Product details
Overview
PI74FCT374ATS from Pericom Semiconductor is an octal D-type flip-flop register with 3-state outputs, designed for high-speed data latching and bus interface in 5V TTL-compatible systems. It features a buffered common clock, active-low output enable (OE), 25Ω series output resistors to suppress reflections, and operates across –40°C to +85°C. Typical propagation delay is 4.5 ns (max) at 5V, supporting reliable timing in memory address/data buffers and microprocessor peripheral interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the PI74FCT374ATS datasheet, PI74FCT374ATS pinout, PI74FCT374ATS application, or PI74FCT374ATS equivalent, key selection criteria include its 20-pin TSSOP package, 25Ω integrated output termination, low ground bounce, hysteresis-equipped inputs, and compatibility with FAST™-series logic replacements requiring higher speed and lower static power.
Technical Context
This device implements eight edge-triggered D flip-flops sharing a single clock (CP) input and a common 3-state output enable (OE). Data on D0–D7 is captured on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CP and appears at O0–O7 when OE is LOW; outputs enter high-impedance state when OE is HIGH. The internal architecture includes buffered clock and OE paths to minimize skew and improve noise immunity.
All outputs integrate 25Ω series resistors-unique to the FCT2XXX subfamily-enabling direct connection to transmission lines without external termination. Input hysteresis (200 mV) enhances noise rejection on control signals, while TTL-level I/O ensures seamless interfacing with legacy 5V logic families.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D register applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74FCT374CTSO | No integrated 25Ω output resistors; requires external termination for clean signal integrity | Suitable for legacy designs already using discrete termination; lower cost but higher layout overhead | Select when board space permits external resistors and cost sensitivity outweighs layout simplification benefits |
| SN74ACT374N | Higher drive strength (24 mA vs 12 mA), no hysteresis, wider VCC range (4.5–5.5 V) | Better for driving heavier capacitive loads but less robust against noise on OE/CP in industrial environments | Prefer for high-fanout, low-noise lab environments; avoid where hysteresis or integrated termination is required |
Compared with 74FCT374CTSO and SN74ACT374N, PI74FCT374ATS uniquely combines on-die 25Ω termination, input hysteresis, and industrial temperature rating-making it optimal for noise-prone, space-constrained embedded bus interfaces where layout simplicity and reliability are prioritized over raw drive strength.

FAQ
Is PI74FCT374ATS pin-compatible with standard 74FCT374 devices?
Yes, PI74FCT374ATS shares identical pinout and function with industry-standard 74FCT374 variants in 20-pin TSSOP packages. Its 25Ω output resistors do not affect pin assignment or logic behavior-only signal integrity on PCB traces. No redesign is needed when upgrading from non-terminated equivalents.
What is the purpose of the 25Ω series resistor on each output?
The 25Ω resistor is integrated into each output driver to match typical PCB trace impedance, suppressing signal reflections that cause ringing and timing errors. This eliminates the need for eight discrete 25Ω surface-mount resistors, reducing component count, layout area, and potential solder joint failures in high-reliability applications.
Can PI74FCT374ATS operate at 3.3V supply voltage?
No. PI74FCT374ATS is specified only for 5.0 V ±5% operation. Its input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V) and output drive characteristics are optimized for 5V TTL compatibility. Using 3.3V violates absolute maximum ratings and will result in undefined logic states and unreliable operation.
How does input hysteresis improve system reliability?
The 200 mV hysteresis on all inputs raises the effective VIH threshold when transitioning from LOW to HIGH and lowers VIL when transitioning from HIGH to LOW. This prevents oscillation or metastability on slowly ramping or electrically noisy control lines-especially critical for OE and CP in industrial environments with relay-induced transients or long cable runs.
