Product details
Overview
SN74ABT574ANE4 from Texas Instruments is an octal edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs in a 20-pin PDIP package, operating at 4.5–5.5 V, supporting 150 MHz clock frequency, −32 mA/64 mA high-drive outputs, and Ioff partial-power-down capability. It serves as a bidirectional bus driver or I/O port register in industrial control backplanes and legacy data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74ABT574ANE4 datasheet, SN74ABT574ANE4 pinout, SN74ABT574ANE4 application, or SN74ABT574ANE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3-state output enable timing (tPZL = 2.5 ns typ), ground-bounce immunity (<1 V VOLP), latch-up robustness (>500 mA), and compatibility with 5-V TTL/CMOS bus interfaces requiring high fan-out and hot-swap support.
Technical Context
This device implements eight independent positive-edge-triggered D flip-flops with synchronous data capture on CLK↑ and asynchronous 3-state control via OE. Each Q output retains its state when OE is high, and enters high-impedance when OE is low-without affecting internal storage.
It features Ioff circuitry enabling safe partial-power-down operation, ESD protection exceeding 2000-V HBM and 200-V MM, and rail-to-rail input tolerance (−0.5 V to 7 V). The design targets high-noise industrial environments where bus contention, ground bounce, and power sequencing must be managed without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Function | Octal D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs - enables time-synchronized latching and bus isolation in shared-data-path systems. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5-V TTL logic rails and tolerant of supply ripple up to ±0.5 V. |
| Output Drive | −32 mA IOH / 64 mA IOL - drives heavy capacitive loads (e.g., >50 pF traces) without external buffers or pull-ups. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 150 MHz - supports high-speed parallel data transfer in legacy microprocessor peripheral interfaces. |
| Ioff Current | ±100 μA max at VCC = 0 - prevents backflow current during power-down, enabling live insertion in modular backplane systems. |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 6.8 ns (CLK→Q) - ensures tight setup/hold timing margins for synchronous 150-MHz operation. |
| Enable Timing | tPZL ≤ 5.9 ns, tPHZ ≤ 6.2 ns (OE→Q) - guarantees fast bus release and acquisition for dynamic bus arbitration. |
Pinout & Package
SN74ABT574ANE4 uses a 20-pin plastic dual in-line package (PDIP-N), 0.300″ wide, with standard through-hole mounting and JEDEC MS-001 compliant footprint. Pin 1 is located at the top-left corner with notch orientation marking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 | Data inputs (1D–8D) | Asynchronous D inputs for each flip-flop; sampled on rising CLK edge. |
| 9 | GND | Power ground reference for all logic and output stages. |
| 10 | VCC | Positive supply (4.5–5.5 V); powers internal logic and output drivers. |
| 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 | Outputs (1Q–8Q) | 3-state buffered outputs; driven high/low when OE = L, high-Z when OE = H. |
| 19 | CLK | Global positive-edge clock input; triggers simultaneous latching of all eight D inputs. |
| 20 | OE | Active-low output enable; controls 3-state behavior independently of clock or data state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High-Drive Outputs | −32 mA source / 64 mA sink capability eliminates need for external bus transceivers in high-capacitance backplane designs. |
| Ioff Partial-Power-Down | Enables safe insertion/removal while system is powered; prevents damaging current flow when VCC = 0 but bus signals remain active. |
| Low Ground Bounce | VOLP < 1 V at 5 V/25°C ensures signal integrity during simultaneous output switching in dense PCB layouts. |
| Latch-Up Immunity | Exceeds 500 mA per JESD17 - critical for reliability in industrial environments with EFT and surge exposure. |
| ESD Robustness | 2000-V HBM and 200-V MM rating reduces risk of handling damage and field failures in unshielded assembly lines. |
Applications
| Industrial Backplane Interface | Legacy Microprocessor I/O Expansion |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type flip-flop with 3-state output applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ABT574ADW | SOIC-20 package (DW), same electrical specs, 58°C/W θJA vs. N-package's 69°C/W. | Better thermal performance in surface-mount, space-constrained PCBs; not suitable for through-hole prototyping. | Select when board real estate is limited and reflow assembly is used; verify pad layout per DW drawing MO-118. |
| SN74ABT574APWR | TSSOP-20 package (PW), same logic and timing, 83°C/W θJA, smaller footprint (4.4 × 6.5 mm). | Higher thermal resistance requires careful power derating above 70°C ambient; ideal for compact consumer-grade modules. | Choose for miniaturized designs where volume production justifies TSSOP reflow process control; avoid in high-ambient industrial enclosures. |
Compared with SN74ABT574ADW and SN74ABT574APWR, SN74ABT574ANE4 offers mechanical robustness and hand-soldering compatibility via PDIP, lower thermal resistance than TSSOP, and proven reliability in legacy repair and field-service scenarios-making it optimal for maintenance, prototyping, and low-volume industrial builds.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by SN74ABT574ANE4?
The SN74ABT574ANE4 supports a maximum clock frequency of 150 MHz under recommended operating conditions (VCC = 5 V, TA = 25°C). This value is guaranteed across the full commercial temperature range (−40°C to 85°C), with typical propagation delays (tPLH/tPHL) of 2.2–6.8 ns ensuring timing margin for synchronous bus protocols.
Does SN74ABT574ANE4 support partial-power-down operation?
Yes, SN74ABT574ANE4 incorporates Ioff circuitry that disables outputs when VCC = 0, limiting Ioff to ±100 μA maximum. This feature prevents damaging current backflow during hot-insertion or staged power sequencing-critical for modular backplane systems where SN74ABT574ANE4 may be powered down while bus lines remain active.
What is the output drive strength of SN74ABT574ANE4?
SN74ABT574ANE4 delivers −32 mA high-level output current (IOH) and 64 mA low-level output current (IOL) at VCC = 5 V. This high-drive capability allows direct driving of heavily loaded 5-V TTL/CMOS buses (e.g., >50 pF traces or multiple gate inputs) without external buffers or pull-up resistors.
How does the OE pin function on SN74ABT574ANE4?
The OE (output enable) pin on SN74ABT574ANE4 is active-low and asynchronous: when OE = L, outputs reflect current Q states; when OE = H, all eight outputs enter high-impedance mode regardless of CLK or D input activity. OE does not affect internal flip-flop operation-data can be latched or retained while outputs are disabled.
Is SN74ABT574ANE4 pin-compatible with other packages in the SN74ABT574A family?
Yes, SN74ABT574ANE4 shares identical pinout and logic functionality with all SN74ABT574A variants-including SOIC (DW), SSOP (DB), TSSOP (PW), and VFBGA (GQN/ZQN)-as confirmed by TI's SCBS191F datasheet. All packages use the same 20-pin assignment: pins 1–8 = D inputs, 11–18 = Q outputs, 19 = CLK, 20 = OE, 9 = GND, 10 = VCC.
