Product details
Overview
JM38510/37103B2A from Texas Instruments is a dual J-K negative-edge-triggered flip-flop IC designed for high-reliability military logic systems. It contains two independent flip-flops, operates over −55°C to 125°C, supports up to 25 MHz clock frequency, dissipates 6 mW per flip-flop typical, and features fully buffered inputs for maximum noise immunity in harsh environments such as avionics control and radiation-tolerant digital sequencers.
For engineers reviewing the JM38510/37103B2A datasheet, JM38510/37103B2A pinout, JM38510/37103B2A application, or JM38510/37103B2A equivalent, this device is selected for deterministic edge-triggered state storage in synchronous military-grade digital systems where input isolation, temperature resilience, and MIL-PRF-38535 Class B qualification are mandatory.
Technical Context
The JM38510/37103B2A implements two independent J-K flip-flops with asynchronous active-low preset (PRE) and clear (CLR), each triggered on the negative-going edge of CLK. Clock triggering is voltage-level–based-not dependent on fall time-ensuring robust timing across wide temperature and supply variations.
It uses Advanced Low-Power Schottky (ALS) bipolar technology, delivering 25 MHz max clock frequency at VCC = 4.5 V–5.5 V, 4 mA low-level output drive (IOL), and −0.4 mA high-level output current (IOH), with setup time (tsu) of 22 ns and hold time (th) of 0 ns relative to CLK↓.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Clock Frequency | 25 MHz maximum - defines maximum synchronous system clock rate without timing violation |
| Operating Temperature | −55°C to 125°C - qualified for full military ambient range per MIL-PRF-38535 |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5 V TTL/ALS logic rails with margin for ripple |
| Power Dissipation | 6 mW per flip-flop typical - enables dense packaging in thermally constrained avionics modules |
| Output Drive | IOL = 4 mA / IOH = −0.4 mA - sufficient to drive multiple ALS loads or interface to discrete buffers |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 26 ns (max) - ensures predictable timing margins in critical control-state machines |
| Input Thresholds | VIL = 0.7 V, VIH = 2.0 V - maintains noise immunity with ≥0.4 V DC noise margin under worst-case VCC |
Pinout & Package
Package: 20-lead Ceramic Leadless Chip Carrier (LCCC), FK package per MIL-STD-1835, hermetically sealed, lead finish POST-PLATE, RoHS-exempt per military specification.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 13, 14, 16, 17, 19, 20 | No internal connection (NC) | Unused pads; must remain unconnected to avoid parasitic coupling or mechanical stress |
| 3 | 2CLR | Asynchronous active-low clear for second flip-flop; overrides clock and data when asserted |
| 6 | 2CLK | Negative-edge clock input for second flip-flop; triggers state update on falling transition |
| 9 | 2K | Data input for second flip-flop; controls reset behavior when J=H and K=L, or toggle when J=K=H |
| 10 | 2J | Data input for second flip-flop; controls set behavior when J=L and K=H, or toggle when J=K=H |
| 11 | 2PRE | Asynchronous active-low preset for second flip-flop; forces Q=H regardless of other inputs |
| 12 | 2Q | True output of second flip-flop; complements 2Q̅ and updates only on CLK↓ or PRE/CLR assertion |
| 15 | 2Q̅ | Inverted output of second flip-flop; provides complementary state for differential routing or feedback |
| 18 | VCC | Positive supply terminal; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling adjacent to pin |
| GND | Ground | Reference return path; tied to substrate plane in LCCC for minimal ground bounce |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fully buffered inputs | Isolates internal logic from external noise transients, enabling reliable operation in EMI-intensive platforms like radar subsystems |
| Negative-edge clock triggering | Eliminates sensitivity to clock rise-time distortion, supporting clean state transitions even with slow-rising clocks |
| Asynchronous PRE/CLR | Allows immediate initialization or fault recovery independent of clock phase-critical for safety-critical reset sequences |
| TTL-compatible I/O levels | Direct interoperation with legacy 5 V TTL, ALS, and AS families without level-shifting circuitry |
| MIL-PRF-38535 Class B qualification | Guarantees screening, testing, and traceability per U.S. Department of Defense requirements for flight-critical hardware |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN54ALS112AJ | Same die, CDIP-16 package (J), no NC pins; identical electrical specs and temp range | Lacks LCCC's hermeticity and vibration resistance; suitable for board-level prototypes but not sealed chassis | Select SN54ALS112AJ for lab validation where FK package assembly is unavailable |
| SNJ54ALS112AJ | Identical to SN54ALS112AJ but with enhanced screening per JAN specification; same package and timing | Higher test coverage and lot traceability; required for DoD procurement contracts citing MIL-STD-883 | Choose SNJ54ALS112AJ when contractual compliance mandates JAN-level documentation and burn-in |
Compared with JM38510/37103B2A, SN54ALS112AJ offers identical logic function and speed but reduced mechanical ruggedness due to through-hole DIP construction, while SNJ54ALS112AJ adds JAN screening rigor without altering timing or drive capability-making it ideal for audit-driven defense programs.

FAQ
What is the qualified temperature range for JM38510/37103B2A?
JM38510/37103B2A is characterized for continuous operation from −55°C to 125°C per MIL-PRF-38535 Class B requirements. This range is verified through temperature cycling, steady-state bias life testing, and parametric screening across the full interval-not extrapolated or derated.
Does JM38510/37103B2A support toggle mode operation?
Yes, JM38510/37103B2A supports toggle mode by tying both J and K inputs high on either flip-flop. In this configuration, the output toggles on every negative clock edge-confirmed in the device's function table and used in frequency-division circuits within radar timing subsystems.
What package type is JM38510/37103B2A supplied in?
JM38510/37103B2A is supplied exclusively in the 20-lead Ceramic Leadless Chip Carrier (LCCC) package, designated FK per MIL-STD-1835. It features a hermetic ceramic body, gold-plated leads with post-plate finish, and no external leads-requiring solder reflow onto land-grid arrays.
How does the clock triggering mechanism work in JM38510/37103B2A?
JM38510/37103B2A triggers on the negative-going edge of CLK at a defined voltage threshold-not based on edge slew rate. This voltage-level detection ensures consistent timing behavior across varying clock rise/fall times and supply voltages, as specified in the SDAS199A datasheet timing diagrams.
Is JM38510/37103B2A pin-compatible with commercial SN74ALS112A variants?
No, JM38510/37103B2A is not pin-compatible with SN74ALS112A variants. It uses a 20-pin LCCC (FK) package with 12 NC pins, whereas SN74ALS112A uses 16-pin DIP (N), SOIC (D), or NS packages with full pin utilization-requiring PCB redesign for substitution.
