Product details
Overview
CY74FCT574TQCT from Texas Instruments is a high-speed, low-power 8-bit edge-triggered D-type flip-flop register with 3-state outputs, designed for bus-oriented digital systems. It features a common buffered clock (CP), output-enable (OE) control, 64-mA sink / 32-mA source drive strength, and Ioff partial-power-down support. Used in data latching and bus isolation within industrial control backplanes and legacy TTL-compatible logic interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the CY74FCT574TQCT datasheet, CY74FCT574TQCT pinout, CY74FCT574TQCT application, or CY74FCT574TQCT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 10 ns maximum propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL), flow-through pinout simplifying PCB routing, ±1 µA input leakage at VCC = 5.25 V, and compatibility with TTL-level inputs and outputs across –40°C to +85°C operation.
Technical Context
The CY74FCT574TQCT implements eight independent D-type flip-flops synchronized on the low-to-high transition of CP, with all outputs gated by a shared OE signal. Its Ioff circuitry disables outputs during power-down to prevent backflow current, and edge-rate control reduces switching noise.
It operates from 4.75 V to 5.25 V, supports TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max), and delivers rail-to-rail 3-state outputs with matched rise/fall times. The device is not a clock generator or oscillator - it is a synchronous storage element with combinatorial enable control.
Key Specifications

| Matched rise/fall times | Ensures symmetrical timing margins and predictable setup/hold windows across temperature and voltage |
| TTL-compatible I/O | Accepts standard TTL VIH/VIL thresholds and drives TTL loads directly - no interface logic required |
| Partial-power-down Ioff | Outputs disabled at VCC = 0 V - enables safe insertion/removal in live backplane environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 8-bit registered bus interface applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY74FCT374TQCT | Different pinout: inputs and outputs interleaved (not flow-through); identical electrical specs and function | Requires PCB layout revision due to non-flow-through pin assignment; same timing and drive capability | Select only if redesigning for space-constrained layouts where interleaved I/O improves routing density |
| SN74FCT574QCT | Same pinout and function; lower drive (32-mA sink / 12-mA source); 12 ns max tPLH | Suitable for lighter loads and lower-speed buses; higher noise immunity due to slower edge rates | Choose when driving ≤4 TTL loads per output and timing budget allows ≥12 ns propagation delay |
Compared with CY74FCT374TQCT, CY74FCT574TQCT's flow-through pinout reduces PCB layer count and signal skew; compared with SN74FCT574QCT, it delivers 2× stronger output drive and 2 ns faster propagation - critical for high-fanout or high-frequency bus applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by CY74FCT574TQCT?
CY74FCT574TQCT supports a typical switching rate of 250 MHz, with guaranteed timing up to 100 MHz based on its 10 ns maximum propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL) and 2 ns setup time (tsu). For reliable operation at 100 MHz, ensure CP pulse width ≥7 ns and maintain clean power delivery with local decoupling.
Does CY74FCT574TQCT require external pull-up resistors on its 3-state outputs?
No, CY74FCT574TQCT does not require external pull-ups on its 3-state outputs. When OE is high, outputs enter high-impedance mode with leakage ≤±10 µA (IOZL/IOZH). Pull-ups are only needed if bus termination or default logic state is required in system-level design - not by the device itself.
Can CY74FCT574TQCT operate with a 3.3-V supply?
No, CY74FCT574TQCT is specified only for 4.75 V to 5.25 V operation. Its TTL-compatible inputs and output drive architecture require 5-V rails. For 3.3-V systems, consider TI's 74LVC574 or SN74AVC574 families, which are not drop-in replacements for CY74FCT574TQCT.
What is the purpose of the Ioff specification in CY74FCT574TQCT?
The Ioff specification in CY74FCT574TQCT defines the maximum leakage current (±1 µA) when VCC = 0 V and outputs are driven externally. This enables safe partial-power-down operation - for example, powering down the register while other bus components remain active - without risking reverse current damage to the device or upstream drivers.
How does the flow-through pinout of CY74FCT574TQCT improve PCB layout?
The flow-through pinout of CY74FCT574TQCT places D0–D7 on pins 1–8 (left side) and O0–O7 on pins 11–18 (right side), enabling straight-through trace routing from controller to peripheral. This eliminates layer jumps and vias between inputs and outputs, reducing signal skew, crosstalk, and layout complexity in high-density 8-bit bus designs.
