Product details
Overview
74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 from Texas Instruments is an octal edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs, designed for high-speed bus-oriented applications. It features 5.2 ns typical propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL), 25-Ω integrated output series resistors to suppress transmission-line reflections, and Ioff support for partial-power-down operation. It operates at 4.75–5.25 V and delivers ±15 mA output drive capability.
For engineers reviewing the 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 datasheet, 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 pinout, 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 application, or 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3-state bus interface capability, TTL-compatible input thresholds, matched rise/fall times, and guaranteed 250-MHz switching rate under load.
Technical Context
The 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 implements eight independent D-type latches triggered on the low-to-high transition of a common buffered clock (CP). Each flip-flop stores its respective D-input state meeting 1.5 ns setup and 1 ns hold time requirements. Output-enable (OE) controls all eight outputs simultaneously, placing them in high-impedance when asserted high.
Its internal edge-rate control circuitry and 25-Ω on-die series termination resistors reduce signal overshoot and ground bounce. The device supports Ioff, disabling outputs and blocking reverse current flow when VCC = 0 V - enabling safe hot-insertion and partial power-down in mixed-supply systems.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type register applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74FCT374TNSR | Same 20-pin SOIC package; identical pinout but lacks integrated 25-Ω series resistors and Ioff | Requires external termination resistors; not suitable for partial-power-down systems | Select only if cost sensitivity outweighs noise reduction and hot-swap requirements |
| 74ACT273SCX | Higher VCC range (4.5–5.5 V); no Ioff; 10 ns max tPD; CMOS input thresholds (VIH = 3.5 V) | Incompatible with TTL-level drivers; unsuitable for legacy 5-V bus interfaces | Prefer only in new designs with pure CMOS signaling and relaxed timing margins |
Compared with SN74FCT374TNSR and 74ACT273SCX, the 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 uniquely combines on-die termination, Ioff, and TTL compatibility - making it the only choice for noise-sensitive, mixed-power-state 5-V bus systems requiring drop-in reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4?
The 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 is characterized for a typical switching rate of 250 MHz under loaded conditions. Its 5.2 ns maximum propagation delay and 1 ns minimum hold time enable reliable operation at sustained 100 MHz bus clocks with design margin. Actual maximum frequency depends on trace length, load capacitance, and power supply stability - verified per Figure 1 timing diagrams in the SCCS040A datasheet.
Does the 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 support hot-swap or partial-power-down operation?
Yes, the 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 includes Ioff circuitry that disables outputs and limits reverse current to ±1 µA when VCC = 0 V. This allows safe insertion into live backplanes and operation in systems where other rails remain active while VCC is off - a key requirement for automotive body control modules and industrial hot-swap architectures.
What is the purpose of the 25-Ω output series resistance in the 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4?
The 25-Ω on-die series resistance in the 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 dampens transmission-line reflections on PCB traces, reducing overshoot, undershoot, and ground bounce. It eliminates the need for discrete 22–33 Ω resistors per output, saving board space and component cost while improving signal integrity on traces up to 15 cm long driving 50-pF loads.
Is the 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 pin-compatible with older FCT-family registers like the 74FCT374?
Yes, the 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 is functionally and pinout-compatible with the CY74FCT374T and SN74FCT374 series. It shares identical pin assignments, logic behavior, and timing architecture - allowing direct replacement in existing designs to improve noise performance without PCB changes, provided the 25-Ω termination and Ioff features are leveraged in the system design.
What are the absolute maximum ratings for the 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 supply voltage and input voltage?
The 74FCT2374CTSOCTE4 has an absolute maximum supply voltage (VCC) of –0.5 V to +7 V and absolute maximum DC input voltage of –0.5 V to +7 V relative to GND. Exceeding these limits risks permanent damage. For reliable operation, VCC must be maintained within 4.75–5.25 V, and input voltages must stay within the recommended VIH ≥ 2.0 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V ranges per the SCCS040A datasheet.
