Product details
Overview
SN74AHC16374DL from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs in a 48-pin SSOP (DL) package, operating from 2 V to 5.5 V, supporting 110 MHz max clock frequency at 5 V and featuring ±8 mA output drive, 2 ns hold time, and distributed VCC/GND pins for noise reduction - used in high-speed bus interface and I/O port buffering applications.
For engineers reviewing the SN74AHC16374DL datasheet, SN74AHC16374DL pinout, SN74AHC16374DL application, or SN74AHC16374DL equivalent, key selection considerations include 16-bit synchronous latch behavior, dual 8-bit group enable control via independent OE inputs, 3-state bus-driving capability without external pullups, and compatibility with 2.5 V/3.3 V/5 V mixed-signal systems.
Technical Context
The SN74AHC16374DL implements two independent 8-bit edge-triggered D-type latches sharing no internal logic coupling - each with dedicated CLK and OE inputs - enabling flexible partitioning as either one 16-bit register or two synchronized 8-bit buffers. Its EPIC™ CMOS process ensures low static current (40 µA max ICC) and rail-to-rail output swing.
Timing is strictly positive-edge sensitive on CLK; data setup (3 ns min at 5 V) and hold (2 ns) requirements are met across –40°C to 85°C, while 3-state enable/disable delays (tPZH/tPLZ ≤ 10.5 ns at 5 V, CL = 15 pF) support clean bus turnaround in bidirectional data paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2 V to 5.5 V - supports direct interfacing with 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic families without level shifters. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 110 MHz at VCC = 5 V - enables high-throughput data latching in memory address/data buses and FIFO interfaces. |
| Output Drive | ±8 mA at VCC = 5 V - sufficient to directly drive 50-pF bus loads without external buffers or terminators. |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL = 5.4 ns (typ) at VCC = 5 V - ensures tight timing margins in synchronous digital systems with sub-10 ns cycle budgets. |
| 3-State Enable Delay | tPZH/tPLZ = 5.1 ns (typ) at VCC = 5 V - minimizes bus contention windows during direction switching in bidirectional transceivers. |
| Input Thresholds | VIH = 3.85 V, VIL = 1.65 V at VCC = 5.5 V - provides 0.65 V noise margin against TTL-compatible signals. |
| ESD Rating | >2000 V HBM - meets industrial I/O port robustness requirements without external protection diodes. |
Pinout & Package
SN74AHC16374DL uses a 48-pin Shrink Small-Outline Package (SSOP-DL), 12.4 mm × 6.2 mm body, 0.5 mm pitch, 1.2 mm max height, JEDEC MO-153 compliant, with thermal impedance θJA = 63°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE, 2OE | Independent 3-state output enables | Each controls eight Q outputs separately - allows interleaved bus access or partial register masking without affecting other byte lanes. |
| 1CLK, 2CLK | Positive-edge clock inputs | Edge-triggered sampling of D inputs - enables synchronous capture of parallel data with precise timing alignment per 8-bit group. |
| 1D1–1D8, 2D1–2D8 | Data inputs | Two independent 8-bit parallel input ports - supports dual-channel data acquisition or split-word processing. |
| 1Q1–1Q8, 2Q1–2Q8 | 3-state buffered outputs | High-drive, rail-to-rail outputs capable of driving capacitive buses directly - eliminates need for external bus drivers or pullup resistors. |
| VCC, GND | Distributed power/ground | Multiple VCC and GND pins placed across package - reduces simultaneous switching noise and improves signal integrity in high-speed operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Flow-through pin architecture | Input and output pins arranged on opposite sides - simplifies PCB trace routing and minimizes layer count in dense bus layouts. |
| Dual independent 8-bit groups | Separate CLK and OE per group - enables asymmetric clocking, staggered enable timing, or independent data capture windows. |
| Bus-hold circuitry not included | No internal weak pullups/pulldowns - requires external biasing of unused inputs per TI SCBA004 to prevent floating node oscillation. |
| Latch-up immunity | >250 mA per JESD 17 - withstands transient overcurrent events common in hot-plug or shared-bus environments. |
| Low dynamic power | Cpd = 32 pF at 5 V - reduces switching power consumption in high-frequency register files and pipeline stages. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit D-type flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AHC16373DLR | Latch (transparent) instead of edge-triggered flip-flop; identical pinout and voltage specs. | Suitable for level-sensitive data gating but not for synchronous clock-domain crossing. | Select SN74AHC16373DLR only when transparent latching behavior is required - not a functional replacement for SN74AHC16374DL's edge-triggered operation. |
| SN74LVCH16374ADLR | Lower VCC range (1.65–3.6 V); higher drive (±24 mA); same 48-pin DL package. | Optimized for 3.3 V-only systems with heavier bus loading; not 5 V tolerant. | Choose SN74LVCH16374ADLR for 3.3 V designs needing stronger drive; avoid in mixed-voltage or 5 V systems where SN74AHC16374DL remains compatible. |
Compared with SN74AHC16374DL, SN74AHC16373DLR replaces edge-triggered storage with level-sensitive latching - altering timing behavior fundamentally - while SN74LVCH16374ADLR trades 5 V tolerance for enhanced 3.3 V drive and lower power, requiring voltage domain isolation in legacy 5 V designs.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the SN74AHC16374DL?
The SN74AHC16374DL is characterized for operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This industrial-grade range supports deployment in factory automation, motor drives, and outdoor instrumentation where thermal stability is critical. The device does not support extended military-range operation like the SN54AHC16374 variant.
Does the SN74AHC16374DL include bus-hold circuitry on its inputs?
No, the SN74AHC16374DL does not integrate bus-hold circuitry. All unused inputs must be externally tied to VCC or GND per TI application report SCBA004 to prevent floating nodes, which could cause increased ICC, erratic switching, or ESD susceptibility. This requirement applies to both D and OE inputs when not actively driven.
Can the SN74AHC16374DL drive a 50-pF load at 100 MHz?
Yes, the SN74AHC16374DL supports fmax = 75 MHz at CL = 50 pF and VCC = 5 V, as specified in the switching characteristics table. While 100 MHz exceeds this limit, operation at that frequency would require reducing load capacitance to ≤15 pF (where fmax = 110 MHz) or lowering VCC to optimize speed-power tradeoffs.
How are the two 8-bit sections of the SN74AHC16374DL electrically isolated?
The SN74AHC16374DL contains two fully independent 8-bit sections: Section 1 (pins 1D1–1Q8, 1CLK, 1OE) and Section 2 (pins 2D1–2Q8, 2CLK, 2OE). They share only VCC and GND rails - no internal signal coupling exists. This allows asynchronous clocking, separate enable timing, and independent data capture without crosstalk or timing interference.
Is the SN74AHC16374DL pin-compatible with other Widebus™ 16-bit flip-flops in DL package?
Yes, the SN74AHC16374DL shares identical 48-pin DL package dimensions and pin mapping with SN74AHC16373DLR (latch) and SN74AHC16244DLR (buffer), enabling drop-in substitution where function permits. However, clocking behavior (edge vs. level), output enable polarity, and internal logic differ - electrical and timing validation is required before replacement.
