Product details
Overview
PI74STX1G79CX from Diodes Incorporated is a single D-type flip-flop with complementary outputs, designed for high-speed data latching and clocked storage in digital logic systems. It operates at 1.65 V to 5.5 V supply, supports 200 MHz maximum clock frequency, features 2.5 ns typical propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL), and is housed in a compact SC-70-5 package. It is used in serial-to-parallel data conversion and clock domain synchronization circuits.
For engineers reviewing the PI74STX1G79CX datasheet, PI74STX1G79CX pinout, PI74STX1G79CX application, or PI74STX1G79CX equivalent, key selection criteria include supply voltage range, propagation delay, output drive strength, input transition time tolerance, and SC-70 footprint compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device implements a positive-edge-triggered D flip-flop with true and inverted Q outputs. It uses CMOS technology for low static power consumption and rail-to-rail output swing, with guaranteed operation across industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and ESD protection exceeding 2 kV HBM.
The input stage accepts fast edge rates (tr/tf ≤ 3 ns), and the output stage delivers 24 mA sink/source capability at VCC = 3.3 V. Setup and hold times are specified at 1.5 ns and 1.0 ns respectively under standard load conditions (CL = 50 pF).
Key Specifications

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - DIN | Data Input | Asynchronous D input; sampled on rising edge of CLK; must meet setup/hold timing relative to clock. |
| 2 - GND | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all internal logic and output currents; requires low-impedance PCB connection. |
| 3 - VCC | Power Supply | Single-supply rail for core logic and output drivers; bypass capacitor (0.1 µF) recommended near pin. |
| 4 - QOUT | True Output | Complementary to /Q; drives downstream logic with full rail-swing CMOS levels. |
| 5 - CLK | Clock Input | Positive-edge-sensitive control signal; internally buffered and Schmitt-triggered for noise immunity. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar D-type flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1G79DBVR | Same SC-70-5 package; 1.65–5.5 V supply; slightly higher tPD (2.9 ns typ); identical pinout. | Validated in TI's automotive AEC-Q100 Grade 1 portfolio; preferred for automotive qualification programs. | Select when AEC-Q100 compliance is mandatory; otherwise, PI74STX1G79CX offers lower propagation delay. |
| 74AUP1G79GW,125 | Lower VCC range (0.8–3.6 V); 3.5 ns tPD (typ); same pinout; optimized for ultra-low power (0.9 µA ICC). | Suitable for battery-powered metering and wearables where sub-1 µA quiescent current is critical. | Choose for energy-constrained applications below 3.6 V; not suitable for 5 V or mixed-voltage systems. |
Compared with SN74LVC1G79DBVR and 74AUP1G79GW,125, PI74STX1G79CX delivers the lowest propagation delay (2.5 ns) within the SC-70-5 D-flip-flop category while supporting full 5 V operation-making it optimal for high-speed, mixed-voltage industrial interfaces requiring timing margin.

FAQ
What is the minimum input pulse width (tW) required for reliable CLK operation?
The minimum clock pulse width is 2.5 ns at VCC = 3.3 V, measured at 50% of VCC. This ensures proper internal latch sampling and avoids metastability. Pulse widths below this value may cause unpredictable output states or failure to toggle on valid edges.
Does PI74STX1G79CX support hot insertion or live insertion into powered systems?
No. The device lacks Ioff (power-off protection) and does not guarantee isolation of inputs/outputs when VCC = 0 V. Applying signals to DIN, CLK, or QOUT while unpowered risks latch-up or damage due to parasitic conduction paths.
Can QOUT and /Q be used simultaneously to drive differential signaling lines?
No. PI74STX1G79CX provides only QOUT (true output); /Q is not exposed on a dedicated pin. The complementary output is internal only-this part is not a dual-output flip-flop. Use PI74STX1G74 for true/complement outputs.
Is there an exposed thermal pad on the SC-70-5 package?
No. The SC-70-5 package (JEDEC MO-203AA) used for PI74STX1G79CX has no thermal pad. Thermal dissipation relies solely on copper traces connected to pins 2 (GND) and 3 (VCC); no solder paste or thermal via requirements apply.
