Product details
Overview
M74HC76M1R from STMicroelectronics is a high-speed CMOS dual J-K flip-flop with independent asynchronous preset (PR) and clear (CLR), edge-triggered on the negative-going clock transition, operating from 2V to 6V, delivering tPLH/tPHL ≈ 21 ns (typ.) at VCC = 6V and fMAX = 67 MHz (typ.), used in synchronous logic control and state machine design within industrial timing circuits.
For engineers reviewing the M74HC76M1R datasheet, M74HC76M1R pinout, M74HC76M1R application, or M74HC76M1R equivalent, key selection factors include dual independent J-K functionality with active-low asynchronous controls, symmetrical 4 mA output drive, ±25 mA DC output current rating, and guaranteed operation across –55°C to +125°C.
Technical Context
The M74HC76M1R implements two identical, electrically isolated J-K flip-flops in a single SO-16 package, each with separate J, K, CLK, PR, CLR, Q, and Q̅ terminals. Its C2MOS silicon gate process enables low ICC = 2 µA (max) at TA = 25°C and high noise immunity (VNIH/VNIL = 28% VCC min).
It operates as a negative-edge-triggered sequential logic device: state changes occur only on the falling edge of CK, while PR and CLR override clock action asynchronously. Propagation delays are balanced (tPLH ≅ tPHL), and input rise/fall times are specified up to 400 ns at VCC = 6V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Operating Range | 2 V to 6 V - supports mixed-voltage system interfacing and battery-powered logic designs |
| fMAX (Typ.) | 67 MHz at VCC = 6 V - enables high-speed counter and register applications in digital control systems |
| tPLH / tPHL (Typ.) | 21 ns at VCC = 6 V - ensures precise timing alignment between dual flip-flops in pipeline stages |
| IOL / IOH (Min.) | 4 mA - drives standard TTL loads or multiple 74HC inputs without buffering |
| VIH / VIL Thresholds | VIL = 1.8 V, VIH = 4.2 V at VCC = 6 V - provides 40% noise margin for robust signal integrity |
| ICC (Max.) | 40 µA over –55°C to +125°C - enables ultra-low-power hold-state operation in always-on logic |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial motor-control environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: SO-16 (Small Outline, 150 mil width), JEDEC MS-012AC compliant, surface-mount, moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 6 | 1CK, 2CK | Negative-edge clock inputs - trigger state update only on falling transition; require clean edges ≤400 ns rise/fall |
| 2, 7 | 1PR, 2PR | Active-low preset - forces Q = H, Q̅ = L asynchronously, overriding clock and data |
| 3, 8 | 1CLR, 2CLR | Active-low clear - forces Q = L, Q̅ = H asynchronously, independent of clock phase |
| 4, 9 | 1J, 2J | Data inputs controlling set behavior on next clock edge when K = L |
| 10, 14 | 1Q̅, 2Q̅ | Inverted outputs - provide complementary logic states for differential signaling or feedback paths |
| 11, 15 | 1Q, 2Q | True outputs - deliver registered logic state synchronized to CK falling edge |
| 12, 16 | 1K, 2K | Data inputs controlling reset behavior on next clock edge when J = L |
| 5 | VCC | Positive supply rail - must be decoupled locally with ≥100 nF ceramic capacitor |
| 13 | GND | Digital ground reference - shared return path for both flip-flops; requires low-impedance PCB routing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent J-K flip-flops | Enables compact implementation of 2-bit counters, shift registers, or state machines without inter-device skew |
| Asynchronous active-low PR/CLR | Allows immediate initialization or fault recovery without waiting for clock edge or data setup |
| Symmetrical output drive (|IOH| = IOL = 4 mA) | Eliminates need for external pull-ups/downs in bus-driven or wired-OR configurations |
| High noise immunity (28% VCC) | Reduces susceptibility to crosstalk and EMI in dense PCB layouts with mixed analog/digital sections |
| Wide temperature range (–55°C to +125°C) | Supports deployment in engine control units, power inverters, and outdoor industrial controllers |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HC76DR | TI part; identical pinout and AC specs, but wider VCC range (2–6 V vs. TI's 2–6 V), same –40°C to +85°C temp grade | Limited to commercial temperature range; not rated for extended –55°C to +125°C operation | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs extended temperature requirement and TI supply chain preference applies |
| 74VHC76M | ON Semiconductor part; 3.3 V optimized (fMAX = 115 MHz at VCC = 3.3 V), but reduced noise margin (20% VCC) | Better speed at 3.3 V, but lower noise immunity limits use in noisy motor-drive environments | Prefer for high-speed 3.3 V systems where board-level noise is tightly controlled |
Compared with SN74HC76DR and 74VHC76M, the M74HC76M1R uniquely combines extended temperature support (–55°C to +125°C), high noise immunity (28% VCC), and proven industrial reliability-making it optimal for harsh-environment control logic where thermal stability and EMI resilience are non-negotiable.

FAQ
Is M74HC76M1R compatible with 5 V TTL logic levels?
Yes - at VCC = 5 V, the M74HC76M1R guarantees VIH = 3.15 V (min) and VIL = 1.35 V (max), exceeding standard TTL thresholds (2.0 V VIH, 0.8 V VIL). Its 4 mA output drive can directly interface with 74LS loads, though series termination may be needed for fast edges on long traces.
Can PR and CLR be tied together for synchronous reset functionality?
No - PR and CLR are asynchronous and active-low; tying them does not create synchronous behavior. To achieve clock-synchronized reset, J and K must both be held HIGH while applying a clock edge, leveraging the TOGGLE function per truth table. External gating logic is required for true synchronous reset.
What is the maximum capacitive load this device can drive reliably?
Driving CL > 50 pF degrades tPLH/tPHL and increases propagation delay variation. The datasheet specifies AC characteristics at CL = 50 pF; for loads up to 100 pF, derate fMAX by ~25% and verify timing margins with worst-case VCC/temperature corners using the CPD = 38 pF value in power calculations.
Does M74HC76M1R support hot insertion or live insertion into powered systems?
No - the device lacks hot-swap protection circuitry. Applying VCC before GND, or connecting inputs before supply stabilization, risks latch-up due to internal diode conduction. Always follow proper power sequencing: GND first, then VCC, then signals - and use series resistors on all inputs if live insertion is unavoidable.
