Product details
Overview
CY74FCT377CTSOC from Texas Instruments is an 8-bit edge-triggered D-type register IC with clock enable, designed for synchronous data latching in address/data bus interfaces. It features 64-mA sink / 32-mA source drive strength, 5.2-ns propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL), and Ioff support for partial-power-down operation. Used in industrial control backplanes requiring TTL-compatible timing and noise-immune signal registration.
For engineers reviewing the CY74FCT377CTSOC datasheet, CY74FCT377CTSOC pinout, CY74FCT377CTSOC application, or CY74FCT377CTSOC equivalent, key selection criteria include its SOIC-20 package, 4.75–5.25-V supply range, 2-ns setup/hold timing margins, and compatibility with FCT-family logic families in legacy 5-V systems.
Technical Context
The CY74FCT377CTSOC implements eight independent D-type flip-flops sharing a common buffered clock (CP) and active-low clock enable (CE). All outputs update synchronously on the low-to-high CP transition when CE is asserted low, with data sampled one setup time before the clock edge.
It integrates edge-rate control circuitry to reduce switching noise, matched rise/fall times for minimized skew, and Ioff protection that disables outputs during power-down to prevent backflow current. Fully compatible with TTL input thresholds (VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V) and drives standard TTL loads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Propagation Delay | 5.2 ns max (tPLH/tPHL at VCC = 5 V, CL = 50 pF) - ensures tight timing margin in high-speed 5-V bus synchronization |
| Output Drive | 64 mA sink / 32 mA source - supports direct driving of multiple TTL inputs without buffers |
| Supply Voltage | 4.75–5.25 V - tightly regulated 5-V operation compliant with commercial-grade TTL systems |
| Setup/Hold Time | tsu = 2 ns, th = 1.5 ns - enables reliable capture of fast-changing address/data signals in synchronous designs |
| Ioff Support | ±1 µA at VCC = 0 V - prevents damaging current flow during hot-insertion or partial system power-down |
| ESD Protection | 2000-V HBM, 200-V MM, 1000-V CDM - meets industrial-level robustness requirements for board-level handling |
| Input Compatibility | TTL-level VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V - interoperable with legacy 74LS/74ALS logic without level-shifting |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOIC-20 (DW), 7.5 mm × 12.8 mm body, 1.27 mm pitch, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish, MSL Level-1 (unlimited reflow).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11 | D0–D7 Data Inputs | Asynchronous parallel data inputs sampled on CP↑; TTL-compatible voltage thresholds |
| 3, 6, 9, 12, 13, 15, 16, 18 | O0–O7 Outputs | Edge-triggered registered outputs; 3-state disabled when CE = high |
| 14 | GND | Ground reference for all logic and power domains |
| 20 | VCC | 5-V supply rail; decoupling required within 1 cm of pin |
| 19 | CP | Buffered clock input; low-to-high transition triggers simultaneous register update |
| 17 | CE | Active-low clock enable; must be stable ≥2 ns before CP↑ for predictable operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Edge-Rate Controlled Outputs | Slower edge rates reduce EMI and crosstalk in dense PCB layouts without sacrificing speed |
| Matched Rise/Fall Times | Minimizes output skew across all 8 channels (<0.5 ns variation), critical for parallel bus integrity |
| Partial-Power-Down Ioff | Enables safe insertion into live backplanes by disabling outputs when VCC = 0 V |
| TTL-Compatible Input Thresholds | VIH = 2 V / VIL = 0.8 V allows direct interfacing with 74LS, 74ALS, and other legacy logic families |
| Reduced VOH (Typ. 3.3 V) | Lower high-level output voltage improves noise margin against VCC noise in mixed-signal environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 8-bit register applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74FCT377NSR | Same SOIC-20 package, identical pinout, but rated for 7.2-ns max propagation delay and 32-mA sink/source drive | Suitable for lower-speed 5-V systems where reduced drive strength suffices | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs need for 64-mA drive or 5.2-ns timing |
| 74ACT377SCX | ACT-family CMOS variant; higher VOH (~4.4 V), wider VCC range (4.5–5.5 V), no Ioff, 10.5-ns typical delay | Better noise immunity in high-noise environments but lacks partial-power-down capability | Choose for new designs needing broader supply tolerance and higher noise margins, not legacy FCT drop-in replacement |
Compared with SN74FCT377NSR and 74ACT377SCX, the CY74FCT377CTSOC delivers superior drive strength and tighter timing for demanding 5-V bus interfaces, while its Ioff feature uniquely supports hot-plug architectures where other alternatives require external isolation.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the CY74FCT377CTSOC?
The CY74FCT377CTSOC is specified for commercial operation from –40°C to +85°C. This range aligns with standard SOIC-packaged logic devices used in industrial control and computing equipment where ambient thermal management is controlled. The device's thermal impedance (θJA = 58°C/W) ensures stable performance under continuous 5-V operation within this envelope.
Does the CY74FCT377CTSOC support 3.3-V logic levels?
No, the CY74FCT377CTSOC is a 5-V-only device with TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V) and requires VCC = 4.75–5.25 V. Its outputs swing to ~3.3 V (typical VOH) but are not 3.3-V tolerant - applying 3.3-V signals to inputs may violate VIH/VIL specifications and cause unreliable operation. For mixed-voltage systems, level translation is required.
Can the CY74FCT377CTSOC be used as a direct replacement for SN74FCT377N?
Yes, the CY74FCT377CTSOC is functionally and pin-compatible with SN74FCT377N in SOIC-20 packages. Both share identical pinout, timing parameters (5.2-ns max delay), drive strength (64-mA sink), and Ioff support. The CY74FCT377CTSOC offers identical electrical behavior and is manufactured to TI's updated process with enhanced ESD ratings (2000-V HBM), making it a validated drop-in upgrade.
What is the purpose of the CE (clock enable) pin on the CY74FCT377CTSOC?
The CE pin on the CY74FCT377CTSOC is an active-low control that gates the clock input: only when CE = low does the rising edge of CP load data from D0–D7 into O0–O7. When CE = high, outputs retain their last state regardless of CP activity. This enables selective registration in multi-cycle bus protocols and reduces unnecessary toggling to minimize dynamic power and noise.
Is the CY74FCT377CTSOC RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the CY74FCT377CTSOC is RoHS compliant with NiPdAu lead finish and meets JEDEC Level-1 moisture sensitivity (unlimited floor life). Its SOIC-20 (DW) package uses lead-free terminations and is qualified for standard 260°C reflow profiles. Full compliance documentation, including material declarations and test reports, is available through TI's official product page and Aetrix Electronics' quality portal.
