Product details
Overview
CD74HC109M from Texas Instruments is a dual positive-edge-triggered J-K flip-flop with asynchronous active-low set and reset inputs, operating from 2V to 6V supply, rated for -55°C to +125°C, featuring Schmitt-trigger clock inputs and typical fMAX of 54 MHz at VCC = 5V, CL = 15pF - used in synchronous logic control, state machines, and clock-domain synchronization in industrial timing circuits.
For engineers reviewing the CD74HC109M datasheet, CD74HC109M pinout, CD74HC109M application, or CD74HC109M equivalent, key selection considerations include its SOIC-16 package, HC logic family voltage tolerance, propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 53 ns @ VCC = 4.5V, CL = 50pF), wide temperature range, and dual independent J-K functionality with asynchronous control.
Technical Context
The CD74HC109M implements two independent edge-triggered J-K flip-flops sharing no internal coupling; each has dedicated J, K, CP, S̅, and R̅ terminals. State transitions occur on the low-to-high clock edge, while set and reset override clock action asynchronously and are active-low.
Its HC logic family ensures CMOS-level input thresholds (VIH ≥ 3.15V, VIL ≤ 1.35V @ VCC = 4.5V), high noise immunity (NIL/NIH = 30% of VCC), and fanout of 10 LSTTL loads over full temperature range - enabling robust interfacing in mixed-logic systems without level-shifting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | High-speed CMOS (HC), compatible with 2V–6V supply - supports battery-powered and multi-rail systems without voltage translation. |
| Operating Temperature | -55°C to +125°C - qualified for extended industrial, aerospace, and automotive under-hood applications. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 54 MHz @ VCC = 5V, CL = 15pF - enables use in medium-speed digital control loops and data sampling. |
| Propagation Delay | ≤ 53 ns (CP → Q, CL = 50pF, VCC = 4.5V) - ensures predictable timing margins in synchronous state machines. |
| Input Hysteresis | Schmitt-trigger clock inputs - suppresses noise-induced false triggering on slow or noisy clock edges. |
| Output Drive | ±25 mA per output, 10 LSTTL load fanout - directly drives standard TTL loads or small capacitive buses. |
| Quiescent Current | ≤ 80 µA @ -55°C to +125°C - supports low-power standby modes in energy-sensitive embedded controllers. |
Pinout & Package
CD74HC109M is supplied in a 16-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package, 3.9 mm body width, with standard JEDEC MO-001AC footprint and gull-wing leads. Thermal resistance θJA = 73°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 | Functional I/O (J1, K1, CP1, S̅1, R̅1, Q1, Q̅1, J2, K2, CP2, S̅2, R̅2) | Independent dual-channel J-K flip-flop interface - pins assigned per truth table; no shared control lines between sections. |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference for all logic and power domains - must be low-impedance connection to minimize switching noise. |
| 8 | Q̅1 | Inverted output of Flip-Flop 1 - complements Q1; used for toggle feedback or complementary signal routing. |
| 9 | Q̅2 | Inverted output of Flip-Flop 2 - provides differential pair capability without external inverters. |
| 16 | VCC | Positive supply rail (2V–6V) - decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF ceramic) required within 5 mm of this pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Asynchronous Set/Reset | Active-low S̅ and R̅ override clock edge - enables immediate state initialization or forced reset independent of system clock timing. |
| Schmitt-trigger clock inputs | Eliminates need for external hysteresis on noisy or slow-rising clocks - improves reliability in motor control or sensor interface applications. |
| Balanced propagation delays | tPLH ≈ tPHL across all outputs - minimizes duty cycle distortion in clock division or pulse generation circuits. |
| Wide supply voltage range | 2V–6V operation - allows direct interface with 3.3V microcontrollers, 5V legacy peripherals, and 2.5V low-power subsystems. |
| High noise immunity | NIL/NIH = 30% of VCC - tolerates >1.5V noise margin on inputs at 5V supply, reducing susceptibility to EMI in industrial environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual J-K flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HC109DR | Same HC logic family, identical pinout, same SOIC-16 package, but manufactured by TI with updated process and RoHS-compliant finish; fMAX = 60 MHz @ 5V/15pF. | Higher speed and improved ESD robustness; suitable for new designs targeting higher clock rates or stricter environmental compliance. | Select SN74HC109DR when upgrading for performance or regulatory alignment; pin-compatible drop-in replacement with no layout change. |
| MC74HC109ADTR2G | ON Semiconductor variant; identical function and pinout, SOIC-16, -55°C to +125°C rating, but specified fMAX = 46 MHz @ 4.5V/50pF and slightly higher ICC max (100 µA). | Valid alternative where second-source assurance is required; minor timing margin reduction acceptable in non-critical control paths. | Choose MC74HC109ADTR2G for dual-sourcing strategy; verify setup/hold timing against target clock edge rate in final design. |
Compared with CD74HC109M, SN74HC109DR offers higher maximum frequency and modern packaging, while MC74HC109ADTR2G provides supply-chain diversification with minor trade-offs in speed and quiescent current - both retain identical functional behavior and SOIC-16 mechanical fit.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for CD74HC109M?
The CD74HC109M supports a DC supply voltage range of 2V to 6V. Absolute maximum rating is 7V, but sustained operation above 6V may cause permanent damage. For reliable long-term use, VCC must remain within 2V–6V, with recommended operation at 4.5V–5.5V for optimal noise margin and speed.
Does CD74HC109M support true dual independent J-K flip-flops?
Yes, CD74HC109M integrates two fully independent J-K flip-flops (FF1 and FF2), each with dedicated J, K, CP, S̅, R̅, Q, and Q̅ terminals. There is no internal coupling or shared control - enabling simultaneous, asynchronous operation of both sections without crosstalk or timing dependency.
What is the meaning of the "M96" suffix in CD74HC109M96.A?
The "M96" suffix in CD74HC109M96.A indicates a 16-pin SOIC package supplied in tape-and-reel format with 2500 units per reel. The ".A" denotes an updated manufacturing lot or revision traceability code; it does not alter electrical or mechanical specifications of the CD74HC109M device itself.
Can CD74HC109M replace CD74HCT109M in a 5V system?
CD74HC109M can replace CD74HCT109M in 5V systems only if input logic levels from upstream devices meet HC thresholds (VIH ≥ 3.15V, VIL ≤ 1.35V). HCT accepts standard TTL inputs (VIH ≥ 2.0V), while HC requires higher VIH - verify driver compatibility before substitution to avoid marginal logic recognition.
Is CD74HC109M suitable for automotive under-hood applications?
CD74HC109M is rated for -55°C to +125°C operation and qualified for industrial use, but it is not AEC-Q100 qualified. For automotive under-hood applications requiring automotive-grade qualification, consider AEC-Q100-compliant alternatives such as SN74HC109QPWRQ1 - the CD74HC109M itself lacks automotive-specific reliability testing and documentation.
