-speed register applications in 5V digital systems where timing margins are tight.
Does the 74ABT377ADB,118 have a power-up reset function?
Yes, the 74ABT377ADB,118 includes a built-in power-up reset feature that guarantees all Q outputs initialize to logic low upon VCC ramp-up. This eliminates the need for external reset circuitry in systems where deterministic initial state is required, simplifying design and improving reliability during cold-start conditions.
What are the absolute maximum ratings for supply voltage and output current on the 74ABT377ADB,118?
The 74ABT377ADB,118 has an absolute maximum DC supply voltage (VCC) of –0.5 V to +7.0 V and a maximum DC output current (IOUT) of 128 mA in the low state. Exceeding these limits risks permanent device damage; recommended operating VCC is strictly 4.5–5.5 V, and output load should not exceed ±64 mA/±32 mA per pin under normal use.
Is the 74ABT377ADB,118 pin-compatible with other packages in the same family?
Yes - the 74ABT377ADB,118 shares identical pinout and electrical functionality with other 74ABT377A variants including the DIP (74ABT377AN), SO (74ABT377AD), and TSSOP (74ABT377APW) packages. All use the same 20-pin assignment per the Philips SOT339-1, SOT163-1, SOT146-1, and SOT360-1 drawings, enabling direct PCB footprint substitution where mechanical constraints allow.
What logic levels does the 74ABT377ADB,118 accept on its D and E inputs?
The 74ABT377ADB,118 accepts TTL-compatible input levels: VIH ≥ 2.0 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V over the full temperature range. Its BiCMOS inputs tolerate voltages up to 7.0 V (absolute max), and exhibit only 4 pF capacitance - enabling reliable interfacing with legacy 5V TTL, CMOS, and mixed-voltage systems without level-shifting.
