Product details
Overview
74HCT109N,652 from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Philips) is a dual positive-edge-triggered JK flip-flop with asynchronous set and reset inputs, operating at 4.5 V supply, delivering 61 MHz maximum clock frequency, 17 ns typical CP-to-Q propagation delay, and standard-output drive capability for synchronous logic control in digital systems.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT109N,652 datasheet, 74HCT109N,652 pinout, 74HCT109N,652 application, or 74HCT109N,652 equivalent, this page delivers verified functional behavior, timing constraints, package mapping to DIP16, and real-world design implications for edge-triggered state storage in industrial control and instrumentation circuits.
Technical Context
The 74HCT109N,652 implements two independent JK flip-flops sharing no internal coupling, each with separate J, K, CP, SD, RD, Q, and Q̅ terminals. Its TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 4.5 V) ensure interoperability with legacy LSTTL logic while maintaining CMOS power efficiency.
Schmitt-trigger action on clock inputs enables robust operation with slow-rising or noisy clock edges; asynchronous SD and RD inputs override clock activity and assert active-LOW logic levels independent of CP timing, supporting immediate state initialization or clearing without clock synchronization.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | 74HCT - TTL-compatible CMOS with 4.5–5.5 V operation and LSTTL input thresholds |
| Max Clock Frequency | 61 MHz at VCC = 4.5 V - defines highest reliable toggle rate for synchronous counters or shift registers |
| CP-to-Q Propagation Delay | 17 ns typical (CL = 15 pF, VCC = 5 V) - determines minimum clock period and setup margin in pipelined designs |
| SD/RD-to-Q Propagation Delay | 14 ns typical (CL = 15 pF, VCC = 5 V) - sets minimum pulse width for reliable asynchronous initialization |
| Input Capacitance | 3.5 pF - limits capacitive loading on driving gates and supports high fan-out without signal degradation |
| Power Dissipation Capacitance | 22 pF per flip-flop - enables accurate dynamic power estimation using PD = CPD × VCC² × fi + Σ(CL × VCC² × fo) |
Pinout & Package
74HCT109N,652 is supplied in a 16-pin plastic dual in-line package (DIP16), compliant with JEDEC MS-001, with 0.3-inch body width and 0.1-inch lead pitch. Pin 1 is marked by a notch or dot; pins are numbered counter-clockwise from top-left corner when viewed from component side.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 15 | 1RD, 2RD - Asynchronous Reset (active LOW) | Forces Q = LOW regardless of clock or J/K state; requires stable LOW ≥16 ns before CP edge for reliable assertion |
| 2, 14, 3, 13 | 1J, 2J, 1K, 2K - Synchronous Data Inputs | J and K determine next-state transition on rising CP edge; must be stable ≥18 ns before CP edge (tsu) |
| 4, 12 | 1CP, 2CP - Positive-Edge Clock Input | Triggers state update on LOW-to-HIGH transition; Schmitt-trigger input tolerates rise/fall times up to 100 ns |
| 5, 11 | 1SD, 2SD - Asynchronous Set (active LOW) | Forces Q = HIGH regardless of clock or J/K state; removal time (trem) ≥16 ns required before next CP edge |
| 6, 10 | 1Q, 2Q - True Outputs | Standard-output drive (±4 mA at VCC = 4.5 V); complementary to Q̅ outputs for differential signaling or feedback |
| 7, 9 | 1Q̅, 2Q̅ - Complementary Outputs | Provides inverted logic state; enables direct connection to enable/disable logic without external inverters |
| 8 | GND | Reference ground for all internal circuitry and I/O; must be low-impedance path to minimize noise coupling |
| 16 | VCC | Positive supply (4.5–5.5 V); decoupling capacitor (100 nF ceramic) required within 10 mm of pin for stable operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent JK flip-flops | Enables two-bit synchronous state storage in single IC; eliminates need for discrete gate-based latches |
| Asynchronous set/reset (active LOW) | Supports immediate system initialization or fault recovery without waiting for clock edge or J/K configuration |
| TTL-compatible input thresholds | Interoperates directly with 74LS/74ALS families without level-shifting; VIH = 2.0 V min ensures noise margin >400 mV |
| Schmitt-trigger clock input | Accepts slow or noisy clocks (e.g., from mechanical switches or RC oscillators) without metastability risk |
| Standard-output drive capability | Drives up to 10 LS-TTL loads or 20 HCMOS inputs; sufficient for direct connection to bus transceivers or LED drivers |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage for the 74HCT109N,652?
The 74HCT109N,652 operates over a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V. Operation outside this range may cause undefined behavior or permanent damage. The device is not rated for 3.3 V operation - attempting to power the 74HCT109N,652 at 3.3 V will result in non-functional inputs due to insufficient VIH threshold margin.
Does the 74HCT109N,652 support asynchronous reset during clock activity?
Yes, the 74HCT109N,652 supports fully asynchronous reset via pins 1 and 15 (1RD and 2RD). These active-LOW inputs force Q = LOW independently of clock state or timing, provided the reset pulse width meets the minimum 16 ns requirement. This behavior is guaranteed in the 74HCT109N,652 datasheet under all valid VCC and temperature conditions.
Can the 74HCT109N,652 be used as a D-type flip-flop?
Yes, the 74HCT109N,652 can function as a D-type flip-flop by connecting J and K inputs together on each section. When J = K = HIGH, the output toggles; when J = K = LOW, the output holds; tying J to D and K to D̅ configures true D-latch behavior. This configuration is explicitly supported in the 74HCT109N,652 functional table and requires no external components.
What is the meaning of "Schmitt-trigger clock input" in the 74HCT109N,652?
The Schmitt-trigger clock input in the 74HCT109N,652 provides hysteresis (typically 0.5 V) on the CP pin, enabling reliable edge detection even with slow-rising or noisy clock signals - such as those from RC oscillators or mechanical switch debouncing circuits. This feature is intrinsic to the 74HCT109N,652 silicon design and does not require external components.
Is the 74HCT109N,652 pin-compatible with the older 74LS109?
Yes, the 74HCT109N,652 is pin-compatible with the 74LS109 in DIP16 packaging, including identical pin numbering, terminal functions, and physical dimensions. This allows direct replacement in existing PCB layouts without modification - a key design advantage confirmed in the Philips 74HC/HCT109 datasheet under "pin compatible with low power Schottky TTL (LSTTL)".
