Product details
Overview
N74F574N,602 from Philips Semiconductors is an octal D-type edge-triggered flip-flop with 3-State outputs, designed for bus-oriented microprocessor I/O port expansion and data latching in TTL-compatible systems. It features a 180 MHz maximum clock frequency, 5.0 ns typical propagation delay (CP to Qn), 50 mA typical total supply current at VCC = 5 V, and broadside 20-pin DIP packaging enabling clean PCB routing. It operates across 0°C to +70°C with 4.5–5.5 V supply voltage.
For engineers reviewing the N74F574N,602 datasheet, N74F574N,602 pinout, N74F574N,602 application, or N74F574N,602 equivalent, key selection considerations include its rising-edge clock trigger behavior, independent active-low Output Enable (OE), high-drive 3-State outputs (24 mA sink), glitch-free power-up output state, and compatibility with legacy 74F374-based designs requiring broadside layout optimization.
Technical Context
The N74F574N,602 implements eight fully edge-triggered D flip-flops synchronized on the Low-to-High transition of the CP input, with setup time of 2.5 ns and hold time of 0 ns at 25°C. Each flip-flop drives a dedicated 3-State output buffer controlled separately by the active-Low OE signal.
Its broadside pinout places all eight D inputs on one side (pins 2–9) and corresponding Q outputs on the opposite side (pins 12–19), minimizing trace crossovers when interfacing with 8-bit data buses. The device maintains high-impedance outputs during power-up/down transitions, preventing bus contention without external reset circuitry.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74F374N | Same function and pinout but non-broadside layout; 5.5 ns max tPLH/tPHL; identical AC/DC specs | Requires PCB redesign due to different D/Q pin arrangement; no change in logic or timing behavior | Select SN74F374N only when reusing legacy board layouts designed for narrow-side pinout |
| 74ACT574PC | Advanced CMOS (ACT) family; 3.3 V tolerant inputs; 10 ns max tPLH/tPHL; lower ICC (20 mA typ) | Not 5 V TTL-compatible; requires level-shifting if interfacing with legacy 5 V buses | Choose 74ACT574PC for new low-power, mixed-voltage designs where 5 V tolerance is not required |
Compared with SN74F374N and 74ACT574PC, the N74F574N,602 uniquely combines 5 V TTL compatibility, broadside layout advantage, and guaranteed glitch-free 3-State behavior during power transitions-making it optimal for retrofitting and maintaining legacy microprocessor systems without layout revision.

FAQ
What is the clocking behavior of the N74F574N,602?
The N74F574N,602 is a positive-edge-triggered octal D flip-flop: data present at D0–D7 one setup time before the Low-to-High transition of the CP input is transferred to Q0–Q7. Its setup time is 2.5 ns (min) at 25°C, and hold time is 0 ns, enabling robust synchronization in high-frequency microprocessor write cycles. This behavior is confirmed in the FUNCTION TABLE – 74F574 section of the Philips specification.
Does the N74F574N,602 have built-in power-up protection for its outputs?
Yes, the N74F574N,602 guarantees glitch-free 3-State outputs during power-up and power-down transitions. Its outputs remain in high-impedance state until VCC stabilizes within operating range, preventing bus contention without external reset circuitry. This feature is explicitly documented under FEATURES and verified in the AC WAVEFORMS and APPLICATIONS sections of the Philips datasheet.
Can the N74F574N,602 be used as a direct replacement for the 74F374?
Yes, the N74F574N,602 is functionally identical to the 74F374 but uses a broadside pinout (D and Q pins on opposite sides of the package). It shares identical AC/DC electrical specifications, timing parameters, and logic behavior. No changes to firmware or timing constraints are needed-only PCB layout may require adaptation to accommodate the revised pin arrangement.
What is the maximum output drive capability of the N74F574N,602?
The N74F574N,602 provides 24 mA low-level output current (IOL) and –3 mA high-level output current (IOH) per Q pin, as specified in the DC ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS table. This allows direct interfacing with standard TTL loads and heavily loaded 3-State buses without external drivers, supporting up to 150 FAST Unit Loads in the Low state.
Is the N74F574N,602 compatible with 3.3 V logic systems?
No, the N74F574N,602 is a 5 V TTL-family device with VCC specified at 4.5–5.5 V and input thresholds (VIL = 0.8 V, VVIH = 2.0 V) optimized for 5 V operation. While it may accept 3.3 V logic-high inputs marginally, it is not guaranteed to operate reliably or meet timing specs in 3.3 V systems. Use 74ACT574 or level-shifting circuitry for true 3.3 V compatibility.
