Product details
Overview
74AHC374D,118 from Nexperia is an octal positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs, designed for data latching and bus interface in digital systems. It operates across 2.0 V to 5.5 V supply, features overvoltage-tolerant inputs up to 5.5 V, and supports industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +125 °C) in SO20 package. Used in microcontroller peripheral interfacing and memory address/data buffering.
For engineers reviewing the 74AHC374D,118 datasheet, 74AHC374D,118 pinout, 74AHC374D,118 application, or 74AHC374D,118 equivalent, key selection criteria include edge-trigger timing (tsu = 3.0 ns @ VCC = 5 V), 3-state enable behavior (OE active LOW), propagation delay (tpd = 4.4 ns typ @ CL = 15 pF), and CMOS-level input compatibility.
Technical Context
This device implements eight independent D-type flip-flops synchronized to the rising edge of CP, each with individual D-input and Q-output, plus a shared OE control that places all outputs in high-impedance state without affecting internal register states. Inputs are overvoltage tolerant and Schmitt-triggered for noise immunity.
It supports mixed-voltage system interfacing via rail-to-rail input tolerance and exhibits balanced tPLH/tPHL propagation delays. The 3-state output architecture enables bidirectional bus sharing, while static current remains below 80 μA at VCC = 5.5 V across full temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | 74AHC - advanced high-speed CMOS with TTL-compatible drive strength and low power |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.0 V to 5.5 V - enables operation across 3.3 V and 5 V systems without level shifters |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 4.4 ns (typ) @ VCC = 5 V, CL = 15 pF - ensures sub-5 ns timing margin for 100+ MHz bus clocking |
| Set-up Time (tsu) | 3.0 ns @ VCC = 5 V - defines minimum data stability window before CP rising edge |
| Output Enable Delay (ten) | 3.9 ns (typ) @ VCC = 5 V, CL = 15 pF - determines fastest bus turnaround time when toggling OE |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | −0.5 V to +7.0 V - allows safe interfacing with higher-voltage signals without external clamping |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | >2000 V - meets JEDEC JS-001 Class 2, supporting robust handling in automated assembly |
Pinout & Package
74AHC374D,118 is housed in SO20 (SOT163-1) plastic small outline package: 20-pin, 7.5 mm body width, 1.27 mm pitch, gull-wing leads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | 3-state output enable input | Active LOW; disables all Q outputs to high-impedance without altering stored flip-flop states |
| 2–9, 12, 15–16, 19 (Q0–Q7) | 3-state flip-flop outputs | Octal registered outputs; driven HIGH/LOW when OE = LOW, tri-stated when OE = HIGH |
| 3–4, 7–8, 13–14, 17–18 (D0–D7) | Data inputs | Individual asynchronous data inputs sampled on LOW-to-HIGH CP transition |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | 0 V return path for logic and power; must be low-impedance for noise immunity |
| 11 (CP) | Clock input | Positive-edge-triggered; initiates synchronous capture of Dn inputs meeting tsu/thold |
| 20 (VCC) | Supply voltage | Primary power rail; decoupling capacitor required near pin for stable switching performance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input tolerance | Inputs withstand −0.5 V to +7.0 V regardless of VCC, enabling safe mixed-voltage signal routing |
| Wide operating voltage | Functional from 2.0 V to 5.5 V - supports both 3.3 V embedded logic and legacy 5 V bus domains |
| High noise immunity | Schmitt-triggered inputs provide hysteresis, rejecting transient noise up to 0.5 V on slow-rising signals |
| Low static power | ICC ≤ 80 μA max @ VCC = 5.5 V, −40 °C to +125 °C - suitable for always-on industrial control modules |
| Industrial temperature range | Specified from −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive ECUs and factory automation PLCs |
Applications
| Microcontroller I/O Expansion | Memory Address Latching |
|---|---|

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74AHCT374D,118 | TTL-compatible inputs (VIH = 2.0 V min); identical pinout, timing, and package | Required where driving from 5 V TTL logic; not suitable for 3.3 V-only CMOS systems due to VIH threshold | Select when interfacing legacy 5 V TTL buses; avoid in mixed 3.3 V/5 V designs unless level translation is confirmed unnecessary |
| SN74LVC374APWR | Lower VCC range (1.65–3.6 V); 3.3 V optimized; 1.5 ns faster tpd but no 5 V tolerance | Designed for modern low-voltage FPGAs and SoCs; lacks overvoltage protection for legacy signal injection | Prefer for battery-powered IoT nodes with 3.3 V rails; reject if system includes 5 V peripherals or uncontrolled signal sources |
Compared with 74AHC374D,118, the 74AHCT374D,118 offers TTL input compatibility at the cost of reduced low-voltage flexibility, while SN74LVC374APWR delivers superior speed and power efficiency in 3.3 V domains but sacrifices 5 V signal robustness and industrial temperature margin.

FAQ
Can 74AHC374D,118 operate reliably at 2.0 V supply?
Yes. The device is fully specified down to 2.0 V supply across −40 °C to +125 °C, with guaranteed tpd ≤ 12.7 ns (CL = 15 pF) and tsu ≥ 4.5 ns. Input thresholds scale with VCC, maintaining correct logic interpretation even at minimum voltage.
What happens to stored data when OE is asserted HIGH?
No change occurs to internal flip-flop states. OE only controls output drivers: asserting OE HIGH forces Q0–Q7 into high-impedance mode while preserving all latched D-input values. Data remains intact and immediately available upon OE deassertion.
Is the SO20 package RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes. 74AHC374D,118 in SOT163-1 (SO20) package meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is lead-free per JEDEC J-STD-609. Terminal finish is matte tin, compatible with standard SnPb and lead-free reflow profiles.
How does input overvoltage tolerance affect PCB layout?
Overvoltage tolerance (−0.5 V to +7.0 V) eliminates need for external clamping diodes when interfacing with 5 V signals in 3.3 V systems. However, layout must still minimize trace inductance on CP and OE lines to prevent ringing-induced false triggering at high edge rates.
