Product details
Overview
74HCT377PW,112 from Nexperia is an octal positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with data enable (E), designed for synchronous data latching in digital logic systems. It operates at 4.5 V to 5.5 V, delivers propagation delay as low as 14 ns (typ.) at 5.0 V/15 pF, and supports industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +125 °C) in TSSOP20 package. Used in address/data register staging, bus interface control, and state-holding circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT377PW,112 datasheet, 74HCT377PW,112 pinout, 74HCT377PW,112 application, or 74HCT377PW,112 equivalent, key selection factors include TTL-compatible input thresholds, 8-bit parallel edge-triggered storage, data enable gating behavior, and TSSOP20 thermal performance under sustained 5 V operation.
Technical Context
This device implements eight independent D-type flip-flops sharing a common clock (CP) and a single active-low data enable (E). When E is LOW, each Qn output captures the corresponding Dn input on the LOW-to-HIGH CP transition; when E is HIGH, outputs retain their prior state regardless of CP or Dn activity.
Input thresholds are TTL-compatible (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V), ensuring interoperability with legacy 5 V logic families. The internal structure includes clamp diodes on all inputs, enabling safe interfacing to voltages exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | 74HCT - TTL-compatible inputs, CMOS outputs; enables direct connection to 5 V microcontrollers and legacy logic without level shifters. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - matches standard 5 V system rails; not rated below 4.5 V unlike HC variants. |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 14 ns (typ.) at VCC = 5.0 V, CL = 15 pF - ensures reliable timing in high-speed control registers up to ~53 MHz fmax. |
| Set-up Time (tsu) | 12 ns (typ.) for Dn/E to CP - defines minimum data stability window before clock edge for deterministic capture. |
| Output Drive | ±4.0 mA (VOH/VOL) at VCC = 4.5 V - sufficient to drive 10 LS-TTL loads or multiple CMOS inputs in fan-out-critical paths. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood industrial and extended-temperature embedded applications. |
| Power Dissipation | CPD = 20 pF - enables accurate dynamic power estimation (PD = CPD × VCC² × fi) for thermal budgeting in dense PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP20 (SOT360-1) package: 20-pin thin shrink small outline, 4.4 mm body width, 0.65 mm pitch, lead-free and RoHS compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (E) | Data enable input | Active-LOW global gate: disables all flip-flop updates when HIGH; requires stable state ≥12 ns before CP rising edge. |
| 2–9, 12, 15–16, 19 (Q0–Q7) | Flip-flop outputs | Eight buffered, non-inverted latched outputs; each drives independently with CMOS-level swing and ±4 mA capability. |
| 3–4, 7–8, 13–14, 17–18 (D0–D7) | Data inputs | Eight asynchronous D inputs; sampled only when E = LOW and CP rises - no internal latching outside clock event. |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary 0 V return path for all I/O and supply currents; must be low-impedance for noise immunity and timing integrity. |
| 11 (CP) | Clock input | Single-edge-sensitive input: triggers simultaneous sampling of all enabled D inputs on LOW-to-HIGH transition only. |
| 20 (VCC) | Supply voltage | 5 V nominal power rail; decoupling capacitor (100 nF) required within 5 mm of pin for stable switching performance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL-compatible input thresholds | VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at 5 V - eliminates need for external level translators when interfacing with 74LS, 74F, or microcontroller GPIOs. |
| Common clock + master enable architecture | One CP and one E control all eight flip-flops - simplifies timing control in parallel data paths like address latches or status registers. |
| Clamp diode protected inputs | Enables safe overvoltage tolerance (VI > VCC) using series current-limiting resistors - useful in mixed-voltage board interfaces. |
| High noise immunity | Typical noise margin >1.2 V at VCC = 5 V - maintains robust operation in electrically noisy industrial environments. |
| ESD robustness | HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V - reduces handling sensitivity and improves field reliability without additional protection circuitry. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type flip-flop with data enable applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HCT377D,653 | SO20 package (7.5 mm width); higher thermal resistance (12.3 mW/K derating above 109 °C vs. 10.0 mW/K for TSSOP20). | Better suited for through-hole prototyping or legacy PCBs with SOIC footprints; lower pin density than TSSOP. | Select when board layout uses SOIC-20 land pattern or requires higher mechanical robustness in vibration-prone environments. |
| SN74HCT377N | PDIP-20 package; wider body (6.35 mm), larger footprint; identical electrical specs but higher parasitic capacitance (~25 pF vs. ~3.5 pF CI). | Used in educational labs, breadboard development, or legacy repair where DIP sockets are mandatory. | Choose only for hand-soldered prototypes or replacement in existing DIP-based systems - not recommended for new high-speed designs. |
Compared with 74HCT377D and SN74HCT377N, the 74HCT377PW,112 offers superior thermal performance in space-constrained layouts, lower input capacitance for faster edge rates, and compatibility with modern fine-pitch SMT assembly - making it optimal for production-grade industrial controllers and compact test equipment.

FAQ
What is the minimum recommended VCC for reliable operation of the 74HCT377PW,112?
The 74HCT377PW,112 is specified for 4.5 V to 5.5 V operation per its recommended conditions table. Operation below 4.5 V is not guaranteed: VIH drops to 1.6 V min at 4.5 V, but falls outside TTL compatibility at lower voltages, risking incorrect input recognition and metastable behavior. Always maintain VCC ≥ 4.5 V for compliant functionality.
Can the 74HCT377PW,112 be used with a 3.3 V microcontroller without level shifting?
No - the 74HCT377PW,112 requires 4.5–5.5 V VCC and has TTL-level inputs (VIH ≥ 2.0 V), but its outputs swing rail-to-rail (0 V to VCC). Driving a 3.3 V MCU input directly risks overvoltage damage. Use a dedicated level translator (e.g., TXB0108) or select a 74LVC377 variant for true 3.3 V compatibility.
How does the data enable (E) pin behave during partial updates?
When E is HIGH, all Q outputs hold their last latched state regardless of Dn or CP activity - no flip-flop updates occur. When E goes LOW, subsequent CP rising edges sample *all* Dn inputs simultaneously. There is no selective or individual enable per bit; E is a global gate controlling the entire octal register.
Is the 74HCT377PW,112 qualified for automotive applications?
No - this part is specified for industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +125 °C) but is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Nexperia explicitly states in its legal disclaimers that non-automotive-qualified products are unsuitable for safety-critical or life-support systems. For automotive use, specify AEC-Q100 grade parts such as 74HCT377PW-Q100.
