Product details
Overview
SN74AC564DBR 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 across 2V–6V VCC, delivers ≤9 ns propagation delay at 5V, and supports rising-edge clock triggering with full parallel data loading. It is used in bidirectional bus drivers and I/O port buffering in industrial control and embedded communication subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74AC564DBR datasheet, SN74AC564DBR pinout, SN74AC564DBR application, or SN74AC564DBR equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, confirmed SSOP-20 package mapping, validated timing and drive specifications, and two technically documented alternative parts for bus-interface flip-flop selection.
Technical Context
The SN74AC564DBR implements eight independent D-type flip-flops sharing a common rising-edge-triggered clock (CLK) and a global active-low output-enable (OE) control. Each Q output is the logical inverse of its corresponding D input on CLK's positive transition.
Its 3-state inverting outputs support direct connection to capacitive or low-impedance buses without external pull-ups or interface logic. OE controls output impedance only - internal flip-flop operation continues regardless of OE state, enabling data retention or update during bus isolation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2 V to 6 V - supports mixed-voltage system interfacing and legacy 5V or modern 3.3V logic domains. |
| Max tpd | 9 ns at VCC = 5 V - enables reliable operation in high-speed digital control loops up to ~85 MHz clock frequency. |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V - sufficient to directly drive standard TTL/CMOS loads and moderate-capacitance buses. |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Inputs accept up to 6 V - allows safe interfacing with higher-voltage signals without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +85 °C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded systems and automation equipment. |
| Logic Family | Advanced CMOS (AC) - delivers CMOS power efficiency with TTL-compatible speed and drive strength. |
| Propagation Delay Skew | ≤1.5 ns (tPLH/tPHL variation across channels) - ensures tight timing alignment for parallel data paths. |
Pinout & Package
SN74AC564DBR is housed in a 20-pin SSOP (Shrink Small Outline Package), DB variant, with 0.65 mm lead pitch, 7.2 mm × 7.8 mm body-plus-lead footprint, and maximum height of 2.0 mm - optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts while maintaining hand-solderability and reflow compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | Active-low output enable | Global control for all eight Q outputs; asserts high-impedance state when high, enabling bus sharing. |
| 2–9 (D1–D8) | Data inputs | Parallel asynchronous inputs latched on CLK rising edge; each drives inverted Q output. |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | Common return path for logic and output current; requires local bypass capacitor placement. |
| 11 (CLK) | Clock input | Rising-edge-triggered synchronous control; all eight flip-flops update simultaneously on CLK↑. |
| 12–19 (Q8–Q1) | Inverting 3-state outputs | Outputs reflect !Dn when OE is low; enter high-Z when OE is high - no bus contention. |
| 20 (VCC) | Positive supply | Single-supply rail supporting 2–6 V; must be decoupled with ≥0.1 µF ceramic capacitor near pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Flow-through pinout | Input pins (D1–D8) on left side, outputs (Q8–Q1) on right side - minimizes trace crossovers and improves signal integrity in dense layouts. |
| Full parallel access | All eight D inputs and Q outputs accessible simultaneously - eliminates serialization overhead in register-file or buffer applications. |
| Bus-compatible 3-state outputs | Outputs drive directly onto shared data/address buses without external resistors or buffers - reduces BOM count and board area. |
| VCC-independent input tolerance | Inputs tolerate up to 6 V regardless of VCC setting - simplifies mixed-voltage interconnect with legacy peripherals or sensors. |
| Low input capacitance | Ci = 4.5 pF at 5 V - reduces loading on upstream drivers and preserves signal edge rates in high-frequency operation. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Modules | Embedded Communication Bus Interface |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ACT564DBR | ACT family: TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2 V min), slightly higher ICC (max 80 µA vs. 40 µA), identical timing and pinout. | Better noise immunity in noisy industrial environments; marginally higher static power draw. | Preferred where legacy TTL-level signaling coexists with CMOS logic; otherwise SN74AC564DBR offers lower quiescent current. |
| 74LVC574APW,118 | LVCMOS family: 1.65–3.6 V VCC range only; non-inverting outputs; 3.3 V optimized; smaller TSSOP-20 (PW) package. | Not suitable for 5 V systems or inverting-bus applications; requires level translation if interfacing with 5 V peripherals. | Select only for 3.3 V-only designs requiring minimal board area; not a drop-in replacement due to voltage and polarity mismatch. |
Compared with SN74ACT564DBR and 74LVC574APW,118, the SN74AC564DBR uniquely balances wide VCC flexibility (2–6 V), inverting 3-state outputs, and low ICC - making it optimal for mixed-voltage industrial registers where bus inversion and power efficiency are jointly critical.

FAQ
What is the logic polarity of SN74AC564DBR outputs?
The SN74AC564DBR features inverting 3-state outputs: each Qn output equals the logical complement of its corresponding Dn input after the rising edge of CLK. This inversion is inherent to the device architecture and cannot be disabled. The SN74AC564DBR maintains this behavior across its full 2V–6V VCC range and operating temperature span.
Does SN74AC564DBR support 3.3 V operation?
Yes, SN74AC564DBR is fully specified for 3.3 V operation (VCC = 3.3 V ± 0.3 V), with guaranteed timing parameters including fclock ≥ 60 MHz, tsu ≤ 3 ns, and tpd ≤ 15.5 ns. Its inputs tolerate up to 6 V, allowing safe interfacing with 5 V signals even when powered from 3.3 V - a key advantage over LVCMOS alternatives.
How is the SN74AC564DBR pinout optimized for PCB layout?
The SN74AC564DBR uses a flow-through architecture: D1–D8 occupy pins 2–9 (left side), GND and CLK are centrally located (pins 10–11), and Q8–Q1 occupy pins 12–19 (right side). This arrangement enables straight-layer signal routing with minimal vias or crossovers - directly supporting compact, high-density industrial control board layouts.
What is the recommended power supply decoupling for SN74AC564DBR?
Texas Instruments specifies a minimum 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed as close as possible to the VCC (pin 20) and GND (pin 10) pins of the SN74AC564DBR. For systems with multiple SN74AC564DBR devices or high switching activity, paralleling a 1 µF capacitor improves broadband noise suppression. The SN74AC564DBR's low ICC (max 40 µA) reduces overall supply current demand but does not relax decoupling requirements.
Can SN74AC564DBR outputs drive a 50-pF bus load at 50 MHz?
Yes - at VCC = 5 V, the SN74AC564DBR guarantees tPLH/tPHL ≤ 11.5 ns and supports fmax = 85 MHz into typical loads. With Cpd = 50 pF and f = 1 MHz, its typical power dissipation capacitance is 50 pF, confirming robust drive capability into 50-pF nets. The SN74AC564DBR's ±24 mA output current ensures clean edges even under such capacitive loading.
