Product details
Overview
SN74AC564DWG4 from Texas Instruments is an octal D-type edge-triggered flip-flop with inverting 3-state outputs, designed for bus-oriented applications requiring high-speed data latching and bidirectional bus driving. It operates from 2V to 6V VCC, delivers 9ns max propagation delay at 5V, and supports rising-edge clock triggering across all eight channels.
For engineers reviewing the SN74AC564DWG4 datasheet, SN74AC564DWG4 pinout, SN74AC564DWG4 application, or SN74AC564DWG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 20-pin SOIC (DW) package, 3-state inverting output architecture, 85MHz max clock frequency at 5V, and compatibility with mixed-voltage I/O systems up to 6V.
Technical Context
The SN74AC564DWG4 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, OE on pin 1, and power on pins 10 (GND) and 20 (VCC)-minimizes PCB trace crossings and supports compact bus interface layouts. The device meets AC logic performance standards with guaranteed tPLH/tPHL ≤11.5ns and tsu/th ≤2.5ns/2ns at 5V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2V to 6V - enables direct interfacing with 3.3V and 5V logic families without level shifters |
| Max Clock Frequency | 85MHz at 5V - supports high-throughput data buffering in memory interfaces and I/O expanders |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 9ns max at 5V - ensures tight timing margins in synchronous bus architectures |
| Output Drive | ±24mA at 5V - directly drives capacitive bus loads up to 50pF without external buffers |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 6V - allows safe connection to higher-voltage control signals without clamping diodes |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded and automation systems |
| 3-State Enable Polarity | Active-low OE - simplifies bus arbitration logic using standard open-drain or push-pull drivers |
Pinout & Package
SN74AC564DWG4 is housed in a 20-pin SOIC (DW) package measuring 12.80mm × 10.3mm (body: 12.80mm × 7.50mm), with 1.27mm lead pitch and JEDEC MS-013 compliance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | Active-low output enable | Global control for placing all eight Q outputs in high-impedance state; does not affect internal latch state |
| 2–9 (D1–D8) | Data inputs | Asynchronous inputs latched on CLK rising edge; accept voltages up to 6V regardless of VCC |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal circuitry and output current sinks |
| 11 (CLK) | Clock input | Rising-edge-triggered global clock for simultaneous latching of all eight D inputs |
| 12–19 (Q8–Q1) | Inverting 3-state outputs | Outputs drive low when D = high (and OE low); high-impedance when OE = high |
| 20 (VCC) | Positive supply | Single power rail supporting 2V–6V operation; requires local 0.1µF bypass capacitor |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Flow-through pinout | Minimizes PCB trace length and crosstalk by aligning D inputs (left side) and Q outputs (right side) in sequential order |
| Inverting 3-state outputs | Enables direct connection to shared data buses without external inverters or pull-up resistors |
| Wide VCC range (2–6V) | Supports interoperability between 3.3V microcontrollers and 5V peripheral subsystems in mixed-voltage designs |
| High-speed AC performance | 9ns max tpd and 85MHz fmax at 5V meet timing requirements for legacy parallel bus interfaces (e.g., ISA, PC/104) |
| Bus-friendly drive strength | ±24mA output current at 5V ensures reliable signal integrity on 50pF-loaded backplanes and ribbon-cable interconnects |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ACT564DW | ACT family: higher drive (±24mA @ 5V same), but stricter 4.5V–5.5V VCC range; identical pinout and function | Requires stable 5V supply; unsuitable for 3.3V-only or mixed-voltage systems | Select when operating exclusively at 5V and needing marginally faster tpd (8ns typ) |
| 74LVC574APW | LVC family: 1.65V–3.6V VCC range, non-inverting outputs, TSSOP-20 package; 3.3V-optimized | Not pin-compatible; requires PCB redesign; lacks 6V-tolerant inputs | Choose for modern 3.3V-only designs prioritizing low static current (<1µA) and smaller footprint |
Compared with SN74ACT564DW and 74LVC574APW, SN74AC564DWG4 uniquely balances wide voltage operation (2–6V), inverting 3-state outputs, and SOIC-20 compatibility-making it the only option for retrofitting legacy 5V systems with 3.3V controller upgrades without layout changes.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the SN74AC564DWG4?
The SN74AC564DWG4 supports a maximum clock frequency of 85MHz when operated at VCC = 5V ± 0.5V, as specified in Section 4.6 of the official datasheet. At 3.3V, the maximum frequency drops to 60MHz. These values reflect guaranteed performance across the full −40°C to +85°C operating temperature range and are validated using standard load conditions (CL = 50pF).
Does the SN74AC564DWG4 require external pull-up resistors on the OE pin?
Yes-the SN74AC564DWG4 requires a pull-up resistor on the OE pin during power-up and power-down to ensure outputs remain in high-impedance state until firmware initializes control. TI recommends connecting OE to VCC through a resistor sized per the driver's current-sinking capability; typical values range from 4.7kΩ to 10kΩ for standard CMOS drivers.
Is the SN74AC564DWG4 pin-compatible with other members of the '564 family?
Yes-the SN74AC564DWG4 shares identical pinout and function with all SN74AC564 variants (e.g., DB, N, PW packages) and is also pin-compatible with SN74ACT564DW and SN74ALS564N. However, voltage ranges and AC timing differ: ACT requires 4.5–5.5V, ALS is TTL-compatible (4.75–5.25V), while AC supports 2–6V.
What is the meaning of "G4" in the SN74AC564DWG4 part number?
The "G4" suffix in SN74AC564DWG4 denotes TI's green packaging standard: lead-free (Pb-free), RoHS-compliant construction with NiPdAu lead finish and Level-1 moisture sensitivity rating (MSL-1, unlimited floor life at <30°C/60% RH). It does not indicate functional or electrical differences from SN74AC564DW.
Can the SN74AC564DWG4 safely interface with 3.3V microcontrollers while powered from 5V?
Yes-the SN74AC564DWG4 accepts input voltages up to 6V regardless of VCC, so its D and CLK inputs can be driven directly by 3.3V logic levels even when VCC = 5V. Its outputs swing rail-to-rail (0V to 5V), requiring level translation if connected to 3.3V-only receivers; OE may be driven from either voltage domain.
