Product details
Overview
74AHCT374PW,118 from Nexperia is an octal positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs, designed for bus-oriented data latching in mixed-voltage digital systems. It features TTL-compatible inputs (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V), 20-pin TSSOP package, and operates from -40 °C to +125 °C. Used in microcontroller peripheral interfacing, address/data bus buffering, and industrial control logic.
For engineers reviewing the 74AHCT374PW,118 datasheet, 74AHCT374PW,118 pinout, 74AHCT374PW,118 application, or 74AHCT374PW,118 equivalent, key selection criteria include edge-triggered register behavior, 3-state output enable timing (ten ≤ 14.0 ns, tdis ≤ 14.0 ns @ CL = 50 pF), TTL-level input compatibility, and high-temperature operation up to +125 °C.
Technical Context
This device implements eight independent D-type flip-flops synchronized on the LOW-to-HIGH clock transition, with a common active-low 3-state output enable (OE) that isolates outputs without affecting internal state. Each flip-flop samples its D-input only during the clock edge, meeting set-up (tsu = 2.5 ns) and hold (th = 2.5 ns) requirements at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V.
The 74AHCT374 variant uses TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V), enabling direct interface with legacy 5 V TTL logic while maintaining CMOS power efficiency. Its overvoltage-tolerant inputs (up to 5.5 V) support level translation in mixed-supply environments without external circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Function | Octal D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs, positive-edge triggered on CP |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with standard 5 V TTL systems |
| Input Compatibility | TTL-level inputs (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) - eliminates need for level-shifting buffers |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 4.3–10.4 ns @ CL = 15–50 pF - supports >85 MHz operation in 50 pF load conditions |
| Enable/Disable Timing | ten ≤ 14.0 ns, tdis ≤ 14.0 ns @ CL = 50 pF - enables fast bus turnaround in multiplexed systems |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for extended industrial and under-hood applications |
| ESD Protection | HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V - enhances robustness in automated assembly and field operation |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP20 plastic thin shrink small outline package (SOT360-1), 20 leads, body width 4.4 mm, 0.65 mm pitch - optimized for high-density PCB layouts and reflow compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | Active-low 3-state output enable | Drives all Q outputs to high-impedance when HIGH; no effect on internal flip-flop state |
| 2 (VCC) | Positive supply voltage | 4.5–5.5 V nominal; powers internal logic and output drivers |
| 3–4, 7–8, 13–14, 17–18 (D0–D7) | Data inputs | Asynchronous inputs sampled on rising CP edge; TTL-compatible thresholds |
| 5–6, 9, 12, 15–16, 19 (Q0–Q7) | 3-state flip-flop outputs | Driven HIGH/LOW or tri-stated based on OE and registered D-state |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | 0 V return path for supply and signal integrity; decoupling required near VCC/GND pair |
| 11 (CP) | Clock input | LOW-to-HIGH edge triggers simultaneous capture of all D inputs into respective registers |
| 20 (VCC) | Positive supply voltage | Same as Pin 2 - dual VCC pins reduce supply impedance and improve noise immunity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL-compatible input thresholds | VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V - enables direct connection to 5 V TTL outputs without level shifters |
| Overvoltage-tolerant inputs | Withstands up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC - allows safe interfacing with higher-voltage buses or hot-swap scenarios |
| Fast 3-state control | ten ≤ 14.0 ns, tdis ≤ 14.0 ns @ CL = 50 pF - minimizes bus contention windows in shared-data-path systems |
| Extended temperature range | Specified from -40 °C to +125 °C - supports deployment in industrial automation, motor drives, and automotive non-safety ECUs |
| Low dynamic power | CPD = 12 pF - reduces switching current and heat generation in high-frequency bus applications |
Applications
| Microcontroller Bus Interface | Industrial PLC I/O Expansion |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Latching parallel address/data signals between an MCU and external memory or peripheral ICs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronizes asynchronous bus writes using CP edge; OE controls bidirectional bus direction. Use Value: Enables clean separation of address setup and data hold timing, eliminating race conditions in 8-bit parallel interfaces. |
Use Scenario: Isolating sensor input or actuator output lines in modular PLC backplanes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Registers sensor status bits and gates outputs via OE under PLC scan-cycle control. Use Value: Provides deterministic sampling at scan boundaries and prevents bus contention during module hot-swap or fault isolation. |
| Legacy System Data Translation | Test Equipment Signal Conditioning |
|
Use Scenario: Interfacing modern 3.3 V FPGA I/O banks to legacy 5 V TTL logic subsystems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as a unidirectional level translator with registered timing - D inputs accept 5 V TTL, Q outputs drive 3.3 V CMOS loads. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete resistor networks or dedicated level shifters while preserving setup/hold margins. |
Use Scenario: Capturing and holding test stimulus patterns in automated test equipment (ATE) channel drivers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Stores pattern data on CP edge; OE enables synchronized release to DUT pins across multiple channels. Use Value: Ensures sub-10 ns skew between 8 parallel output channels during high-speed functional testing. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AHCT374PWR | TTL-compatible inputs, same 20-pin TSSOP package, but TI's version specifies fmax = 130 MHz @ CL = 15 pF vs. Nexperia's 140 MHz | Identical bus-latching function; TI part has tighter AC specs at lower loads but identical DC thresholds | Select for designs requiring marginally faster propagation in light-load (<20 pF) systems |
| 74AHC374PW,118 | CMOS-level inputs (VIH = 3.85 V min), wider VCC range (2.0–5.5 V), but lacks TTL compatibility | Suitable for pure CMOS systems or mixed 3.3/5 V domains where input thresholds match host logic | Choose when interfacing to 3.3 V microcontrollers or FPGAs with CMOS I/O standards |
Compared with SN74AHCT374PWR, the 74AHCT374PW,118 offers superior high-temperature stability (same +125 °C rating) and tighter disable-time consistency across voltage corners; versus 74AHC374PW,118, it trades wider supply flexibility for guaranteed interoperability with legacy TTL signaling.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the 74AHCT374PW,118?
The device supports up to 140 MHz at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V with 15 pF load, and 75 MHz at 50 pF load per the datasheet's fmax specifications. Real-world achievable frequency depends on PCB layout, termination, and fan-out; for sustained 100+ MHz operation, keep trace lengths short and use controlled-impedance routing.
Can the 74AHCT374PW,118 operate with a 3.3 V supply?
No - the 74AHCT374PW,118 is specified only for 4.5–5.5 V operation. Its TTL-compatible inputs require VIH ≥ 2.0 V, but internal logic and output drive strength are not characterized below 4.5 V. For 3.3 V systems, use the pin-compatible 74AHC374PW,118 instead.
How does the OE pin behave during power-up or brownout conditions?
OE is active-low and internally pulled down on power-up in most Nexperia logic devices, placing outputs in high-impedance state until firmware asserts OE low. However, no internal pull-down is guaranteed per datasheet - external 10 kΩ pull-down on OE is recommended to prevent bus contention during undervoltage events.
Is the 74AHCT374PW,118 suitable for automotive applications?
No - this part is not AEC-Q100 qualified and lacks automotive-grade screening, qualification testing, or guaranteed PPAP documentation. While rated for -40 °C to +125 °C, it is intended for industrial and commercial use only; automotive applications require explicitly qualified variants such as Nexperia's Automotive AHCT series.
