Product details
Overview
74LV174DB,112 from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Philips) is a low-voltage CMOS hex D-type flip-flop with asynchronous master reset and positive-edge clock triggering. It provides six independent storage elements operating from 1.0 V to 5.5 V supply, delivers 77 MHz maximum clock frequency at VCC = 3.3 V, features 16 ns typical CP-to-Q propagation delay, and supports TTL-level inputs at 2.7–3.6 V - used in synchronous logic control, data latching, and register staging in industrial microcontroller interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the 74LV174DB,112 datasheet, 74LV174DB,112 pinout, 74LV174DB,112 application, or 74LV174DB,112 equivalent, key selection criteria include its wide VCC range (1.0–5.5 V), guaranteed operation down to 1.2 V, asynchronous MR input behavior, edge-triggered timing margins, and compatibility with legacy 74HC/HCT174 layouts while enabling lower-power operation.
Technical Context
The 74LV174DB,112 implements six identical edge-triggered D flip-flops sharing a common clock (CP) and active-low master reset (MR). Each flip-flop transfers the state of its D input to Q on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CP, provided setup and hold times are met - with tsu = 13 ns and th = 5 ns at VCC = 3.3 V. The MR signal forces all Q outputs LOW independently of CP or D states.
It uses Si-gate CMOS technology optimized for low-voltage operation (1.0–3.6 V), maintains pin and functional compatibility with 74HC/HCT174, and exhibits standard output drive capability (±25 mA per output at VCC = 3.0 V). Its dynamic power dissipation is characterized by CPD = 17 pF per flip-flop at VCC = 3.3 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.0 V to 5.5 V - enables direct interface with 1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic domains |
| fmax | 77 MHz at VCC = 3.3 V - supports high-speed register staging in digital control loops |
| tPHL/tPLH (CP→Q) | 16 ns typical at VCC = 3.3 V, CL = 15 pF - defines minimum clock period for reliable state capture |
| tsu (D→CP) | 13 ns min at VCC = 3.0–3.6 V - constrains maximum data path delay before clock edge |
| th (D→CP) | 5 ns min at VCC = 3.0–3.6 V - limits minimum data hold time after clock edge |
| IO (output sink/source) | ±25 mA per output at VCC = 3.0 V - drives standard TTL loads and small capacitive buses |
| CI | 3.5 pF - minimizes loading on upstream drivers and reduces switching noise coupling |
Pinout & Package
74LV174DB,112 is housed in a 16-pin plastic SSOP (Shrink Small Outline Package), Type II, body width 5.3 mm, per package drawing SOT338-1. Pin pitch is 0.65 mm, and the package is RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | MR | Asynchronous master reset - active LOW; overrides clock and data to force all Q outputs LOW immediately |
| 2,5,7,10,12,15 | Q0–Q5 | True (non-inverted) flip-flop outputs - provide registered data state on each clock edge |
| 3,4,6,11,13,14 | D0–D5 | Data inputs - sampled one setup time before CP rising edge and latched on edge |
| 8 | GND | Ground reference - must be connected to system 0 V plane with low-impedance path |
| 9 | CP | Positive-edge clock input - triggers simultaneous latch of all six D inputs on LOW-to-HIGH transition |
| 16 | VCC | Positive supply - powers internal logic and output buffers; decoupling capacitor required near pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide VCC range (1.0–5.5 V) | Supports mixed-voltage system integration without level shifters in 1.2 V–5 V domains |
| Pin/function compatibility with 74HC/HCT174 | Enables drop-in replacement in existing designs while reducing supply voltage and dynamic power |
| Asynchronous MR with immediate effect | Allows deterministic system-wide reset without waiting for next clock edge - critical for fault recovery |
| Low ground bounce (VOLP = 0.8 V typ) | Reduces noise coupling into sensitive analog sections when multiple outputs switch simultaneously |
| TTL-input compatibility at 2.7–3.6 V | Permits direct interfacing with legacy 3.3 V TTL outputs without external translators |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar D-type flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74LV174PW,118 | TSSOP-16 package (4.4 mm width); identical electrical specs and pinout | Higher board density; requires finer-pitch reflow profile | Select for space-constrained PCBs where thermal performance permits TSSOP mounting |
| SN74LV174AD | TI-manufactured part; same logic function, VCC range, and AC specs; minor differences in VOH/VOL limits at VCC = 1.2 V | Validated for automotive AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C) per TI documentation | Select when automotive qualification or alternate supply chain diversity is required |
Compared with 74LV174DB,112, the 74LV174PW,118 offers identical functionality in a smaller footprint but demands tighter assembly control, while the SN74LV174AD adds automotive qualification and sourcing flexibility without altering core timing or voltage behavior.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage at which 74LV174DB,112 guarantees correct operation?
The 74LV174DB,112 is guaranteed to function correctly down to VCC = 1.2 V for DC characteristics, with full functionality including setup/hold timing and output drive specified across –40°C to +125°C. While the device may operate at 1.0 V, only DC parameters are validated below 1.2 V per the datasheet's recommended operating conditions table.
Does 74LV174DB,112 support true TTL input levels across its entire supply range?
No - 74LV174DB,112 accepts TTL input levels only when VCC is between 2.7 V and 3.6 V, as explicitly stated in the FEATURES section. Outside this range, input thresholds scale with VCC (VIH = 0.7×VCC, VIL = 0.3×VCC), so direct TTL interfacing is not supported at 1.2 V, 1.8 V, or 5 V supply.
Can the master reset (MR) input of 74LV174DB,112 be used as a synchronous clear?
No - the MR input of 74LV174DB,112 is asynchronous and active LOW. It forces all Q outputs LOW immediately upon assertion, regardless of CP state or timing. There is no provision for synchronous reset; the device lacks a dedicated synchronous clear input or enable-controlled reset path.
What is the maximum capacitive load 74LV174DB,112 can drive while maintaining specified propagation delay?
The 74LV174DB,112's AC characteristics - including tPHL/tPLH = 16 ns typical - are specified with CL = 15 pF. Driving loads beyond 15 pF increases propagation delay nonlinearly; for example, at CL = 50 pF, tPHL/tPLH rises to 25 ns (min) at VCC = 3.0–3.6 V. Layout parasitics must be included in total CL budget.
Is 74LV174DB,112 pin-compatible with the 74HC174 and 74HCT174?
Yes - the 74LV174DB,112 is explicitly described as "pin and function compatible with the 74HC/HCT174" in the DESCRIPTION section. Pin numbering, signal names (MR, CP, D0–D5, Q0–Q5, VCC, GND), and logical behavior match identically, enabling direct substitution in existing PCB layouts designed for those families.
