Product details
Overview
84071012A from Texas Instruments is an octal D-type transparent latch with 3-state outputs, designed for bus interface and data buffering in high-reliability military systems. It operates across −55°C to +125°C, features edge-triggered clocking on CLK↑, supports 2 V to 6 V supply, delivers ±6 mA output drive at 5 V, and exhibits typical propagation delay of 14 ns.
For engineers reviewing the 84071012A datasheet, 84071012A pinout, 84071012A application, or 84071012A equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, LCCC-20 package mapping, timing and drive specifications per TI SCLS141E, real-world bus interface use cases, and two validated alternative part numbers with documented technical differences.
Technical Context
The 84071012A implements eight independent edge-triggered D-type flip-flops synchronized to the rising edge of CLK. Each flip-flop captures the logic level present at its D input and transfers it to the corresponding Q output only on CLK↑, with no internal latching between transitions.
Output-enable (OE) controls all eight outputs simultaneously, placing them in high-impedance state when asserted high-without affecting internal flip-flop operation or data retention. OE must be pulled up to VCC during power-up to ensure defined bus state.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2 V to 6 V - supports mixed-voltage system interfacing and legacy 5 V logic compatibility |
| Operating Temperature | −55°C to +125°C - qualified for extended military and aerospace environmental stress profiles |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 14 ns typical at VCC = 5 V - enables reliable operation in 20+ MHz synchronous bus applications |
| Output Drive Current | ±6 mA at VCC = 5 V - sufficient to directly drive 15 LSTTL loads without external buffers |
| Quiescent ICC | 80 µA max - ensures ultra-low static power in standby or low-duty-cycle control logic |
| Input Leakage Current | 1 µA max - minimizes loading on upstream drivers and preserves signal integrity in high-impedance nodes |
| 3-State Enable/Disable Time | ten = 14 ns, tdis = 16 ns at VCC = 6 V - guarantees fast bus turnaround for time-critical bidirectional data transfer |
Pinout & Package
LCCC-20 (FK) ceramic package with side-brazed leads, hermetically sealed, lead finish POST-PLATE, MSL N/A, suitable for high-reliability board assembly and long-term storage.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OE | Active-high output enable - asserts high to place all Q outputs in high-Z; does not affect internal flip-flop state |
| 2–9, 11–18 | D1–D8 / Q1–Q8 | Data inputs and true outputs - Dn feeds Qn on CLK↑; pins arranged for parallel bus layout (D1/Q1 adjacent, etc.) |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference - must be connected to system ground plane for noise immunity and stable logic thresholds |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply - decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required within 10 mm of pin for transient current handling |
| 19 | CLK | Clock input - rising-edge sensitive; requires monotonic transition with ≤400 ns rise/fall time at VCC = 6 V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide supply voltage range | 2 V to 6 V operation enables interoperability with 3.3 V microcontrollers and legacy 5 V peripherals |
| High-current 3-state outputs | ±6 mA drive at 5 V eliminates need for external bus transceivers in moderate-load applications |
| Low power consumption | 80 µA max ICC allows integration into power-constrained subsystems without thermal derating |
| Fast propagation delay | 14 ns typical tpd supports 20+ MHz clock rates in register-file and I/O port implementations |
| Robust input thresholds | VIH = 3.15 V and VIL = 1.35 V at VCC = 4.5 V provide >1 V noise margin against EMI in noisy environments |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type latch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SNJ54HC374J | Same logic function and LCCC-20 pinout; CDIP-20 package with through-hole mounting and different thermal resistance (θJA = 69°C/W vs. FK's 70°C/W). | Preferred for prototyping or low-volume PCBs requiring manual soldering; less suitable for high-vibration environments due to lead flex fatigue. | Select SNJ54HC374J only if board assembly process mandates through-hole components or thermal testing confirms adequate derating in CDIP form factor. |
| SNJ54HC374W | Identical electrical specs and temperature range; CFP-20 ceramic flatpack with gull-wing leads and higher thermal conductivity (θJA = 55°C/W). | Better suited for conduction-cooled chassis designs where heat sinking to metal enclosure is required; footprint incompatible with LCCC land pattern. | Choose SNJ54HC374W when thermal management dominates over package height constraints and board space permits CFP layout. |
Compared with 84071012A, SNJ54HC374J offers easier hand-soldering but reduced mechanical robustness, while SNJ54HC374W improves thermal performance at the cost of non-interchangeable packaging-both require PCB redesign and do not support drop-in replacement.

FAQ
What is the exact package type and lead finish of 84071012A?
The 84071012A uses a 20-pin LCCC (Leadless Chip Carrier) package with FK drawing, ceramic body, side-brazed leads, and POST-PLATE lead finish. This configuration meets MIL-STD-883 requirements for hermeticity and mechanical ruggedness in harsh environments, and is distinct from plastic SOIC or SSOP variants of the SN74HC374 series.
Does 84071012A support 3.3 V operation, and what are the input voltage thresholds at that supply?
Yes, 84071012A supports 3.3 V operation within its 2 V to 6 V range. At VCC = 3.3 V, VIH is 2.31 V min and VIL is 0.99 V max per interpolation from TI SCLS141E recommended operating conditions-providing 1.0 V noise margin for clean interfacing with 3.3 V microcontrollers.
How does the output-enable (OE) pin behave during power-up, and what is the recommended biasing strategy?
During power-up, OE must be held high (≥VCC) to guarantee all outputs enter high-impedance state before internal logic stabilizes. TI recommends tying OE to VCC via a pullup resistor; minimum value depends on driver sink capability but typically 4.7 kΩ suffices for most CMOS drivers, preventing bus contention at system startup.
Is 84071012A pin-compatible with commercial SN74HC374 variants like SN74HC374N or SN74HC374DBR?
No, 84071012A is not pin-compatible with commercial SN74HC374 variants. It uses LCCC-20 (FK) packaging with a square ceramic body and perimeter leads, whereas SN74HC374N is PDIP-20 and SN74HC374DBR is SSOP-20-each with different pin spacing, footprint, and thermal characteristics requiring unique PCB layouts.
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by 84071012A at 5 V supply and 25°C ambient?
At VCC = 5 V and TA = 25°C, the 84071012A supports a maximum clock frequency of 30 MHz per TI SCLS141E timing characteristics. This is derived from minimum pulse width (tw = 16 ns) and setup/hold time constraints, enabling reliable use in high-speed register file and I/O port applications within military computing systems.
