Product details
Overview
74HCT273D-Q100 from Nexperia is an automotive-grade octal positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with synchronous data capture and asynchronous master reset (MR). It operates across -40 °C to +125 °C, supports 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply, features TTL-compatible inputs, and delivers ≤45 ns propagation delay (VCC = 4.5 V, CL = 50 pF), enabling reliable data latching in engine control units and ADAS sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT273D-Q100 datasheet, 74HCT273D-Q100 pinout, 74HCT273D-Q100 application, or 74HCT273D-Q100 equivalent, this device is selected for deterministic edge-triggered state capture in safety-critical automotive logic systems requiring AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, robust noise immunity, and precise setup/hold timing (tsu = 12 ns, th = 3 ns at VCC = 4.5 V).
Technical Context
This device implements eight independent D-type flip-flops sharing a common clock (CP) and active-low master reset (MR), with all outputs updated synchronously on the LOW-to-HIGH CP transition. Input clamping diodes enable interface to voltages exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors.
It adheres to JEDEC standards JESD8C (2.7–3.6 V) and JESD7A (2.0–6.0 V), supports CMOS-level power efficiency (<160 μA ICC at 125 °C), and achieves latch-up immunity >100 mA per JESD78 Class II Level B - critical for under-hood automotive environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Function | Octal positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with asynchronous master reset |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - matches standard 5 V automotive rail with ±0.5 V tolerance margin |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | ≤45 ns at VCC = 4.5 V, CL = 50 pF - ensures timing closure in 20 MHz+ synchronous logic |
| Set-up / Hold Time | tsu = 12 ns, th = 3 ns at VCC = 4.5 V - defines minimum data stability window before/after CP edge |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for engine bay and transmission control module placement |
| AEC-Q100 Grade | Grade 1 - certified for automotive powertrain and chassis applications per AEC standard |
| Input Compatibility | TTL-level - interfaces directly with legacy 5 V microcontrollers and logic without level shifters |
Pinout & Package
74HCT273D-Q100 uses the SO20 (SOT163-1) package: plastic small outline, 20 leads, 7.5 mm body width, with gull-wing leads and standard 1.27 mm pitch.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | MR | Active-low master reset - forces all Qn outputs LOW independently of clock or data |
| 2, 5, 6, 9, 12, 15, 16, 19 | Q0–Q7 | Flip-flop outputs - reflect Dn state sampled on LOW-to-HIGH CP transition |
| 3, 4, 7, 8, 13, 14, 17, 18 | D0–D7 | Data inputs - sampled at CP rising edge if setup/hold times met |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference - return path for all internal logic and output currents |
| 11 | CP | Clock input - rising-edge trigger for synchronous data capture across all eight stages |
| 20 | VCC | Supply voltage - powers internal CMOS circuitry and drives output loads |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for automotive powertrain and chassis systems operating from -40 °C to +125 °C |
| TTL-compatible input thresholds | VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V - enables direct interfacing with 5 V MCU GPIOs |
| Clamped inputs with ESD protection | HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V - protects against assembly and in-system electrostatic discharge events |
| Low dynamic power dissipation | CPD = 23 pF - limits switching power to <1.3 mW at 10 MHz (VCC = 5 V), reducing thermal load |
| High noise immunity | Typical VIH-VIL margin >1.2 V at VCC = 5 V - suppresses false triggering in electrically noisy vehicle environments |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HCT273PW-Q100 | TSSOP20 package (4.4 mm width); 10.0 mW/K thermal derating above 100 °C | Better PCB space efficiency; lower thermal mass but reduced heat dissipation vs. SO20 | Select for compact layouts where board area is constrained and ambient temperature remains ≤100 °C |
| SN74HCT273QPWRQ1 | Texas Instruments variant; identical function, timing, and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 rating; different pinout (MR on Pin 19, CP on Pin 3) | Not pin-compatible; requires PCB redesign and layout verification | Choose only when TI supply chain assurance or dual-sourcing strategy mandates TI branding |
Compared with 74HCT273D-Q100, the PW variant trades thermal robustness for footprint reduction, while the TI SN74HCT273QPWRQ1 offers functional equivalence but demands full hardware revalidation due to non-identical pin mapping and packaging.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by 74HCT273D-Q100?
The device supports up to 24 MHz maximum clock frequency at VCC = 4.5 V and Tamb = +125 °C (fmax = 24 MHz), verified under recommended operating conditions with CL = 50 pF. At 25 °C and VCC = 4.5 V, typical fmax reaches 56 MHz. This rating assumes proper PCB layout, decoupling, and signal integrity - no external clock conditioning is required.
Can 74HCT273D-Q100 operate with a 3.3 V supply?
No - 74HCT273D-Q100 is specified only for 4.5 V to 5.5 V operation per its recommended conditions table. Using 3.3 V violates the minimum VCC requirement and results in undefined input thresholds (VIH/VIL), unreliable output drive (VOH/VOL), and potential functional failure. For 3.3 V systems, consider the 74LVC273 or automotive-grade 74LVC273-Q100 instead.
How does the master reset (MR) interact with the clock input?
MR is asynchronous and dominant: a LOW on MR forces all Qn outputs LOW immediately, regardless of CP state or timing. The reset overrides ongoing clock activity and holds outputs low until MR returns HIGH. Once MR is deasserted, the next LOW-to-HIGH CP transition captures Dn inputs - no additional clock edge is needed to restore normal operation.
Is the SO20 package of 74HCT273D-Q100 compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes - the SOT163-1 (SO20) package is qualified for standard lead-free reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020, with peak temperature up to 260 °C for ≤60 seconds. Its plastic body and gull-wing leads withstand IPC-A-610 Class 3 assembly requirements, and the device's 12.3 mW/K thermal derating above 109 °C ensures safe operation post-reflow in automotive thermal environments.
