Product details
Overview
SN74AC564DBLE from Texas Instruments is an octal D-type edge-triggered flip-flop with inverting 3-state outputs, designed for bus interface and register applications. It operates from 2V to 6V VCC, delivers ≤9ns propagation delay at 5V, and supports rising-edge clock triggering across all eight channels. It is used in bidirectional bus drivers and I/O port buffering in industrial control and data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74AC564DBLE datasheet, SN74AC564DBLE pinout, SN74AC564DBLE application, or SN74AC564DBLE equivalent, key selection criteria include its 20-pin SSOP (DB) package, inverting 3-state output architecture, 5.5V absolute max input voltage tolerance, and compatibility with mixed-voltage logic systems requiring level-shifting capability.
Technical Context
The SN74AC564DBLE implements eight independent D-type flip-flops sharing a common rising-edge-triggered clock (CLK) and active-low output-enable (OE) control. Each channel latches the inverted logic state of its D input on CLK's positive transition, while OE independently places all Q outputs into high-impedance mode without affecting internal storage.
Its flow-through pinout-D inputs on pins 2–9, Q outputs on pins 12–19, CLK on pin 11, and OE on pin 1-minimizes PCB trace crossing and supports compact bus routing. The device meets AC specifications across −40°C to +85°C, with tPLH/tPHL ≤11.5ns and fMAX = 95MHz at VCC = 5V ±0.5V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2V to 6V - enables direct interfacing with 3.3V and 5V logic domains without level shifters |
| Max Propagation Delay | 9ns at 5V - ensures tight timing margins in high-speed synchronous bus interfaces |
| Output Drive | ±24mA at 5.5V - drives capacitive loads up to 50pF directly, eliminating external buffers |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to VCC + 0.5V - allows safe connection to higher-voltage signals without clamping diodes |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded control and instrumentation |
| 3-State Enable Logic | Active-low OE - simplifies bus arbitration by enabling shared data lines with pull-up/pull-down independence |
| Input Capacitance | 4.5pF - minimizes loading on upstream drivers and preserves signal integrity in fan-out scenarios |
Pinout & Package
SN74AC564DBLE is housed in a 20-pin SSOP (Shrink Small Outline Package), designated DB, with body dimensions of 7.2mm × 5.30mm and overall package size of 7.2mm × 7.8mm. It features a 0.65mm lead pitch and 2.0mm maximum height per JEDEC MO-150.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OE (Pin 1) | Global output enable | Active-low control that places all eight Q outputs in high-impedance state without altering internal flip-flop states |
| D1–D8 (Pins 2–9) | Data inputs | Asynchronous inputs latched on CLK rising edge; each drives corresponding inverted Q output |
| GND (Pin 10) | Power reference | Common return path for all logic and output current; must be low-inductance for noise immunity |
| CLK (Pin 11) | Clock input | Rising-edge-triggered global clock synchronizing all eight flip-flops; accepts 5V-tolerant inputs |
| Q8–Q1 (Pins 12–19) | Inverting outputs | Complementary to D inputs after clock edge; 3-state capable with fast tPZH/tPLZ ≤9.5ns |
| VCC (Pin 20) | Supply rail | Single positive supply supporting 2V–6V operation; requires local 0.1µF bypass capacitor |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Flow-through pinout | Input-to-output signal path alignment minimizes layer transitions and reduces crosstalk in dense PCB layouts |
| Inverting 3-state outputs | Eliminates need for external inverters in bus-driver configurations while enabling bidirectional data flow control |
| Full parallel access | All eight D inputs accept new data simultaneously, supporting synchronized register loading in one clock cycle |
| 5.5V-tolerant inputs | Accepts logic-high signals up to 5.5V regardless of VCC, enabling interoperability with legacy 5V peripherals |
| Low dynamic power | Typical Cpd = 50pF at 1MHz - reduces switching current and heat generation in high-frequency operation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ACT564DBR | TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2V min), slightly higher drive (±24mA @ 5V) but identical pinout and AC specs | Better noise margin in noisy industrial environments; same timing and layout compatibility | Select when interfacing with legacy TTL logic or requiring tighter VIH/VIL margins under EMI stress |
| 74LVC574APW,118 | Non-inverting outputs, 3.3V-only VCC range (1.65–3.6V), lower power (Cpd = 25pF), TSSOP-20 package | Optimized for low-voltage portable systems; lacks 5V tolerance and inverting function | Choose for battery-powered designs where inversion is unnecessary and 3.3V operation suffices |
Compared with SN74ACT564DBR and 74LVC574APW,118, the SN74AC564DBLE uniquely combines 2V–6V operation, inverting 3-state outputs, and 5.5V-tolerant inputs-making it the only option for mixed-voltage bus isolation where polarity inversion and wide supply flexibility are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the SN74AC564DBLE?
The SN74AC564DBLE supports a maximum clock frequency of 95MHz at VCC = 5V ±0.5V and 75MHz at VCC = 3.3V ±0.3V, as specified in Sections 4.5 and 4.6 of the official datasheet. These values reflect guaranteed operation across the full −40°C to +85°C temperature range with proper load conditions (CL = 50pF).
Does the SN74AC564DBLE require external pull-up resistors on the OE pin?
Yes - for reliable high-impedance state behavior during power-up or power-down sequences, the OE pin of the SN74AC564DBLE must be tied to VCC through an external pull-up resistor. The minimum resistance value depends on the current-sinking capability of the controlling driver, as detailed in Section 6.1 of the datasheet.
Can the SN74AC564DBLE interface directly with 5V logic while operating at 3.3V VCC?
Yes - the SN74AC564DBLE accepts input voltages up to VCC + 0.5V, meaning it tolerates 5V signals even when powered at 3.3V. This eliminates level-shifter requirements when connecting to legacy 5V peripherals, as confirmed in Section 4.1 Absolute Maximum Ratings and Section 4.2 Recommended Operating Conditions.
What is the purpose of the flow-through architecture in the SN74AC564DBLE?
The flow-through architecture in the SN74AC564DBLE arranges D inputs (pins 2–9) and Q outputs (pins 12–19) on opposite sides of the 20-pin SSOP package to minimize trace crossing and layer changes on PCBs. This layout reduces parasitic inductance/capacitance, improves signal integrity, and simplifies high-density bus routing - as explicitly described in the "Features" section of the datasheet.
Is the SN74AC564DBLE RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes - the SN74AC564DBLE is RoHS compliant and features a NIPDAU (nickel-palladium-gold) lead finish, as documented in the PACKAGE OPTION ADDENDUM. Its MSL rating is Level-1-260°C-UNLIM, confirming suitability for standard Pb-free reflow processes without moisture sensitivity concerns.
