Product details
Overview
74FCT574ATQG8 from Renesas Electronics (formerly IDT) is an octal D-type register with 3-state outputs, designed for high-speed data latching and bus interface in industrial control and embedded systems. It features TTL-compatible inputs/outputs (VOH = 3.3V typ., VOL = 0.3V typ.), ±15mA/48mA output drive, 5V supply operation, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C).
For engineers reviewing the 74FCT574ATQG8 datasheet, 74FCT574ATQG8 pinout, 74FCT574ATQG8 application, or 74FCT574ATQG8 equivalent, key selection criteria include propagation delay (≤5.2 ns), output enable/disable timing (≤5.5 ns), low input leakage (≤1 µA), and SOIC-20 package compatibility with legacy 74-series logic designs.
Technical Context
The 74FCT574ATQG8 implements eight edge-triggered D flip-flops sharing a common clock (CP) and active-low 3-state output enable (OE). Data is latched on the low-to-high transition of CP, and outputs enter high-impedance state when OE is high.
It uses advanced dual-metal CMOS technology to achieve true TTL voltage compatibility while maintaining CMOS power efficiency (ICC ≤ 1 mA typ.). The device meets JEDEC Std. 18 and supports live insertion via power-off disable outputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | FCT Fast CMOS - enables 5V TTL system interoperability without level shifters |
| Propagation Delay (tPLH/tPHL) | ≤5.2 ns at CL = 50 pF - supports >100 MHz clock domains in latch-critical paths |
| Output Drive | –15 mA IOH / +48 mA IOL - drives heavy capacitive loads or multiple TTL inputs directly |
| Supply Voltage | 5.0 V ±5% - matches standard industrial 5V rail with no regulation overhead |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for extended industrial environments including factory automation |
| Input Leakage | ≤1 µA max - ensures reliable static logic levels in low-power standby modes |
| Quiescent Current | ≤1 mA max - reduces system-level idle power in always-on control modules |
Pinout & Package
74FCT574ATQG8 is packaged in a 20-pin Small Outline IC (SOIC-20) with standard 0.3-inch body width and 0.050-inch lead pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10 | D0–D7 Data Inputs | Asynchronous parallel data inputs latched on CP rising edge |
| 6 | CP Clock Pulse | Edge-triggered clock; data sampled on LOW-to-HIGH transition only |
| 11 | OE Output Enable (active low) | Controls all Qx/Qx outputs simultaneously; high = high-Z, low = enabled |
| 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 | Q0–Q7 True Outputs | 3-state buffered outputs reflecting registered D-input values when OE is low |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply terminal (5V) |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference for logic and output drivers |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL-compatible I/O thresholds | VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max - eliminates need for external level translation in mixed-logic systems |
| High-drive 3-state outputs | 48 mA sink capability - interfaces directly with multiple 74LS loads or LED indicators without buffers |
| Live-insertion support | Outputs disable during power-down - prevents bus contention when hot-swapping boards in backplane systems |
| Low dynamic power consumption | ICCD ≤ 0.25 mA/MHz - minimizes switching noise and thermal load in dense logic arrays |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D register applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74F574N | Higher ICC (up to 25 mA), slower tPLH (15 ns max), no guaranteed industrial temp range | Limited to commercial temp (0°C to +70°C); unsuitable for extended ambient deployments | Select only for cost-sensitive, non-extended-temp legacy replacements where speed is not critical |
| 74AC574PC | Lower drive (–24 mA IOH), higher VIH (3.15 V min), 3.3V/5V tolerant inputs | Requires 3.3V supply or level-shifting for 5V systems; incompatible with pure 5V TTL fanout requirements | Prefer for mixed-voltage systems with 3.3V core logic; avoid when driving legacy TTL loads directly |
Compared with SN74F574N and 74AC574PC, the 74FCT574ATQG8 uniquely balances industrial temperature operation, TTL-compatible drive strength, and sub-6 ns timing-making it optimal for new designs requiring reliability across harsh environments without sacrificing speed or compatibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the 74FCT574ATQG8?
The 74FCT574ATQG8 does not specify a maximum clock frequency in its datasheet. Instead, timing is defined by minimum pulse width (tW ≥ 5 ns) and setup/hold times (tSU = 2 ns, tH = 1.5 ns). These parameters support reliable operation up to approximately 100 MHz in typical PCB layouts with controlled trace impedance and 50 pF load.
Does the 74FCT574ATQG8 support mixed-voltage operation (e.g., 3.3V inputs with 5V supply)?
No. The 74FCT574ATQG8 is a 5V-only device. Its inputs are TTL-compatible (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) but not 3.3V-tolerant. Applying 3.3V logic signals is acceptable since they exceed the VIH threshold; however, the device must be powered at 5.0 V ±5% and cannot operate from a 3.3V supply rail.
Is the 74FCT574ATQG8 pin-compatible with the 74LS574?
Yes. The 74FCT574ATQG8 uses the same 20-pin SOIC footprint and identical pinout as the 74LS574, including D0–D7, CP, OE, Q0–Q7, VCC, and GND assignments. This allows direct PCB replacement without layout changes, provided thermal and timing margins accommodate the faster FCT performance.
What is the meaning of "Q" and "G8" in the part number 74FCT574ATQG8?
In 74FCT574ATQG8, "Q" denotes the Quarter-size Small Outline Package (QSOP-20), and "G8" indicates green (lead-free, RoHS-compliant) finish per Renesas' ordering convention. The "AT" suffix specifies the industrial-grade temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and FCT logic family speed grade.
Can the 74FCT574ATQG8 drive multiple 74LS inputs directly?
Yes. With IOL = +48 mA and each 74LS input drawing ~0.4 mA, the 74FCT574ATQG8 can drive up to 120 LS loads per output. In practice, trace capacitance and timing constraints typically limit fanout to 10–20 LS loads while maintaining <5 ns propagation delay and signal integrity.
