Product details
Overview
M74HC74RM13TR from STMicroelectronics is a high-speed CMOS dual D-type flip-flop with independent asynchronous preset and clear, operating across 2V–6V supply, delivering tPLH/tPHL ≤26 ns (typ.) at VCC = 6V, fMAX = 67 MHz (typ.), and symmetrical 4 mA output drive - deployed in clock-synchronized data latching and edge-triggered state control within industrial PLC I/O modules.
For engineers reviewing the M74HC74RM13TR datasheet, M74HC74RM13TR pinout, M74HC74RM13TR application, or M74HC74RM13TR equivalent, key selection criteria include asynchronous set/reset timing margins, propagation delay matching between Q/Q̅ outputs, noise immunity (VNIH/VNIL ≥28% VCC), and TSSOP-14 thermal performance under continuous 125°C operation.
Technical Context
The M74HC74RM13TR implements two independent edge-triggered D flip-flops using silicon gate C2MOS technology, each with separate low-active asynchronous PRESET (1PR/2PR) and CLEAR (1CLR/2CLR) inputs that override clock and data. Its positive-edge clocking (1CK/2CK) ensures deterministic state capture on rising transitions only.
DC input thresholds are rail-proportional (VIH = 0.7×VCC, VIL = 0.3×VCC), enabling robust interfacing with mixed-voltage logic families. Output drive strength is symmetric (|IOH| = IOL = 4 mA min), and propagation delays are balanced (tPLH ≅ tPHL) to minimize skew in complementary output pairs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Operating Range | 2 V to 6 V - supports direct interface with 3.3 V and 5 V logic systems without level shifters |
| fMAX (Typ.) | 67 MHz at VCC = 6 V - enables reliable operation in high-speed digital control loops up to 15 ns clock period |
| tPLH / tPHL (Max) | 38 ns at VCC = 6 V, TA = –55°C to +125°C - guarantees worst-case setup/hold timing margin in extended temperature environments |
| IOH / IOL (Min) | 4 mA - drives standard TTL loads or multiple 74HC inputs while maintaining VOH ≥4.18 V / VOL ≤0.26 V |
| VNIH / VNIL (Min) | 28 % VCC - provides ≥1.68 V noise margin at 6 V supply, rejecting common-mode transients on control lines |
| ICC (Max) | 40 µA at TA = –55°C to +125°C - enables ultra-low static power in battery-backed or energy-constrained monitoring nodes |
| ts / th (Min) | 3 ns setup / 0 ns hold at VCC = 6 V - simplifies PCB routing by eliminating external delay compensation for D-to-CK timing |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-14 package: 4.9 mm × 6.4 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, 1.2 mm height, lead-free, RoHS-compliant, optimized for automated SMT assembly and thermal dissipation in dense layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 13 | 1CLR, 2CLR | Asynchronous active-low reset - forces Q = 0, Q̅ = 1 regardless of clock or D state; requires pull-up for noise immunity |
| 2, 12 | 1D, 2D | Data input - sampled on rising clock edge; must be stable ≥3 ns before CK (ts) and ≥0 ns after CK (th) |
| 3, 11 | 1CK, 2CK | Positive-edge clock - triggers synchronous latch action; minimum pulse width 6 ns at VCC = 6 V |
| 4, 10 | 1PR, 2PR | Asynchronous active-low preset - forces Q = 1, Q̅ = 0 independently of clock or D; overrides CLR when both asserted |
| 5, 9 | 1Q, 2Q | True output - reflects stored D value after clock edge; drives downstream logic or status indicators |
| 6, 8 | 1Q̅, 2Q̅ | Inverted output - complements Q; used for differential signaling, toggle feedback, or dual-rail control paths |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference - dedicated return path for all internal logic and output currents; must be low-impedance |
| 14 | VCC | Positive supply - powers all gates and output drivers; bypass capacitor (100 nF) required within 5 mm |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Asynchronous Set/Clear Independence | PRESET and CLEAR operate without clock dependency, enabling immediate state initialization or fault recovery in safety-critical sequences |
| Symmetrical Output Drive | Matched |IOH| and IOL ensure equal rise/fall times and minimal duty-cycle distortion in clock distribution networks |
| Rail-Proportional Input Thresholds | VIH/VIL scale with VCC, allowing seamless interoperability across 2.0 V, 3.3 V, and 5.0 V logic domains without external biasing |
| Low Dynamic Power Consumption | CPD = 34 pF enables <1 mW average power at 10 MHz clock rate and 5 V supply - critical for thermally constrained enclosures |
| Extended Temperature Operation | Specified from –55°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive sensors and industrial motor drive control boards |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual D-type flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HC74DR | SOIC-14 package; 35 ns max tPLH at 6 V; ICC = 40 µA same spec; identical AC/DC parameters | Larger footprint and lower thermal conductivity than TSSOP-14; unsuitable for space-constrained metering PCBs | Select when legacy SOIC layout reuse or hand-soldering prototyping is required |
| 74LVC74ABQ | 3.3 V only (1.65–3.6 V); 2.5 ns faster tPLH (35 ns → 32.5 ns); higher IOL = 24 mA; different pinout (no shared VCC/GND) | Not compatible with 5 V systems; requires level-shifting if interfacing with legacy 5 V peripherals | Select only in new 3.3 V-only designs requiring higher drive strength and tighter timing budgets |
Compared with SN74HC74DR and 74LVC74ABQ, M74HC74RM13TR uniquely balances wide 2–6 V operation, TSSOP-14 thermal efficiency, and full 74-series functional compatibility - making it optimal for mixed-voltage industrial upgrades where board area and temperature range are primary constraints.

FAQ
Can M74HC74RM13TR operate reliably at 2.0 V supply?
Yes. The device is fully specified down to 2.0 V: fMAX = 6.2 MHz (min), tPLH/tPHL ≤225 ns, and VIH/VIL thresholds scale to 1.5 V / 0.5 V. It maintains functional integrity in battery-powered systems during brown-out conditions, provided load capacitance remains ≤50 pF and clock rise time stays within 1000 ns.
What is the recommended decoupling for M74HC74RM13TR in TSSOP-14?
A 100 nF X7R ceramic capacitor placed within 3 mm of pins 7 (GND) and 14 (VCC) is mandatory. For systems with >10 MHz clock activity or adjacent switching regulators, add a 1 µF tantalum in parallel. Avoid shared vias between GND and VCC traces to prevent ground bounce-induced metastability.
How does asynchronous clear interact with clock and data inputs?
When 1CLR or 2CLR is pulled low, Q immediately goes to 0 and Q̅ to 1 - overriding any concurrent D value or clock edge. This action occurs independently of clock timing and requires no setup/hold window. Release of CLR restores normal clocked operation on the next rising edge, provided D is stable.
Is M74HC74RM13TR pin-compatible with older 74HC74 variants in TSSOP?
Yes. M74HC74RM13TR uses the industry-standard TSSOP-14 footprint (JEDEC MO-153) with 0.65 mm pitch and identical pin numbering as M74HC74TTR and 74HC74PW. Mechanical dimensions, solder paste stencil recommendations, and reflow profiles match ST's published TSSOP14 specifications without modification.
