Product details
Overview
74V1G79CTR from STMicroelectronics is a single positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop in SOT323-5L package, operating from 2V to 5.5V supply, with 180MHz max clock frequency at 5V, 8mA symmetrical output drive, and 1µA quiescent current at 25°C - used for data synchronization and clock-domain interfacing in portable 3.3V/5V mixed-voltage systems.
For engineers reviewing the 74V1G79CTR datasheet, 74V1G79CTR pinout, 74V1G79CTR application, or 74V1G79CTR equivalent, key selection criteria include edge-triggered timing behavior, input overvoltage tolerance (0–7V), latch-up immunity, ESD-protected I/O, and sub-10ns propagation delay across temperature ranges.
Technical Context
This device implements a synchronous D-type storage element triggered exclusively on the rising edge of CK, with no internal reset/set control. Its C2MOS process enables rail-to-rail input voltage acceptance (–0.5V to VCC+0.5V) independent of supply, and power-down protection ensures safe operation during VCC=0 conditions.
Propagation delays are balanced (tPLH ≅ tPHL), and setup/hold times are specified down to 1ns at 5V - enabling reliable operation in high-speed digital interfaces. The flip-flop maintains functional integrity across –55°C to +125°C, with guaranteed DC output levels at ±8mA load and VIH/VIL thresholds defined as 0.7VCC/0.3VCC.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2V to 5.5V - supports dual-supply 3.3V and legacy 5V logic domains |
| fMAX | 180MHz (typ.) at VCC = 5V - enables high-speed data capture in serial interface clocking |
| tPLH / tPHL | 3.9ns / 3.9ns (typ., CL=15pF, VCC=5V) - ensures matched rise/fall path timing for jitter-sensitive sampling |
| IOH / IOL | –8mA / +8mA (min., VCC=4.5V) - drives standard CMOS loads without external buffering |
| ICC (Quiescent) | 1µA (max., TA=25°C) - minimizes standby power in battery-operated portable devices |
| VI Input Range | –0.5V to +7.0V - allows safe interfacing between 5V and 3V systems without level shifters |
| ESD Protection | HBM ≥2kV - built-in protection eliminates need for external transient suppressors |
Pinout & Package
SOT323-5L: ultra-small surface-mount package (1.80 × 2.40 mm, 0.30 mm height), 5-terminal leadframe with gull-wing leads, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - D | Data Input | Asynchronous data source sampled only on CK rising edge; accepts –0.5V to +7V regardless of VCC |
| 2 - CK | Clock Input | Positive-edge-sensitive trigger; 3ns input rise/fall time supported; immune to slow edges via Schmitt-trigger-like noise margin |
| 3 - GND | Ground Reference | 0V return path for all internal logic and I/O; tied to substrate for ESD discharge routing |
| 4 - Q | Output | True output of stored D value; rail-to-rail swing with ±8mA drive capability into capacitive loads ≤50pF |
| 5 - VCC | Supply Voltage | Primary power rail; powers internal logic and output stage; decoupling required within 3mm per layout guidelines |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Single Positive-Edge D Flip-Flop | Exact 1-bit synchronous storage with no asynchronous controls - simplifies timing analysis in pipeline stages |
| Input Overvoltage Tolerance | 0–7V input range independent of VCC - enables direct connection to higher-voltage buses without external clamping |
| Balanced Propagation Delays | tPLH ≅ tPHL (≤0.5ns mismatch at 5V) - reduces duty-cycle distortion in clock forwarding applications |
| Power-Down Input Protection | Inputs remain high-impedance and non-latching when VCC = 0 - prevents back-powering and signal contention |
| Enhanced Latch-Up Immunity | Specified to survive >200mA transient injection - meets stringent industrial system reliability requirements |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1G79DBVR | Lower VCC range (1.65–5.5V); 10ns max tPD at 3.3V; no 0–7V input tolerance | Optimized for low-voltage portable logic; lacks overvoltage robustness for mixed-rail interconnect | Select when strict 1.65V operation or TI ecosystem compatibility is required |
| NC7SZ79P5X | Higher ICC (10µA typ.); 125°C max temp; same SOT323-5L footprint but different pinout (Q on Pin 5, VCC on Pin 1) | Pinout incompatible; requires PCB redesign; better suited for space-constrained consumer wearables | Choose only if board revision permits pin reassignment and 125°C ambient is mandatory |
Compared with SN74LVC1G79DBVR and NC7SZ79P5X, the 74V1G79CTR uniquely combines 0–7V input tolerance, 1µA quiescent current, and guaranteed operation down to –55°C - making it optimal for ruggedized, multi-voltage, low-power embedded control nodes.

FAQ
Is the 74V1G79CTR pin-compatible with standard 74-series SOT323-5L D flip-flops?
No - while it shares the SOT323-5L package, its pinout (D=1, CK=2, GND=3, Q=4, VCC=5) differs from common variants like NC7SZ79 (Q=5, VCC=1). Layout reuse requires verification against the exact mechanical drawing and terminal mapping in ST's DS7049676C.
Can the 74V1G79CTR safely interface a 5V microcontroller GPIO to a 3.3V FPGA clock input?
Yes - its inputs tolerate 0–7V regardless of VCC, and its output swings rail-to-rail. With VCC = 3.3V, Q delivers valid 3.3V logic levels, and D/CK accept 5V signals directly without clamping or level shifting.
What is the minimum recommended bypass capacitance for stable operation at 180MHz?
A 100nF X7R ceramic capacitor placed within 3mm of the VCC and GND pins is specified in ST's layout guidelines. For 180MHz operation, add a parallel 1nF capacitor to suppress high-frequency supply noise above 100MHz.
Does the 74V1G79CTR include an asynchronous reset or preset function?
No - it is a basic single D-type flip-flop with only D, CK, Q, VCC, and GND terminals. No asynchronous control inputs (e.g., CLR, PRE) are provided; state initialization must be handled externally via clocked D input sequencing.
