Product details
Overview
CD74HCT574M96G4 from Texas Instruments is an octal D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs, positive-edge clock triggering, and LSTTL-compatible inputs. It operates at 4.5–5.5 V, delivers 15 ns typical propagation delay (VCC = 5 V, CL = 15 pF), supports –55°C to +125°C operation, and drives up to 15 LSTTL loads - used in bus-hold data latching and microcontroller peripheral interfacing.
For engineers reviewing the CD74HCT574M96G4 datasheet, CD74HCT574M96G4 pinout, CD74HCT574M96G4 application, or CD74HCT574M96G4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its HCT-level input compatibility (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2.0 V), 20-pin SOIC package, 3-state output enable independence from register operation, and verified performance across extended temperature ranges.
Technical Context
The CD74HCT574M96G4 implements eight edge-triggered D flip-flops sharing a common clock (CP) and output enable (OE) control. Data is latched on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CP; OE asserts high-impedance state independently of clock activity. Its HCT logic family ensures direct interface with legacy TTL systems while maintaining CMOS power efficiency.
Input buffering isolates internal circuitry from signal integrity issues, and balanced propagation/transition times minimize skew in synchronous bus applications. The device's 3-state outputs support bidirectional bus architectures without external isolation components, enabling clean signal routing in dense PCB layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | HCT - TTL-compatible inputs (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2.0 V) with CMOS power efficiency |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V - matches standard 5-V system rails and avoids level-shifting in mixed-voltage designs |
| Propagation Delay | 15 ns typical (VCC = 5 V, CL = 15 pF) - enables reliable operation up to 60 MHz clock frequency in buffered bus paths |
| Output Drive | 15 LSTTL loads - sufficient for driving multiple downstream logic devices or short PCB traces without fanout buffers |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to +125°C - qualified for industrial, automotive under-hood, and aerospace environments |
| Input Leakage | ±1 μA max (VCC = 5.5 V) - negligible current draw simplifies biasing and reduces static power in always-on subsystems |
| Quiescent Current | 160 μA max (–55°C to +125°C) - ultra-low standby power supports energy-sensitive embedded control nodes |
Pinout & Package
CD74HCT574M96G4 is housed in a 20-pin SOIC (DW) package measuring 12.80 mm × 7.50 mm, with standard 1.27 mm pitch and gull-wing leads compatible with automated SMT assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (CP) | Clock input | Positive-edge triggered - latches all eight D inputs simultaneously on rising edge; requires clean, monotonic transitions |
| 2–9 (D0–D7) | Data inputs | Asynchronous parallel inputs - drive internal D-flip-flop stages; buffered to reject noise and reduce loading |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for logic and output currents; must be low-impedance and decoupled near VCC |
| 11–18 (Q0–Q7) | 3-state outputs | Driven only when OE = LOW; high-impedance when OE = HIGH - enables shared-bus arbitration |
| 19 (OE) | Output enable | Active-LOW control - independent of clock; allows output gating without affecting stored register state |
| 20 (VCC) | Power supply | 4.5–5.5 V nominal - requires local 0.1-μF ceramic bypass capacitor to suppress switching noise |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Common 3-state output enable | Single OE pin controls all eight outputs - simplifies bus arbitration logic and reduces control signal routing |
| Direct LSTTL input compatibility | VIL ≤ 0.8 V / VIH ≥ 2.0 V - eliminates need for level shifters when interfacing with legacy 5-V TTL peripherals |
| Bus line driving capability | 15 LSTTL load rating - supports direct connection to multiple downstream gates or microcontroller I/O ports |
| Wide temperature range | –55°C to +125°C operation - validated for use in harsh environments including industrial motor controls and automotive ECUs |
| Low dynamic power dissipation | CPD = 47 pF (VCC = 5 V) - reduces switching power in high-frequency data capture applications |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Expansion | Automotive Body Control Module |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Latching sensor status (door open/closed, seatbelt fastened) before transmission to main ECU over CAN or LIN. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Octal D-flip-flop synchronizes asynchronous mechanical switch inputs to the system clock domain and presents stable data via 3-state outputs to shared diagnostic bus.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as bi-directional data latch between mismatched voltage domains (e.g., 3.3-V MCU and 5-V display controller), leveraging HCT input thresholds and 3-state isolation. Use Value: Avoids discrete level translators and reduces board area - accelerates retrofit integration while maintaining signal integrity on long ribbon cables. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HCT574N | Same HCT logic, identical pinout, PDIP-20 package (25.4 mm × 6.35 mm); higher RθJA (84.6°C/W) vs. SOIC (109.1°C/W) | Preferred for prototyping or through-hole assembly; less suitable for thermally constrained high-density boards | Select when manual soldering, breadboarding, or legacy board rework is required |
| CD74HCT574PWR | Same electrical specs, TSSOP-20 package (6.5 mm × 4.4 mm); smaller footprint and lower profile than SOIC | Better suited for space-constrained portable or automotive modules where height clearance is limited | Choose for miniaturized designs requiring 40% smaller PCB area and improved thermal performance (RθJA = 131.8°C/W) |
Compared with SN74HCT574N and CD74HCT574PWR, CD74HCT574M96G4 offers optimal balance of thermal robustness (SOIC RθJA = 109.1°C/W), surface-mount reliability, and broad industry availability - making it the default choice for production-grade industrial controllers and automotive body electronics.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the CD74HCT574M96G4?
The CD74HCT574M96G4 supports a maximum clock frequency of 60 MHz under recommended operating conditions (VCC = 5 V, CL = 15 pF, TA = 25°C). At full temperature range (–55°C to +125°C), the guaranteed fMAX is 20 MHz. This specification is derived from measured tW (clock pulse width) and tSU/tH (setup/hold) timing margins in TI's official SCHS183E datasheet.
Does the CD74HCT574M96G4 require external pull-up resistors on its outputs?
No, the CD74HCT574M96G4 does not require external pull-up resistors on its Q0–Q7 outputs because they are actively driven push-pull outputs in the LOW or HIGH state, and enter true high-impedance (Hi-Z) when OE is HIGH. Pull-ups would interfere with defined logic levels and increase static power - TI's datasheet specifies no such requirement and confirms CMOS-compatible output structure.
How does the CD74HCT574M96G4 differ from the CD74HC574M96 in practical design?
The CD74HCT574M96G4 uses HCT logic with TTL-compatible inputs (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2.0 V), while CD74HC574M96 uses HC logic (VIL ≤ 1.35 V, VIH ≥ 3.15 V at VCC = 4.5 V). This makes CD74HCT574M96G4 directly interoperable with legacy 5-V TTL outputs without level shifting, whereas CD74HC574M96 requires stricter input voltage compliance - a critical distinction in mixed-technology systems.
Can the CD74HCT574M96G4 be used with a 3.3-V microcontroller interface?
The CD74HCT574M96G4 is not recommended for direct 3.3-V microcontroller interface because its VIH minimum is 2.0 V (TTL-compatible), but its VCC must be 4.5–5.5 V - meaning it cannot operate at 3.3 V. Driving its inputs from a 3.3-V MCU may violate VIH margin; level translation or use of 3.3-V–tolerant variants (e.g., SN74LVC574A) is required for safe interoperability.
What is the purpose of the separate OE (output enable) pin on the CD74HCT574M96G4?
The OE pin on the CD74HCT574M96G4 provides independent control of the 3-state outputs - allowing Q0–Q7 to enter high-impedance mode regardless of clock or stored data state. This enables safe sharing of data buses among multiple devices, prevents bus contention during read/write cycles, and supports hot-swap or dynamic reconfiguration without disrupting internal register contents.
