Product details
Overview
CD74HC574M from Texas Instruments is an octal D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs, positive-edge clock triggering, and bus-driving capability. It operates from 2 V to 6 V, delivers 15 ns typical propagation delay at 5 V/15 pF, supports –55℃ to 125℃ temperature range, and drives up to 15 LSTTL loads - used in digital bus interface and data latching applications in industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the CD74HC574M datasheet, CD74HC574M pinout, CD74HC574M application, or CD74HC574M equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, SOIC-20 package mapping, timing parameters under defined load conditions, truth table behavior, and validated alternative options for bus-hold and level-shifting logic designs.
Technical Context
The CD74HC574M implements eight independent edge-triggered D flip-flops synchronized on the LOW-to-HIGH clock transition. Its output enable (OE) pin controls all eight 3-state outputs independently of register operation, enabling high-impedance states when OE = HIGH.
It belongs to the HC logic family with CMOS input compatibility (II ≤ 1 μA), 30% noise immunity at VCC = 5 V, and rail-to-rail output swing. Propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL), setup time (tSU = 10 ns min at 6 V), and hold time (tH = 5 ns) are specified across full temperature and voltage ranges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | High-speed CMOS (HC), not TTL-compatible - requires CMOS-level inputs, supports 2–6 V supply |
| Function | Octal D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs - latches 8-bit parallel data on rising clock edge |
| Propagation Delay | 15 ns typical (VCC = 5 V, CL = 15 pF, TA = 25℃) - determines maximum synchronous data throughput |
| Output Drive | 15 LSTTL loads - enables direct connection to legacy TTL buses without buffer amplification |
| Operating Temperature | –55℃ to 125℃ - qualified for extended industrial and harsh-environment embedded use |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2 V to 6 V - supports mixed-voltage system interfacing and low-power operation at 2 V |
| Input Leakage Current | ±1 μA max (VCC = 6 V) - ensures minimal loading on upstream drivers and stable DC logic levels |
Pinout & Package
CD74HC574M is housed in a 20-pin SOIC (DW) package with 12.80 mm × 7.50 mm body size, gull-wing leads, and RoHS-compliant NiPdAu plating. Pin spacing is 1.27 mm, and it is rated MSL Level-1 (unlimited floor life).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (CP) | Clock input | Rising-edge trigger for all eight D flip-flops - data latched on LOW-to-HIGH transition |
| 2–9 (D0–D7) | Data inputs | Asynchronous parallel data inputs - sampled only on active clock edge |
| 11–18 (Q0–Q7) | 3-state outputs | Registered outputs enabled/disabled by OE - high-impedance when OE = HIGH |
| 19 (OE) | Output enable | Active-low control (LOW = outputs enabled, HIGH = outputs high-Z) - independent of clock |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for all internal logic and I/O - must be low-impedance and decoupled |
| 20 (VCC) | Power supply | Primary supply rail (2–6 V) - requires local 0.1-μF bypass capacitor per device |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Positive-edge triggered register | Ensures deterministic sampling of asynchronous data streams with precise timing alignment |
| Common 3-state output enable | Allows single-control bus arbitration across 8-bit data paths without external gating logic |
| 15 LSTTL load drive capability | Eliminates need for external bus buffers in mixed-logic systems interfacing HC with legacy TTL |
| Wide 2–6 V supply range | Enables interoperability between 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V peripheral subsystems |
| –55℃ to 125℃ operating range | Supports deployment in automotive engine compartments, industrial PLC backplanes, and outdoor equipment |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HC574N | Same HC logic family, identical function and timing, but in PDIP-20 package (25.4 mm × 6.35 mm) | Used where through-hole assembly or prototyping on breadboard/perfboard is required | Select SN74HC574N for manual soldering, educational labs, or legacy board rework where SOIC footprint is unavailable |
| CD74HCT574M | HCT variant - TTL-compatible inputs (VIH = 2 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max), same SOIC-20 package | Required when interfacing directly with 5 V TTL outputs without level shifters | Choose CD74HCT574M only if upstream logic is standard TTL or LS-TTL; otherwise CD74HC574M offers lower power and wider VCC range |
Compared with SN74HC574N and CD74HCT574M, CD74HC574M provides optimal balance of low static current (8 μA typ), wide supply flexibility (2–6 V), and surface-mount compatibility - making it preferred for modern compact industrial controllers where power efficiency and PCB space are constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by CD74HC574M?
The CD74HC574M supports a maximum clock frequency of 23 MHz at VCC = 6 V and –55℃ to 125℃, 29 MHz at 25℃, and 35 MHz at VCC = 6 V/25℃ with CL = 15 pF. These values derive directly from datasheet Section 5.5 and reflect guaranteed timing margins under worst-case conditions - not theoretical limits.
Does CD74HC574M have Schmitt-trigger inputs?
No, CD74HC574M does not include Schmitt-trigger inputs. Its inputs are standard CMOS with VIH = 4.2 V (min at VCC = 6 V) and VIL = 1.8 V (max at VCC = 6 V), providing 30% noise margin but no hysteresis. Signal conditioning is required for noisy or slow-rising waveforms before applying them to CD74HC574M inputs.
Can CD74HC574M drive LEDs directly?
No, CD74HC574M is not intended for direct LED driving. Its outputs source/sink only ±25 mA per pin (absolute max ±35 mA), and sustained DC current degrades reliability. For LED indication, use CD74HC574M to control a discrete transistor or dedicated LED driver - never connect LEDs directly to Q0–Q7 pins.
Is CD74HC574M pin-compatible with CD74HC374M?
No, CD74HC574M and CD74HC374M are functionally identical but differ in pinout arrangement - specifically, the order of D and Q pins is swapped. They share the same SOIC-20 package and electrical specs, but PCB layout and wiring must be redesigned to accommodate the different pin mapping.
What is the purpose of the OE pin on CD74HC574M?
The OE (output enable) pin on CD74HC574M controls all eight 3-state outputs simultaneously. When OE is HIGH, outputs enter high-impedance state regardless of clock or data activity - enabling safe sharing of a common bus among multiple devices. OE is asynchronous and independent of CP or D inputs.
