Product details
Overview
74HCT109DB,112 from Nexperia is a dual positive-edge-triggered JK flip-flop with asynchronous set (SD) and reset (RD) inputs, complementary Q/Q̅ outputs per section, TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 5 V), 16-pin SO16 package (SOT109-1), and operation across -40 °C to +125 °C. It enables synchronous state control in digital clock-domain interfaces, bus arbitration logic, and counter enable circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT109DB,112 datasheet, 74HCT109DB,112 pinout, 74HCT109DB,112 application, or 74HCT109DB,112 equivalent, this device supports precise edge-triggered state capture in mixed-logic systems requiring TTL-level compatibility, low-power CMOS operation, and robust noise immunity - critical for industrial control sequencers and legacy interface bridging.
Technical Context
The 74HCT109DB,112 implements two independent JK flip-flops sharing no internal coupling; each features separate J, K, CP, SD, RD, Q, and Q̅ terminals. Its Schmitt-trigger clock input tolerates slow rise/fall times, while asynchronous SD/RD operate independently of CP and override all synchronous functions when asserted LOW.
State transitions follow the standard JK truth table: toggle on J=K=HIGH, hold on J=K=LOW, set on J=HIGH/K=LOW, and reset on J=LOW/K=HIGH - all conditioned by stable J/K inputs one setup time (tsu = 18 ns min at VCC = 4.5 V) before the LOW-to-HIGH clock edge.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with standard 5 V TTL and mixed-voltage logic systems without level-shifting. |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 20 ns to 53 ns (VCC = 4.5 V, CL = 50 pF) - defines maximum achievable clock frequency (fmax = 27 MHz min) in synchronous state machines. |
| Input Thresholds | VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V - guarantees reliable recognition of standard TTL output levels (e.g., 74LS, 74F) without external biasing. |
| Asynchronous Response | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 39 ns (SD/RD to Q/Q̅, VCC = 4.5 V) - enables sub-40 ns emergency state override for fault recovery or system initialization. |
| Power Dissipation | ICC ≤ 40 μA (static, VCC = 5.5 V) - supports low-quiescent-current designs in battery-backed or energy-constrained control modules. |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive ECUs, industrial PLC I/O modules, and outdoor telecom infrastructure. |
| ESD Robustness | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - reduces handling sensitivity during manual assembly and field rework in production environments. |
Pinout & Package
74HCT109DB,112 uses the SO16 plastic small outline package (SOT109-1), 16-pin, 3.9 mm body width, with gull-wing leads and pin 1 index marker.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 15 (1RD, 2RD) | Asynchronous Reset Input | Active-LOW signal forcing Q = LOW regardless of clock or J/K state - used for power-on initialization or error recovery. |
| 2, 14 (1J, 2J) | Synchronous Data Input | Controls next-state logic when HIGH/LOW with K; determines toggle/set/reset behavior on next clock edge. |
| 3, 13 (1K, 2K) | Synchronous Data Input | Paired with J to define state transition mode; J=K=1 enables toggle, J=1/K=0 enables set, etc. |
| 4, 12 (1CP, 2CP) | Clock Input | Positive-edge-triggered; Schmitt-trigger input accepts slow-rising clocks (e.g., RC-generated) without metastability risk. |
| 5, 11 (1SD, 2SD) | Asynchronous Set Input | Active-LOW signal forcing Q = HIGH independent of clock - provides immediate state assertion for sequencing control. |
| 6, 10 (1Q, 2Q) | True Output | Complementary to Q̅; drives downstream logic loads up to 4 mA (VOH ≥ 3.98 V at IO = −4 mA). |
| 7, 9 (1Q̅, 2Q̅) | Complement Output | Inverted version of Q; eliminates need for external inverters in toggle or feedback configurations. |
| 8 | GND | Reference ground plane for all internal circuitry and I/O; must be low-impedance connection to minimize switching noise. |
| 16 | VCC | Primary supply rail (4.5–5.5 V); decoupling capacitor (100 nF) required within 5 mm of pin for stable high-speed operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL-compatible input thresholds | Enables direct interfacing with legacy 74LS/74F families without level shifters or pull-ups - reduces BOM count and layout complexity. |
| Dual independent JK sections | Allows concurrent control of two state variables (e.g., direction + enable in motor drivers) without cross-talk or shared timing constraints. |
| Schmitt-trigger clock input | Accepts slow or noisy clock edges (e.g., from microcontroller GPIO or RC oscillators) while maintaining deterministic edge detection. |
| Asynchronous set/reset with priority | Guarantees immediate state override even during clock glitches or metastable conditions - essential for fail-safe system resets. |
| Wide temperature range (−40 °C to +125 °C) | Validated for use in engine control units, industrial automation cabinets, and base station RF modules without derating. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Sequencer | Digital Bus Arbitration |
|---|---|

Use Scenario: Controlling multi-step machine cycles (e.g., conveyor start → fill → seal → eject) with precise step advancement. IC Role / Device Role: Edge-triggered state register storing current step index; SD/RD used for emergency stop or cycle restart. Use Value: Guaranteed setup/hold timing (tsu = 18 ns, th = 3 ns) ensures deterministic state updates under variable scan-cycle jitter. |
Use Scenario: Managing shared data bus access among three microcontrollers in an embedded sensor hub. IC Role / Device Role: Toggle-mode JK flip-flop implementing round-robin grant logic with priority override via SD/RD. Use Value: Asynchronous reset (tPHL ≤ 39 ns) allows immediate bus release during fault detection, preventing lockup. |
| Legacy Interface Bridging | Configurable Counter Enable |
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual JK flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HCT112D,653 | Same SO16 package, but dual JK with *negative*-edge triggering (CP active on HIGH-to-LOW); identical VCC, temp, and I/O specs. | Requires inverted clock source or additional inverter; unsuitable where positive-edge alignment is mandatory (e.g., sync to MCU GPIO). | Select only if system clock is naturally falling-edge or inverter resources are available; otherwise, 74HCT109DB,112 ensures direct drop-in compatibility. |
| SN74HCT109DR | Texas Instruments variant in SOIC-16; identical logic function, pinout, and DC specs, but fmax = 25 MHz (vs. 27 MHz) and tpd = 22 ns (vs. 20 ns typ) at VCC = 4.5 V. | Slightly lower speed margin in high-frequency counters; same industrial temp rating (−40 °C to +125 °C) and TTL input compatibility. | Preferred for TI-centric BOMs or where second-source qualification is required; verify timing slack in 25+ MHz designs. |
Compared with 74HCT112D,653, the 74HCT109DB,112 avoids clock inversion overhead and guarantees positive-edge synchronization; versus SN74HCT109DR, it delivers tighter propagation delay and higher maximum frequency - critical for timing-critical state machines.

FAQ
Can 74HCT109DB,112 operate at 3.3 V supply?
No. The 74HCT109DB,112 is specified only for VCC = 4.5 V to 5.5 V. Its TTL-compatible input thresholds require minimum 4.5 V to guarantee VIH ≥ 2.0 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V per JEDEC JESD7A. Operation below 4.5 V risks incorrect logic interpretation and is outside guaranteed specifications.
What is the maximum clock frequency for reliable toggle operation?
The maximum guaranteed clock frequency for toggle mode is 27 MHz at VCC = 4.5 V and TA = +125 °C (fmax = 27 MHz min). At 25 °C and VCC = 5 V, typical performance reaches 61 MHz, but design margins must respect the worst-case 27 MHz limit for full temperature and voltage range compliance.
How does the Schmitt-trigger clock input improve system reliability?
The Schmitt-trigger on CP provides hysteresis (typ. 0.4 V at VCC = 5 V), allowing clean edge detection from slowly rising signals (e.g., RC-filtered microcontroller outputs or mechanical switch debounces) without multiple triggering or metastability - eliminating need for external conditioning circuits.
Are the asynchronous set and reset inputs truly independent of the clock?
Yes. SD and RD are fully asynchronous and active-LOW: asserting either forces immediate Q or Q̅ to defined states (HIGH or LOW) regardless of CP state, J/K values, or clock activity. This behavior is verified down to tPHL = 39 ns (max) from SD/RD assertion to output change at VCC = 4.5 V and TA = +125 °C.
