Product details
Overview
JM38510/37102B2A from Texas Instruments is a dual J-K positive-edge-triggered flip-flop IC designed for high-reliability military logic systems. It features two independent flip-flops, operates across −55°C to 125°C, supports 30 MHz maximum clock frequency, dissipates 6 mW per flip-flop, and uses TTL-compatible input thresholds with active-low asynchronous preset and clear. It is used in radiation-tolerant avionics timing control and hardened digital state machines.
For engineers reviewing the JM38510/37102B2A datasheet, JM38510/37102B2A pinout, JM38510/37102B2A application, or JM38510/37102B2A equivalent, key selection criteria include military-grade temperature range, LCCC-20 ceramic package compatibility, guaranteed 30 MHz operation under full temp range, and direct replacement capability for SN54ALS109AFK in QML-38510 qualified designs.
Technical Context
This device implements two fully independent J-K flip-flops with asynchronous active-low PRE and CLR inputs that override clocked operation. Each flip-flop samples J and K inputs on the positive-going edge of CLK, with setup time (15 ns) and hold time (0 ns) specified at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V and full military temperature range.
It belongs to the ALS (Advanced Low-Power Schottky) logic family, delivering higher speed than standard LS while maintaining low power: typical propagation delay tPLH/tPHL ≤ 21 ns, ICC ≤ 4 mA at VCC = 5.5 V, and VOL ≤ 0.4 V at IOL = 4 mA. No 3-state or open-collector outputs are present - all outputs are totem-pole.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | ALS (Advanced Low-Power Schottky) - balances speed and power for military-grade TTL systems |
| Clock Frequency Max | 30 MHz - guaranteed over −55°C to 125°C, enabling real-time control in flight computers |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with regulated 5 V military power rails; absolute max 7 V |
| Input Thresholds | VIL = 0.7 V, VIH = 2.0 V - ensures noise margin against TTL-level signals in noisy platforms |
| Output Drive | IOL = 4 mA / IOH = −0.4 mA - sufficient to drive 10+ standard TTL loads without buffering |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 21 ns - enables sub-34 ns cycle timing in synchronous state machines |
| Power Dissipation | 6 mW per flip-flop at 5 V - supports dense packaging in conduction-cooled avionics modules |
Pinout & Package
Package: 20-lead Ceramic Leadless Chip Carrier (LCCC), FK package drawing, hermetically sealed, lead finish POST-PLATE, MSL N/A (non-moisture-sensitive).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1CLR | Active-low asynchronous clear for first flip-flop; forces Q = L, Q̅ = H when asserted |
| 2 | 1J | Data input J for first flip-flop; controls set behavior on next clock edge when PRE/CLR inactive |
| 3 | 1K | Data input K for first flip-flop; controls reset behavior on next clock edge when PRE/CLR inactive |
| 4 | 1CLK | Positive-edge-triggered clock input for first flip-flop; edge-sensitive, voltage-level triggered |
| 5 | 1PRE | Active-low asynchronous preset for first flip-flop; forces Q = H, Q̅ = L when asserted |
| 6 | 1Q | True output of first flip-flop; complementary to 1Q̅, driven actively high/low |
| 7 | 1Q̅ | Inverted output of first flip-flop; complementary to 1Q, driven actively high/low |
| 8 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuitry and I/O; must be low-impedance in EMI-critical layouts |
| 9 | VCC | +5 V supply pin; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling adjacent to pin |
| 10 | 2CLR | Active-low asynchronous clear for second flip-flop; independent of first flip-flop's control |
| 11 | 2J | Data input J for second flip-flop; functionally identical to 1J but electrically isolated |
| 12 | 2K | Data input K for second flip-flop; functionally identical to 1K but electrically isolated |
| 13 | 2CLK | Positive-edge-triggered clock input for second flip-flop; no internal coupling to 1CLK |
| 14 | 2PRE | Active-low asynchronous preset for second flip-flop; independent of first flip-flop's PRE |
| 15 | 2Q | True output of second flip-flop; fully buffered, same drive strength as 1Q |
| 16 | 2Q̅ | Inverted output of second flip-flop; fully buffered, same drive strength as 1Q̅ |
| 17–20 | NC | No internal connection - unused pads; must remain unconnected and unbonded in PCB layout |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent J-K flip-flops | Enables compact implementation of 2-bit counters, shift registers, or dual-channel synchronizers without inter-chip skew |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SNJ54ALS109AFK | Identical electrical specs, same LCCC-20 package, QML-38535 Class B qualified; differs only in MIL-STD-883 test flow labeling | Same use cases - avionics, defense, space - but SNJ54ALS109AFK carries legacy TI part numbering without JAN prefix | Select SNJ54ALS109AFK if sourcing through legacy defense logistics channels requiring exact historical nomenclature |
| JM38510/37102BEA | Same functionality and military temp range, but packaged in 16-pin CDIP (J package) instead of LCCC-20; higher thermal resistance and larger footprint | Suitable for board-level retrofits where LCCC rework is impractical, but not for new high-density or high-vibration designs | Choose JM38510/37102BEA only when CDIP socket compatibility or manual assembly constraints override LCCC advantages |
Compared with SNJ54ALS109AFK, JM38510/37102B2A offers identical functional and environmental performance but reflects updated JAN specification traceability; versus JM38510/37102BEA, it delivers superior thermal management and vibration resistance via LCCC packaging - critical for modern embedded military platforms.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range certified for JM38510/37102B2A?
JM38510/37102B2A is qualified per MIL-PRF-38535 Class B for continuous operation from −55°C to 125°C. This rating is verified through temperature cycling, steady-state burn-in, and parametric testing across the full range - not extrapolated. The LCCC-20 package contributes to thermal stability in this envelope.
Does JM38510/37102B2A support 3.3 V operation?
No, JM38510/37102B2A is strictly a 5 V TTL-family device with recommended VCC of 4.5 V to 5.5 V. Its input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.7 V) and output drive characteristics are optimized for 5 V signaling. Operation below 4.5 V violates recommended conditions and may cause timing failures or increased static current.
Can JM38510/37102B2A be used as a D-type flip-flop?
Yes - JM38510/37102B2A can function as a D-type flip-flop by tying its J and K inputs together. When J = K = D, the output follows D on the next positive clock edge. This configuration is explicitly supported in the device's functional description and requires no external components beyond the J–K tie.
What is the maximum clock frequency guaranteed across temperature for JM38510/37102B2A?
JM38510/37102B2A guarantees 30 MHz maximum clock frequency over its full −55°C to 125°C operating range. This value is production-tested per MIL-STD-883 Method 5011 and appears in the "recommended operating conditions" table - not a characterization-only figure.
Is JM38510/37102B2A RoHS compliant?
JM38510/37102B2A uses a POST-PLATE lead finish and is exempt from RoHS lead restrictions under EU Directive 2011/65/EU Annex III, as permitted for high-reliability aerospace and defense applications. Its qualification per MIL-PRF-38535 supersedes commercial RoHS requirements.
