Product details
Overview
74AC11074DE4 from Texas Instruments is a dual positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with independent preset and clear inputs, operating from –40°C to 85°C at VCC = 3–5.5 V. It delivers 125 MHz max clock frequency at 5 V, 3.5 ns setup time, and ±24 mA output drive. Used in synchronous logic control, state machines, and data latching in industrial control panels.
For engineers reviewing the 74AC11074DE4 datasheet, 74AC11074DE4 pinout, 74AC11074DE4 application, or 74AC11074DE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include edge-triggered behavior, asynchronous PRE/CLR assertion, guaranteed hold-time zero, and EPIC™ process latch-up immunity of 500 mA at 125°C.
Technical Context
This device implements two independent D-type flip-flops sharing no internal coupling-each with dedicated PRE, CLR, CLK, D, Q, and Q̅ terminals. Clock triggering responds to voltage threshold crossing, not edge slew rate, enabling robust operation across varying signal rise times.
It uses Texas Instruments' EPIC™ 1-µm CMOS process, delivering low-noise switching via center-pin VCC/GND configuration and supporting rail-to-rail input/output swing within 0–VCC bounds. Absolute maximum ratings include ±50 mA output clamp current and –0.5 V to 7 V supply tolerance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | Advanced CMOS (AC), compatible with TTL input thresholds and CMOS output drive levels |
| Max Clock Frequency | 125 MHz at VCC = 5 V - supports high-speed synchronous logic in digital controllers |
| Setup Time (tsu) | 3.5 ns at VCC = 5 V - enables tight timing margins in pipeline stages |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA at VCC = 5 V - directly drives multiple TTL loads or small PCB traces without buffering |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial ambient environments without derating |
| Latch-Up Immunity | 500 mA typical at 125°C - ensures reliability under transient overcurrent stress |
| Power Dissipation Cap | 1.1 W (N package) - defines thermal design limits for continuous operation in enclosed enclosures |
Pinout & Package
74AC11074DE4 is supplied in a 14-pin plastic DIP (N package), 300-mil width, with through-hole mounting and center-pin VCC (pin 14) and GND (pin 7) layout to minimize high-speed switching noise.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1PRE, 2PRE | Asynchronous preset input (active-low) | Forces Q = H / Q̅ = L independently of clock; overrides D and CLK when asserted |
| 1CLR, 2CLR | Asynchronous clear input (active-low) | Forces Q = L / Q̅ = H independently of clock; overrides D and CLK when asserted |
| 1CLK, 2CLK | Positive-edge clock input | Transfers D-state to Q on low-to-high transition; threshold-triggered, not slew-dependent |
| 1D, 2D | Data input | Held stable ≥3.5 ns before CLK↑ to guarantee correct capture at 5 V supply |
| 1Q, 2Q | True output | Complementary to Q̅; capable of sourcing/sinking ±24 mA at VCC = 5 V |
| 1Q̅, 2Q̅ | Inverted output | Provides logical complement of Q; usable as feedback or differential signaling pair |
| VCC (Pin 14) | Positive supply | Center-pin placement reduces ground bounce and supply noise coupling in high-frequency operation |
| GND (Pin 7) | Ground reference | Center-pin placement provides symmetrical return path for both flip-flop sections |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Asynchronous control | Preset and clear operate independently of clock edge, enabling immediate state initialization or reset |
| Threshold-based clocking | CLK triggering occurs at defined voltage level-not dependent on rise time-improving jitter tolerance |
| EPIC™ process integration | 1-µm CMOS fabrication yields low power, high noise immunity, and 500-mA latch-up resistance |
| Center-pin VCC/GND | Reduces simultaneous switching noise by balancing supply/return paths across the IC body |
| Rail-to-rail I/O | Inputs accept 0–VCC; outputs swing full rail, ensuring interoperability with TTL and mixed-voltage systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar D-type flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AC74N | Dual D-flip-flop with same AC family specs but no dedicated PRE/CLR per section - shares common set/reset | Lacks independent asynchronous control per flip-flop; unsuitable where isolated reset is required | Select 74AC11074DE4 when per-channel preset/clear is mandatory for fault containment or modular state management |
| 74ACT109N | JK flip-flop variant with identical pinout and AC speed, but JK functionality instead of D-type | Requires different control logic mapping; cannot substitute directly in D-input designs without gate rework | Choose 74AC11074DE4 for pure D-latch behavior with minimal external logic; avoid ACT109 unless JK function is explicitly needed |
Compared with SN74AC74N and 74ACT109N, the 74AC11074DE4 uniquely provides fully independent PRE/CLR per flip-flop in a standard 14-pin DIP, enabling modular state control without shared reset propagation or functional conversion overhead.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the 74AC11074DE4?
The 74AC11074DE4 supports up to 125 MHz maximum clock frequency when operated at VCC = 5 V ± 0.5 V and TA = 25°C. At VCC = 3.3 V, the rated maximum drops to 100 MHz. These values are measured under specified load conditions (CL = 50 pF) and reflect guaranteed performance across the commercial temperature range.
Does the 74AC11074DE4 require external pull-up resistors on PRE and CLR inputs?
No, the 74AC11074DE4 does not require external pull-up resistors on PRE or CLR inputs. Its CMOS inputs have low leakage (±1 µA max), and internal design allows direct connection to VCC for inactive-high operation. Pull-ups are only needed if driving from open-collector sources or long traces susceptible to noise.
Can the 74AC11074DE4 be used in mixed-voltage systems with 3.3 V logic?
Yes, the 74AC11074DE4 operates down to VCC = 3 V and accepts input voltages compliant with TTL thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.1 V at 3 V supply). Its outputs swing rail-to-rail, making it interoperable with 3.3 V CMOS receivers when VCC = 3.3 V, though output drive strength reduces proportionally versus 5 V operation.
What is the purpose of the center-pin VCC and GND configuration in the 74AC11074DE4 N-package?
The center-pin VCC (pin 14) and GND (pin 7) layout in the 74AC11074DE4 N-package minimizes high-speed switching noise by equalizing inductance in supply and return paths. This symmetric placement reduces ground bounce and supply droop during simultaneous output transitions, improving signal integrity in dense logic layouts.
Is the 74AC11074DE4 pin-compatible with older 74LS or 74HC series D-flip-flops?
No, the 74AC11074DE4 is not pin-compatible with standard 74LS74 or 74HC74 devices. While all are 14-pin dual D-flip-flops, the 74AC11074DE4 assigns PRE/CLR to pins 1/2 and 13/12 respectively, whereas LS74/HC74 locate them at pins 4/12 and 5/13. Direct replacement requires PCB redesign.
