Product details
Overview
SN74ALVCH16823DL from Texas Instruments is an 18-bit bus-interface D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs, designed for 1.65-V to 3.6-V VCC operation. It functions as two independent 9-bit registers or one 18-bit register, features bus-hold on all data inputs, and supports clock-enable and asynchronous clear for precise timing control in high-density digital systems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74ALVCH16823DL datasheet, SN74ALVCH16823DL pinout, SN74ALVCH16823DL application, or SN74ALVCH16823DL equivalent, this device is critical for synchronous data latching in memory interfaces, I/O expansion, and bidirectional bus buffering where low-voltage compatibility, high drive strength, and bus-hold immunity are required.
Technical Context
The SN74ALVCH16823DL implements dual 9-bit positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flops with independent clock-enable (CLKEN), clear (CLR), and output-enable (OE) controls per section. Its EPIC™ submicron CMOS process enables fast propagation delays (tpd ≤ 4.5 ns at VCC = 3.3 V) and robust noise immunity across –40°C to 85°C.
Each section supports 3-state outputs with ±24 mA drive capability at 3 V, bus-hold circuitry eliminating external pullup/pulldown resistors, and independent OE control that isolates outputs without affecting internal latch state-enabling hot-swap and dynamic bus arbitration.
Key Specifications

| Max Clock Frequency | 150 MHz - Supports high-speed synchronous data capture in memory buffers and interface registers. |
| tpd (Propagation Delay) | ≤ 4.5 ns at VCC = 3.3 V - Ensures tight timing margins in high-frequency bus applications. |
| IOL/IOH | ±24 mA at VCC = 3 V - Drives heavily loaded or capacitive buses without external buffers. |
| Bus-Hold Current | ±75 µA at VCC = 3 V - Maintains valid logic levels on floating inputs, removing need for external biasing. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - Qualified for industrial-grade embedded and communications equipment. |
| Package | 56-pin SSOP (DL) - Surface-mount package with 0.65 mm pitch, compatible with standard reflow profiles (MSL Level-1). |
Pinout & Package
SN74ALVCH16823DL uses a 56-pin Shrink Small-Outline Package (SSOP-DL), 13.9 mm × 7.5 mm footprint, 1.2 mm max height, JEDEC MO-194 compliant. Pin 1 located at top-left corner with index area marking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1CLR, 2CLR | Asynchronous Clear Input | Active-low reset forcing Q outputs low regardless of clock; enables system-level initialization. |
| 1OE, 2OE | Output Enable Input | Active-low control placing respective 9-bit output group into high-impedance state; no effect on internal latch state. |
| 1CLKEN, 2CLKEN | Clock Enable Input | Active-low gate enabling clock propagation to D-to-Q path; high disables clock, freezing output state. |
| 1CLK, 2CLK | Clock Input | Positive-edge-triggered sampling of D inputs; synchronized with CLKEN and CLR for deterministic timing. |
| 1D1–1D9, 2D1–2D9 | Data Inputs | 9-bit parallel input per section; each includes bus-hold circuitry to retain last valid logic level when floating. |
| 1Q1–1Q9, 2Q1–2Q9 | 3-State Outputs | 9-bit buffered outputs per section; driven high/low or placed in high-Z via OE; support bidirectional bus sharing. |
| VCC, GND | Power Supply | Dual VCC and GND pins per section (pins 7, 22, 35, 50) reduce switching noise and improve power integrity. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 18-bit bus-interface flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ALVCH16823DGGR | TSSOP-56 package (DGG); 2000-unit tape-and-reel vs. DL's 20-unit tube; identical electrical specs and pinout. | Better suited for automated SMT assembly; same thermal impedance (θJA = 81°C/W) but slightly smaller footprint (12.5 mm × 6.1 mm). | Select DGGR for high-volume production requiring pick-and-place compatibility and tighter reel logistics. |
| SN74LVCH16823DL | LV family: lower VCC range (1.65 V–3.3 V); reduced drive (±12 mA at 3 V); higher tpd (≤ 6.5 ns); same pinout and bus-hold. | Optimized for ultra-low-power systems where 3.6-V tolerance and 24-mA drive are unnecessary; lower static current (ICC = 10 µA typical). | Select LVCH16823DL when power budget is constrained and full ALVC drive/stress margin is not required. |
Compared with SN74ALVCH16823DL, the DGGR offers identical functionality in a more automation-friendly package, while the LVCH16823DL trades drive strength and voltage headroom for lower quiescent power-making SN74ALVCH16823DL optimal for mixed-voltage industrial interfaces demanding robustness and timing precision.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the SN74ALVCH16823DL?
The SN74ALVCH16823DL supports a maximum clock frequency of 150 MHz across its full operating temperature and voltage range (–40°C to 85°C, 1.65 V to 3.6 V). This rating is verified under standard test conditions (CL = 30 pF, RL = 500 Ω) and applies to both 9-bit sections independently. At 3.3 V, timing characterization confirms fmax ≥ 250 MHz under optimized load conditions, though 150 MHz is the guaranteed production-tested limit.
Does the SN74ALVCH16823DL require external pullup or pulldown resistors on its data inputs?
No, the SN74ALVCH16823DL does not require external pullup or pulldown resistors on its data inputs because it integrates active bus-hold circuitry on all 18 D-inputs. This feature maintains the last valid logic state when inputs float, with hold currents ranging from ±25 µA to ±75 µA depending on VCC and input voltage-fully eliminating the need for external biasing components.
Can the SN74ALVCH16823DL operate with a 1.8-V supply?
Yes, the SN74ALVCH16823DL is fully specified to operate at 1.8 V (within its 1.65 V–3.6 V VCC range). At 1.8 V, it delivers guaranteed tpd ≤ 5.8 ns, tsu ≥ 1.3 ns, and IOL/IOH ≥ ±4 mA, making it suitable for low-voltage microcontroller and FPGA I/O interfaces where power efficiency and signal integrity are critical.
How does the output-enable (OE) function interact with the internal flip-flop state in the SN74ALVCH16823DL?
The OE input in the SN74ALVCH16823DL is purely output-directed and has no effect on internal latch operation. When OE is asserted (low), the corresponding 9-bit output group enters high-impedance mode while the internal Q-state remains unchanged-allowing new data to be clocked into D inputs or retained indefinitely without affecting bus contention. This enables safe hot-swap and dynamic bus arbitration.
What is the thermal performance of the SN74ALVCH16823DL in its SSOP (DL) package?
The SN74ALVCH16823DL in the SSOP-DL package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 74°C/W, measured under standard JEDEC conditions (1s2 copper pad, no airflow). This value supports continuous operation at full drive (±24 mA per output) up to +85°C ambient when mounted on a 2-layer PCB with adequate copper pour-verified per TI's SCES038F datasheet revision April 2005.
