Product details
Overview
74AHC74BQ-Q100 from Nexperia is an automotive-qualified dual positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with asynchronous set (active LOW) and reset (active LOW), complementary Q/Q outputs, Schmitt-trigger clock inputs, and CMOS-level input compatibility. It operates from 2.0 V to 5.5 V, delivers ≤9.5 ns propagation delay at 5 V/50 pF, and supports 110 MHz maximum toggle frequency. It is used in automotive body control modules for synchronized signal latching and state retention.
For engineers reviewing the 74AHC74BQ-Q100 datasheet, 74AHC74BQ-Q100 pinout, 74AHC74BQ-Q100 application, or 74AHC74BQ-Q100 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification (-40 °C to +125 °C), DHVQFN14 package with side-wettable flanks for AOI, asynchronous control timing, and dual independent flip-flop architecture with guaranteed setup/hold times.
Technical Context
This device implements two independent edge-triggered D-type storage elements sharing no internal coupling-each has dedicated D, CP, SD, RD, Q, and Q̅ terminals. The Schmitt-trigger clock input enables robust operation with slow-rising or noisy clock signals, while asynchronous SD/RD inputs override clock action and force outputs independently.
It complies with JEDEC Standard No. 7-A and matches LSTTL pinouts. Input voltage tolerance exceeds VCC (up to 7.0 V), and static current consumption remains below 40 μA at 5.5 V across full temperature range, supporting low-power automotive subsystems requiring stable logic state retention.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
DHVQFN14 (SOT762-1) package: 2.5 × 3.0 × 0.85 mm body, 14-terminal quad flat no-lead with side-wettable flanks for automated optical inspection of solder joints; thermal pad (terminal 7) is electrically isolated and may be left floating or connected to GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1RD | Asynchronous reset (1st FF) | Active-LOW direct override of Q₁ output; functions independently of clock |
| 1D | Data input (1st FF) | Sampled on rising edge of 1CP; must be stable ≥5 ns before clock transition |
| 1CP | Clock input (1st FF) | Schmitt-triggered; LOW-to-HIGH edge triggers data capture and output update |
| 1SD | Asynchronous set (1st FF) | Active-LOW direct override forcing Q₁ = HIGH; overrides clock and data |
| 1Q / 1Q̅ | True/complement outputs (1st FF) | Non-inverted and inverted latched states; drive ±8 mA at 5 V |
| GND | Ground reference | Terminal 7 is thermal pad only - no electrical function unless explicitly connected |
| 2Q / 2Q̅ | True/complement outputs (2nd FF) | Independent of first flip-flop; identical timing and drive capability |
| 2SD / 2RD | Asynchronous set/reset (2nd FF) | Functionally identical to 1SD/1RD but isolated to second flip-flop |
| VCC | Supply voltage | Single rail powers both flip-flops; decoupling required within 3 mm of terminal 14 |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for automotive use from -40 °C to +125 °C ambient, including thermal cycling and humidity testing |
| Side-wettable flanks (SWF) | DHVQFN14 package enables 100% automated optical inspection of solder joint integrity on production PCBs |
| Input overvoltage tolerance | Accepts VI up to 7.0 V regardless of VCC - allows safe interfacing with higher-voltage sensors or legacy systems |
| Asynchronous control isolation | SD and RD inputs operate independently per flip-flop with no cross-talk or shared timing constraints |
| Low dynamic power dissipation | CPD = 12 pF - minimizes switching current in battery-sensitive modules like door ECUs and lighting controllers |
Applications

Use Scenario: Aligning frame start pulses between stereo camera modules for depth calculation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Edge-triggered latch captures master sync pulse and distributes aligned copies to two image processors. Use Value: Matched propagation delays (<±0.5 ns skew) ensure sub-pixel timing alignment critical for disparity mapping accuracy. |
Use Scenario: Capturing torque sensor transitions and holding state during CAN bus arbitration delays. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Stores last valid torque reading until next transmission cycle completes, preventing stale-data faults. Use Value: AEC-Q100 qualification ensures reliability in safety-critical EPS systems; low ICC (<40 μA) extends battery backup runtime. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74AHCT74BQ-Q100 | TTL-compatible inputs (VIH = 2.0 V min); otherwise identical pinout, timing, and packaging | Required when interfacing with legacy 5 V TTL logic families; not suitable for mixed 3.3 V/5 V CMOS systems | Select when driving from standard 5 V logic gates; verify input thresholds match source driver VOH |
| SN74LVC74AQPWRQ1 | Lower VCC range (1.65–5.5 V); 3.3 V optimized; tpd = 5.4 ns @ 3.3 V/50 pF; different pinout (TSSOP14) | Better performance at 3.3 V; lacks side-wettable flanks; requires PCB redesign for package replacement | Prefer for new 3.3 V designs needing faster timing; not drop-in due to pin mismatch and no SWF |
Compared with 74AHCT74BQ-Q100, the AHC version offers superior noise immunity and wider input voltage tolerance; compared with SN74LVC74AQPWRQ1, it provides AEC-Q100-compliant DHVQFN packaging with AOI support but trades ~2 ns speed at 3.3 V for broader voltage flexibility and automotive process validation.

FAQ
What is the minimum recommended VCC for reliable operation of the 74AHC74BQ-Q100?
The 74AHC74BQ-Q100 is specified for reliable operation down to 2.0 V, with guaranteed VIH ≥1.5 V and VOL ≤0.55 V at 2.0 V/8 mA load. Below 2.0 V, propagation delay increases significantly (>20 ns), and setup/hold margins degrade - operation below 2.0 V is outside specification and not recommended for automotive applications.
Can the thermal pad (terminal 7) be connected to ground in the 74AHC74BQ-Q100 DHVQFN package?
Yes - terminal 7 is a non-electrical thermal pad with no internal connection. It may be left floating or connected to GND via a thermal via array; if connected, it must remain at the same potential as the PCB ground plane and not introduce noise coupling. Soldering it improves thermal resistance by ~15 °C/W but does not affect electrical functionality.
How does the Schmitt-trigger clock input improve system-level noise immunity?
The Schmitt-trigger on CP provides hysteresis (~0.3 V typical at 5 V), rejecting voltage fluctuations below the threshold window. This eliminates false triggering from EMI-induced ringing on long traces or unshielded harnesses - a critical advantage in automotive environments where clock lines often run alongside high-current solenoid drivers.
Is the 74AHC74BQ-Q100 pin-compatible with the 74AHC74D-Q100 SO14 version?
Yes - both share identical pin functions and ordering logic per JEDEC MS-012 and SOT762-1 footprints. However, the DHVQFN14 (BQ) has no leads and requires reflow profile adjustments for side-wettable flank soldering, whereas SO14 (D) uses conventional gull-wing reflow. PCB layout and assembly processes differ, but netlist and schematic symbols are interchangeable.
