Product details
Overview
74AHCT574BQ,115 from Nexperia is an octal positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with 3-state non-inverting outputs, designed for bus-oriented digital systems requiring synchronized data latching and output isolation. It operates at 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply, features TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V), supports −40 °C to +125 °C ambient range, and delivers 4.4 ns typical propagation delay (VCC = 5 V, CL = 15 pF) in DHVQFN20 package.
For engineers reviewing the 74AHCT574BQ,115 datasheet, 74AHCT574BQ,115 pinout, 74AHCT574BQ,115 application, or 74AHCT574BQ,115 equivalent, this device is selected for high-speed parallel data capture, address/data bus buffering, and level-translating register interfaces where precise edge-triggered storage and low-impedance/high-Z output control are required.
Technical Context
The 74AHCT574BQ,115 implements eight independent D-type flip-flops sharing a common clock (CP) and active-low output enable (OE). Each flip-flop captures the logic state of its D-input on the LOW-to-HIGH CP transition, meeting 3.0 ns set-up and 1.5 ns hold time requirements at 5 V. OE controls all eight outputs simultaneously without affecting internal latch states.
Its TTL-level inputs allow direct interfacing with legacy 5 V logic families, while overvoltage-tolerant inputs (up to 5.5 V) support mixed-voltage domain operation. The device uses CMOS circuitry for low static power (ICC ≤ 80 μA at VCC = 5.5 V) and exhibits balanced tPLH/tPHL propagation delays.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Type | Octal D-type flip-flop with 3-state non-inverting outputs |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with standard 5 V TTL systems |
| Input Thresholds | VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V - meets TTL voltage level definitions for reliable interfacing |
| Propagation Delay | 4.4 ns (typ.) at VCC = 5 V, CL = 15 pF - enables ≥110 MHz maximum clock frequency in bus applications |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for industrial and extended-temperature embedded control |
| Output Drive | ±8 mA at VCC = 4.5 V - sufficient for driving 50 pF loads with defined VOH/VOL margins |
| Package | DHVQFN20 (SOT764-1), 2.5 × 4.5 × 0.85 mm - thermal-enhanced, leadless, space-efficient for high-density PCBs |
Pinout & Package
DHVQFN20 (SOT764-1) package: 20-terminal, no-lead, thermally enhanced quad flat package with exposed die pad (non-soldered by default); body dimensions 2.5 mm × 4.5 mm × 0.85 mm; pin 1 index marked on top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference (0 V); thermal pad underneath is electrically isolated unless explicitly connected to GND |
| 2–9 | D0–D7 | Asynchronous data inputs; accept TTL-level signals; overvoltage tolerant to 5.5 V |
| 10 | CP | Clock input; positive-edge triggered; LOW-to-HIGH transition latches Dn inputs |
| 11 | OE | Active-low 3-state output enable; HIGH forces Q0–Q7 into high-impedance mode |
| 12–19 | Q0–Q7 | Non-inverting registered outputs; driven only when OE = LOW; otherwise high-Z |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply rail; must be decoupled locally due to fast switching transients |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL-compatible inputs | VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V - eliminates need for external level shifters when interfacing with 74LS/74F logic |
| Overvoltage-tolerant inputs | Rated to 5.5 V regardless of VCC - enables safe use in mixed-supply systems with 3.3 V control and 5 V data buses |
| Low propagation skew | tPLH/tPHL matching ≤ 0.5 ns - ensures deterministic timing across all eight outputs in synchronous bus designs |
| High noise immunity | Input hysteresis via Schmitt-trigger action - suppresses false triggering from slow-rising or noisy clock/data lines |
| Industrial temperature grade | Specified from −40 °C to +125 °C - supports operation in motor drives, PLC I/O modules, and outdoor telecom equipment |
Applications
| Industrial Bus Interface | Microcontroller Peripheral Latch |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Isolating and latching parallel address/data bus signals between a microcontroller and external memory or peripheral ICs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as a synchronizing register that captures bus data on CPU write strobe edges and presents stable outputs during memory access cycles. Use Value: Prevents bus contention and metastability by decoupling asynchronous peripheral timing from core CPU clock domain using edge-triggered storage. |
Use Scenario: Capturing GPIO port states or sensor readings before CPU read access in real-time control firmware. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides hardware-based snapshot capture of parallel input data on rising clock edge, enabling deterministic sampling independent of software latency. Use Value: Guarantees atomic read of multi-bit status registers (e.g., encoder position, fault flags) without bit skew or partial updates. |
| Legacy System Upgrade Interface | Test Equipment Signal Conditioning |
|
Use Scenario: Bridging modern FPGA I/O banks (3.3 V) to legacy 5 V TTL backplanes or instrumentation interfaces. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Functions as a level-translating, edge-synchronized buffer with 3-state control for bidirectional bus arbitration. Use Value: Enables drop-in replacement of obsolete 74LS574 while maintaining timing integrity and eliminating external voltage translators. |
Use Scenario: Capturing and holding parallel test vectors or calibration data in automated test equipment (ATE) signal path stages. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Serves as a precision timing-controlled latch to freeze analog-to-digital converter outputs or pattern generator states for measurement analysis. Use Value: Reduces jitter-induced sampling uncertainty by providing sub-5 ns propagation delay and tight output skew across all 8 bits. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AHCT574PWR | TSSOP20 package (SOT360-1); identical electrical specs; 4.4 mm body width vs. 4.5 mm | Better suited for manual rework or lower-volume prototyping due to gull-wing leads | Select when board assembly process favors鸥翼引线而非无引脚封装,或需更宽松的焊盘公差 |
| 74LVCH16374ADGG | 16-bit dual-rank version; 3.3 V only (1.65–3.6 V); LVCMOS inputs; different pinout | Targets higher-density 3.3 V systems; not pin-compatible or voltage-compatible | Choose only when migrating to 3.3 V architecture and requiring double the register width |
Compared with SN74AHCT574PWR, the 74AHCT574BQ,115 offers superior thermal performance and smaller footprint for high-density industrial PCBs; compared with 74LVCH16374ADGG, it maintains full 5 V TTL interoperability but provides half the channel count in a more compact package.

FAQ
What is the minimum pulse width required on the CP input?
The minimum clock pulse width (tW) for 74AHCT574BQ,115 is 5.0 ns at VCC = 4.5 V to 5.5 V with CL = 50 pF load. This ensures reliable edge detection and avoids metastability during setup/hold window violations. Pulse widths below this value may cause inconsistent latching behavior or failure to register input data.
Can OE be toggled while CP is active without affecting stored data?
Yes - the OE input is asynchronous and does not affect internal flip-flop states. When OE transitions HIGH, outputs enter high-impedance mode immediately (tdis ≤ 13.0 ns), but the latched D-input values remain preserved until the next CP edge. This allows dynamic bus release without data corruption.
Is the exposed thermal pad on the DHVQFN20 package required to be soldered?
No - the exposed pad (terminal 1) has no electrical function and requires no solder connection. If soldered, it must remain electrically floating or be connected to GND; intentional grounding improves thermal dissipation but is optional per datasheet guidance (SOT764-1 note).
How does the 74AHCT574BQ,115 differ from the 74AHC574BQ variant?
The 74AHCT574BQ,115 uses TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V), whereas 74AHC574BQ uses CMOS thresholds (VIH ≈ 3.85 V at VCC = 5.5 V). This makes the AHCT version directly compatible with legacy 5 V TTL logic families without level-shifting, unlike the AHC variant which requires clean 5 V signaling.
