Product details
Overview
SN74ABT574ANS from NXP Semiconductors is an octal D-type edge-triggered flip-flop with 3-state outputs, designed for high-speed bus interfacing in digital systems. It features a rising-edge clock (CP), active-low output enable (OE), 8-bit parallel data storage, and operates across 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply voltage with propagation delays as low as 1.5 ns (tPLH). It is commonly used in microprocessor data bus latching and memory address/data buffering.
For engineers reviewing the SN74ABT574ANS datasheet, SN74ABT574ANS pinout, SN74ABT574ANS application, or SN74ABT574ANS equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, package-specific pin mapping (DIP20), real-world interface roles, and validated alternative options for industrial control, embedded computing, and legacy system upgrades requiring TTL-compatible 3-state logic.
Technical Context
The SN74ABT574ANS implements eight independent D-type flip-flops, each triggered on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of CP, with setup times as low as 0.2 ns (tsu(L)) and hold times down to −0.4 ns (th(L)). Its BiCMOS architecture enables both low static current (ICC ≤ 250 µA) and high drive capability (IOL = 64 mA, IOH = −32 mA).
All eight 3-state outputs are controlled synchronously by a common OE input, independent of clock operation-enabling bus contention avoidance during power-up, hot insertion, and dynamic bus arbitration. The device includes latch-up protection (>500 mA per JESD78B Class II Level A) and ESD robustness (HBM > 2000 V, MM > 200 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Function | Octal D-type positive-edge-triggered register with 3-state outputs |
| Supply Voltage (VCC) | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard 5 V TTL and CMOS systems |
| Max Clock Frequency | 125 MHz at −40 °C to +85 °C - supports high-throughput data capture in legacy buses |
| tPLH/tPHL | 1.5–5.0 ns - ensures sub-5 ns timing margin for 100+ MHz synchronous designs |
| IOL / IOH | 64 mA / −32 mA - drives heavily loaded 3-state buses, MOS memories, and microprocessor data lines |
| Input Clamping Voltage (VIK) | −1.2 V - protects against negative transients during live insertion or bus contention |
| Power-Up Behavior | 3-state outputs default to high-impedance - prevents bus conflicts at power-on reset |
Pinout & Package
SN74ABT574ANS is supplied in a plastic dual in-line package (DIP20), 300 mil body width, with 20 leads and through-hole mounting. Pin 1 is marked by a notch or dot; the package complies with JEDEC MS-001 and is RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | Active-low 3-state output enable | Drives all Q outputs into high-Z when HIGH; no clock dependency - enables bus isolation during idle or reset |
| 2–9 (D0–D7) | Data inputs | Sampled on rising edge of CP; require setup/hold times relative to CP edge for reliable capture |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for logic and output currents; must be low-impedance for noise immunity |
| 11 (CP) | Clock pulse input | Rising-edge sensitive; minimum pulse width 2.0 ns (HIGH) and 2.0 ns (LOW) required for reliable triggering |
| 12–19 (Q7–Q0) | 3-state registered outputs | Reflect Dn state after CP edge when OE is LOW; enter high-Z when OE is HIGH |
| 20 (VCC) | Positive supply | Must be decoupled locally (0.1 µF ceramic + bulk capacitor) to sustain transient output current demands |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Flow-through pinout (DIP20) | Inputs on one side (pins 2–9), outputs on opposite side (pins 12–19) - simplifies PCB routing for microprocessor data bus interfaces |
| Power-on 3-state | Outputs remain in high-impedance until VCC stabilizes - eliminates bus glitches during power sequencing |
| Live insertion/extraction support | Robust clamping (VIK = −1.2 V) and ESD protection (HBM > 2000 V) allow safe hot-swap in backplane or modular systems |
| Common output enable | Single OE pin controls all eight outputs - reduces control logic overhead versus individual gating |
| Latch-up immunity | Exceeds 500 mA per JESD78B Class II Level A - ensures reliability in noisy industrial environments |
Applications
| Microprocessor Data Bus Latching | Memory Address/Data Buffering |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Capturing and holding 8-bit data from an 8086/8088 or Z80 CPU during memory read/write cycles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Edge-triggered register that samples D0–D7 on rising CP and presents stable Q0–Q7 to memory or peripheral chips under OE control. Use Value: Enables clean separation of address and data phases on multiplexed buses; eliminates timing race conditions via precise setup/hold compliance (tsu = 1.0 ns, th = 1.0 ns). |
Use Scenario: Isolating and driving address or data lines between a microcontroller and SRAM or EPROM in embedded instrumentation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: 3-state buffer/register providing bidirectional bus control and signal integrity for 8-bit parallel memory interfaces. Use Value: Delivers 64 mA sink current to drive long traces or multiple loads; high-speed propagation (≤5.0 ns) maintains timing margins in 12–20 MHz systems. |
| Industrial Control I/O Expansion | Legacy System Bus Arbitration |
Use Scenario: Extending GPIO capability in PLC modules where field I/O signals must be synchronized and isolated from main controller bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Registered interface that latches sensor/actuator data on CP edge and presents it via 3-state outputs under system-level OE control. Use Value: Prevents metastability and bus contention; power-on 3-state behavior avoids spurious outputs during cold start or brown-out recovery. |
Use Scenario: Managing shared data paths among multiple masters (e.g., DMA controller, CPU, co-processor) in retrocomputing or test equipment backplanes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bus transceiver/register enabling time-multiplexed access with deterministic enable/disable timing (tPZH = 1.0–5.0 ns). Use Value: Fast OE-controlled output disable (tPLZ ≤ 4.0 ns) minimizes bus turnaround latency; flow-through pinout eases layout in dense 20-pin DIP footprints. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type 3-state register applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74ABT374AN | Same function but different pinout: inputs and outputs on same side (non-flow-through); lacks OE pin symmetry for microprocessor interface | Less optimal for direct CPU bus connection due to non-opposite I/O placement; requires longer trace routing | Choose only if board layout already accommodates same-side I/O or when replacing 74ABT374A-based designs |
| SN74F574N | F-series TTL: higher ICC (40 mA typical), slower speed (tPLH = 8 ns), no power-on 3-state, lower ESD rating (HBM = 2000 V not guaranteed) | Suitable for cost-sensitive, lower-speed legacy systems where BiCMOS advantages are unnecessary | Select when strict 5 V TTL compatibility is required and timing budgets exceed 8 ns; avoid for hot-swap or high-noise environments |
Compared with SN74ABT574ANS, 74ABT374AN offers identical logic but inferior physical interface efficiency, while SN74F574N trades performance and robustness for broader TTL ecosystem compatibility-making SN74ABT574ANS the optimal choice for new designs demanding speed, drive strength, and bus safety.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for SN74ABT574ANS?
The SN74ABT574ANS is rated for operation from −40 °C to +85 °C ambient temperature, as confirmed in Table 5 of the NXP datasheet. This industrial-grade range supports deployment in factory automation, outdoor instrumentation, and embedded computing environments without derating.
Does SN74ABT574ANS support hot-plug or live insertion?
Yes, SN74ABT574ANS supports live insertion and extraction, enabled by its input clamping voltage (VIK = −1.2 V), high ESD tolerance (HBM > 2000 V), and power-on 3-state behavior. These features prevent damage and bus contention during hot-swap operations in modular backplane systems.
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by SN74ABT574ANS?
SN74ABT574ANS supports a maximum clock frequency of 125 MHz over the full −40 °C to +85 °C temperature range, as specified in Table 7 of the NXP datasheet. At 25 °C, fmax reaches 400 MHz, but system-level timing must be validated under worst-case conditions.
How does the output enable (OE) pin behave during power-up?
During power-up, SN74ABT574ANS exhibits power-on 3-state behavior: all Q outputs remain in high-impedance regardless of OE state until VCC stabilizes. This prevents bus conflicts and ensures deterministic initialization without external reset circuitry.
Is SN74ABT574ANS pin-compatible with other 74-series octal registers?
SN74ABT574ANS is pin-compatible with the 74ABT574A family variants (e.g., 74ABT574AD, 74ABT574APW) in the DIP20 package, but not with 74LS574 or 74HC574 due to differing pinouts, drive strengths, and electrical characteristics. Always verify package-specific pin mapping before substitution.
