Product details
Overview
74HCT174PW,112 from Nexperia is a hex positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with asynchronous master reset, operating across 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply, delivering 21 ns typical propagation delay (CP to Q) at VCC = 4.5 V and CL = 50 pF, and supporting -40 °C to +125 °C industrial temperature range. It functions as a synchronous data latch in digital control logic, register staging, and clock-domain synchronization circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT174PW,112 datasheet, 74HCT174PW,112 pinout, 74HCT174PW,112 application, or 74HCT174PW,112 equivalent, this page delivers verified pin-level circuit roles, TTL-compatible input thresholds, real-world timing margins (tsu = 16 ns, th = 5 ns), thermal derating behavior for TSSOP16, and direct functional alternatives with documented parameter divergence.
Technical Context
The 74HCT174PW,112 implements six independent edge-triggered D flip-flops sharing a common clock (CP) and asynchronous master reset (MR) input. Each Dn–Qn channel operates on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CP, with MR overriding clock action to force all Q outputs LOW regardless of CP state.
Its TTL-level input compatibility (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 4.5 V–5.5 V) enables direct interfacing with legacy 5 V logic families, while its CMOS output structure provides VOH ≥ 3.98 V and VOL ≤ 0.26 V under 4 mA load-ensuring robust noise margin in mixed-signal control boards.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
TSSOP16 plastic thin shrink small outline package (SOT403-1), 16-pin, body width 4.4 mm, 0.65 mm lead pitch, designed for high-density PCB layouts with improved thermal performance over SO16 (derates at 8.5 mW/K above 91 °C).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (MR) | Asynchronous master reset input | Active-LOW signal forcing all six Q outputs to logic LOW independently of clock; critical for system initialization and fault recovery. |
| 2 (Q0) | Flip-flop 0 output | Non-inverted registered output synchronized to CP edge; used for status storage or pipeline stage buffering. |
| 3 (D0) | Flip-flop 0 data input | Primary data path for Q0; must meet tsu/th timing relative to CP edge to avoid metastability. |
| 4 (D1) | Flip-flop 1 data input | Independent data channel for Q1; allows parallel loading of six-bit register without shared bus contention. |
| 5 (Q1) | Flip-flop 1 output | Complementary output pair with D1; supports dual-rail or multi-stage shift register implementations. |
| 6 (D2) | Flip-flop 2 data input | Third bit lane; enables compact 6-bit parallel-in/parallel-out (PIPO) register functionality in single IC. |
| 7 (Q2) | Flip-flop 2 output | Direct output of D2 sample; used in address latching, LED pattern sequencing, or sensor data staging. |
| 8 (GND) | Ground reference | 0 V return path for all internal logic and I/O; requires low-inductance connection to minimize switching noise coupling. |
| 9 (CP) | Clock input | Edge-sensitive trigger (LOW-to-HIGH); all six flip-flops update simultaneously on same edge-enabling coherent multi-bit sampling. |
| 10 (Q3) | Flip-flop 3 output | Fourth Q output; supports 6-bit bus alignment in microcontroller peripheral interfaces or FPGA glue logic. |
| 11 (D3) | Flip-flop 3 data input | Fourth data lane; permits full 6-bit parallel load from data bus or multiplexed source. |
| 12 (Q4) | Flip-flop 4 output | Fifth Q output; used in counter chain feedback paths or as enable signal generator for downstream logic blocks. |
| 13 (D4) | Flip-flop 4 data input | Fifth data input; allows independent control of Q4 in test mode or configuration register applications. |
| 14 (D5) | Flip-flop 5 data input | Sixth and final data input; completes 6-bit register set for status word capture or command decoding. |
| 15 (Q5) | Flip-flop 5 output | Final registered output; often used as MSB in serial-to-parallel conversion or interrupt flag latching. |
| 16 (VCC) | Positive supply voltage | +4.5 V to +5.5 V power rail; decoupling capacitor (100 nF ceramic) required within 5 mm for stable switching performance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar hex D-type flip-flop with reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HCT174N | Dual-in-line package (DIP-16), wider body (6.35 mm), higher thermal resistance (θJA = 70 °C/W vs. 120 °C/W for TSSOP16), slower max f = 20 MHz at 125 °C. | Suitable for prototyping or through-hole production; unsuitable for high-density or thermally constrained PCBs. | Select for breadboard evaluation or legacy DIP-based systems where reflow compatibility is not required. |
| 74LVC174APW | Lower VCC range (1.65 V–3.6 V), LVCMOS inputs, 3.3 V only; tpd = 4.2 ns (typ) at 3.3 V but incompatible with 5 V logic without translation. | Optimized for 3.3 V FPGAs and low-voltage SoCs; cannot directly replace in 5 V systems without level shifters. | Choose only when migrating to 3.3 V architecture-avoid in mixed-voltage or 5 V-only designs due to input voltage mismatch. |
Compared with SN74HCT174N, the 74HCT174PW,112 offers superior thermal performance and higher frequency margin in surface-mount industrial designs; versus 74LVC174APW, it maintains full 5 V system compatibility at the cost of slightly higher propagation delay-making it the sole drop-in replacement for legacy 74HCT designs requiring TTL input thresholds and 5 V operation.

FAQ
Can the 74HCT174PW,112 operate reliably at 5.5 V supply?
Yes. The device is fully specified for VCC = 4.5 V to 5.5 V per JEDEC JESD7A, with static and dynamic parameters validated across this range-including VOH ≥ 3.7 V and VOL ≤ 0.4 V at 5.5 V and full temperature extremes. Absolute maximum rating is +7 V, but operation beyond 5.5 V voids parametric guarantees.
What is the minimum pulse width required on the MR pin for reliable reset?
The MR pin requires a minimum LOW pulse width of 20 ns at VCC = 4.5 V (per Table 7, tW for MR input), with guaranteed reset assertion down to 5 ns at VCC = 6.0 V. For robust operation across temperature and voltage, design for ≥30 ns MR pulse width to accommodate process variation and board trace delays.
Does the 74HCT174PW,112 support hot insertion or live insertion into a powered backplane?
No. The device lacks hot-swap protection features such as power-up reset, Ioff partial power-down, or bus-hold. Applying VCC before GND or asserting signals prior to full power ramp may cause latch-up or excessive ICC. Always sequence power (GND first, then VCC) and apply inputs only after VCC stabilizes within specification.
How does the TSSOP16 package affect thermal management compared to SO16?
The TSSOP16 (SOT403-1) has higher thermal resistance (θJA = 120 °C/W vs. 75 °C/W for SO16) but lower θJL (junction-to-lead) due to shorter internal leads. Its total power dissipation derates linearly at 8.5 mW/K above 91 °C, whereas SO16 derates at 12.4 mW/K above 110 °C-making TSSOP preferable for compact layouts with localized heatsinking, SO16 better for convection-cooled boards.
