Product details
Overview
74ABT74DB,118 from Nexperia is a dual positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with independent asynchronous set (SD) and reset (RD) inputs, complementary Q/Q̅ outputs per channel, 180 MHz maximum clock frequency at 5.0 V, 1.0 ns minimum propagation delay, and IOFF-enabled partial power-down protection. It operates across -40 °C to +85 °C and supports TTL-level interfacing in synchronous logic control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 74ABT74DB,118 datasheet, 74ABT74DB,118 pinout, 74ABT74DB,118 application, or 74ABT74DB,118 equivalent, this device is selected for high-speed edge-triggered data latching in industrial control sequencers, bus interface synchronization, and clock-domain crossing where deterministic setup/hold timing (2.4 ns tsu, 0 ns th) and low-skew output switching (0.5 ns skew) are required.
Technical Context
The 74ABT74DB,118 implements two independent D-flip-flops sharing no internal coupling-each with dedicated SD, RD, CP, D, Q, and Q̅ terminals. Its BiCMOS architecture delivers TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) and rail-to-rail output drive (IOH = −15 mA, IOL = 20 mA) under 4.5–5.5 V supply.
Asynchronous set/reset operate at active-LOW with 2.0 ns minimum pulse width and 2.1 ns recovery time to clock. The IOFF circuit disables outputs during VCC = 0 V, blocking backflow current-a critical feature for hot-swap and multi-voltage domain systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - Ensures compatibility with standard 5 V TTL and mixed-supply systems. |
| Max clock frequency | 180 MHz at 5.0 V - Supports high-throughput data capture in real-time control loops. |
| Propagation delay (CP→Q) | 1.0–4.7 ns - Enables sub-5 ns timing margins for tight synchronous designs. |
| Setup/hold time (D→CP) | 2.4 ns setup / 0 ns hold - Simplifies timing closure with zero hold constraint on data stability. |
| Output skew | 0.5 ns max - Guarantees matched switching between Q and Q̅ outputs for clean differential signaling. |
| IOFF leakage | ±100 μA at VCC = 0 V - Prevents destructive back-current during partial power-down. |
| Operating temperature | −40 °C to +85 °C - Validated for industrial ambient conditions without derating. |
Pinout & Package
74ABT74DB,118 is supplied in SO14 (SOT108-1) package: plastic small outline, 14-lead, 3.9 mm body width, 1.27 mm lead pitch. Pin 1 is index-marked; leads are gull-wing, surface-mount compatible.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 13 (1RD, 2RD) | Asynchronous reset (active LOW) | Forces Q = LOW regardless of clock state; overrides all other inputs. |
| 2, 12 (1D, 2D) | Data input | Samples and latches logic level on rising CP edge if setup/hold met. |
| 3, 11 (1CP, 2CP) | Clock input (LOW-to-HIGH edge) | Triggers synchronous data transfer; edge-sensitive, not level-sensitive. |
| 4, 10 (1SD, 2SD) | Asynchronous set (active LOW) | Forces Q = HIGH regardless of clock state; independent per flip-flop. |
| 5, 9 (1Q, 2Q) | True output | Reflects stored D value after CP edge; drives TTL loads directly. |
| 6, 8 (1Q̅, 2Q̅) | Complement output | Logic inverse of Q; enables differential latch or toggle-mode operation. |
| 7 | GND | Reference ground (0 V) for all inputs, outputs, and internal circuitry. |
| 14 | VCC | Positive supply (4.5–5.5 V); powers both logic core and output drivers. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| BiCMOS process technology | Combines bipolar speed and CMOS low static power for 250 MHz typ fmax and <50 μA ICC quiescent current. |
| IOFF partial power-down | Automatically disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, eliminating backfeed risk in live-backplane systems. |
| TTL-compatible interface | Accepts standard TTL VIH/VIL thresholds and drives −15 mA/20 mA loads without external level shifters. |
| Latch-up immunity | Exceeds 500 mA per JESD78B Class II Level A - robust against transient-induced parasitic thyristor activation. |
| ESD protection | HBM >2000 V and CDM >1000 V - meets industrial handling requirements without additional protection circuitry. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual D-type flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ABT74N | PDIP-14 package only; no TSSOP/SO variants; identical AC/DC specs and pinout. | Preferred for through-hole prototyping or legacy board rework where SO14 footprint unavailable. | Select when mechanical mounting requires axial leads or wave-solder compatibility. |
| 74LVC74AD,118 | Lower VCC range (1.65–3.6 V); 3.3 V optimized; 170 MHz max fmax; no IOFF circuitry. | Suitable for modern low-voltage digital systems but incompatible with 5 V bus domains. | Choose only for 3.3 V-only designs where power efficiency outweighs 5 V interoperability. |
Compared with SN74ABT74N, 74ABT74DB,118 offers surface-mount SO14 packaging for higher density and thermal performance; versus 74LVC74AD,118, it provides full 5 V tolerance, IOFF protection, and 10 MHz higher clock headroom-critical for mixed-voltage industrial interfaces.

FAQ
Does 74ABT74DB,118 support mixed-voltage operation between 3.3 V and 5 V domains?
No. The 74ABT74DB,118 is specified only for 4.5–5.5 V VCC operation and TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.0 V). While it may accept 3.3 V logic-high inputs, its output swing remains 0 V/5 V, risking overvoltage damage to downstream 3.3 V receivers unless level-shifted. It is not designed for true mixed-voltage I/O.
What is the function of the IOFF circuit, and when does it activate?
The IOFF circuit disables all outputs (Q, Q̅) when VCC drops below ~0.8 V, preventing reverse current flow from powered I/O lines into the unpowered IC. It activates automatically during power-down sequences and remains active until VCC rises above the turn-on threshold-no external control signal is needed.
Can 74ABT74DB,118 be used as a toggle flip-flop (T-FF)?
Yes, by connecting Q̅ to D on each section. With CP driven continuously and SD/RD held HIGH, each flip-flop toggles on every rising clock edge. The 0 ns hold time simplifies this configuration, and the 180 MHz fmax supports toggle rates up to 90 MHz in practice.
Is the 74ABT74DB,118 pin-compatible with older 74LS74 or 74HC74 devices?
No. Although functional equivalence exists, pin assignments differ: 74ABT74DB,118 places 1RD on pin 1 and 2RD on pin 13, whereas 74LS74 uses pins 4 and 11 for SD/RD. Direct replacement requires PCB layout revision-not drop-in compatible.
