Product details
Overview
SN74AS576DWR from Texas Instruments is an octal D-type edge-triggered flip-flop with 3-state inverting outputs, designed for direct bus driving in TTL-compatible digital systems. It features clock-triggered data capture on CLK rising edge, independent output-enable (OE) control, and operates at 0°C to 70°C with 4.5–5.5 V supply. It is used in bidirectional bus interfaces and I/O port buffering.
For engineers reviewing the SN74AS576DWR datasheet, SN74AS576DWR pinout, SN74AS576DWR application, or SN74AS576DWR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 125 MHz max clock frequency, 32 mA/48 mA IOH/IOL drive strength, 3-state timing (tPZH/tPHZ ≤ 6 ns), bus-structured 20-pin SOIC (DW) package, and compatibility with legacy AS-family logic buses.
Technical Context
This device implements eight independent D-type flip-flops, each with asynchronous 3-state output control via OE. Data is latched on the low-to-high transition of CLK, while OE does not affect internal state retention-allowing new data entry or hold during output disable.
It belongs to the bipolar Advanced Schottky (AS) logic family, delivering higher speed and drive capability than ALS variants: fmax = 125 MHz vs. 30 MHz, tPLH/tPHL ≤ 8 ns vs. ≤14 ns, and IO drive up to ±48 mA. Its bus-structured pinout minimizes trace skew in parallel data paths.
Key Specifications

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OE (Output Enable) | Active-low 3-state control; disables all Q outputs to high-impedance without affecting internal flip-flop state |
| 2–9 | 1D–8D | Data inputs for eight D-type flip-flops; sampled on CLK rising edge |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference for logic and power return |
| 11 | VCC | +5 V supply pin; decoupling capacitor required near this pin for noise immunity |
| 12–19 | 1Q–8Q | Inverting 3-state outputs; Q = NOT(D) when enabled, high-Z when OE = HIGH |
| 20 | CLK | Clock input; rising-edge triggered; requires clean, monotonic transition to avoid metastability |
Key Features

Use Value: Independent OE allows firmware to read configuration without disturbing system bus; robust 5 V tolerance matches legacy strap circuitry. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type 3-state flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ALS576BDWR | ALS family: lower speed (30 MHz), reduced drive (24 mA IO), higher noise margin (VIL = 0.7 V vs. 0.8 V) | Better suited for noise-prone environments with slower buses; less suitable for >50 MHz timing-critical paths | Select SN74ALS576BDWR only if system timing budget permits longer setup/hold and lower fmax. |
| SN74AS576N | Same AS logic, identical electrical specs, but in 20-pin PDIP (N) through-hole package | Used in prototyping, legacy repair, or boards requiring through-hole assembly; incompatible with SOIC reflow processes | Choose SN74AS576N for hand-soldered evaluation or replacement in existing DIP-based designs. |

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the SN74AS576DWR?
The SN74AS576DWR supports a maximum clock frequency of 125 MHz under recommended operating conditions (VCC = 4.5–5.5 V, TA = 0°C to 70°C, CL = 50 pF). This rating is based on characterization data per MIL-STD-883 Class B and reflects the device's capability in high-speed synchronous data capture applications such as bus interfaces and pattern generators. The SN74AS576DWR achieves this performance using bipolar Advanced Schottky technology.
Does the SN74AS576DWR have a synchronous clear (CLR) input?
No, the SN74AS576DWR does not include a synchronous clear (CLR) input. It is functionally identical to the ′AS576 variant described in the SDAS065B datasheet, which lacks CLR. In contrast, the SN74ALS577A includes a dedicated synchronous CLR pin. For designs requiring reset functionality, external logic or a separate reset controller must be used with the SN74AS576DWR.
What is the meaning of "bus-structured pinout" for the SN74AS576DWR?
The bus-structured pinout of the SN74AS576DWR groups data inputs (pins 2–9) and inverted outputs (pins 12–19) contiguously on opposite sides of the 20-pin SOIC package. This arrangement minimizes trace length differences and crosstalk in parallel 8-bit data paths, reducing skew and improving signal integrity in high-speed bus applications. It also simplifies PCB layout for backplane and memory interface designs.
Can the SN74AS576DWR operate with a 3.3 V supply?
No, the SN74AS576DWR is specified only for 4.5 V to 5.5 V operation. Its Advanced Schottky TTL architecture requires full 5 V rail compliance for guaranteed logic thresholds, output voltage levels (VOH ≥ 2.4 V), and drive strength. Using 3.3 V will result in undefined behavior, insufficient noise margin, and failure to meet AC timing specifications. For 3.3 V systems, consider TI's LVC or AUC logic families instead of the SN74AS576DWR.
What is the thermal and moisture sensitivity rating of the SN74AS576DWR package?
The SN74AS576DWR is packaged in a SOIC (DW) carrier with Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 and peak reflow temperature rated at 260°C, per JEDEC J-STD-020. It is RoHS-compliant with NiPdAu lead finish. The device may be stored indefinitely at ambient conditions without baking, and supports standard lead-free reflow profiles. Full MSL and packaging details are documented in TI's Package Option Addendum for SN74AS576DWR.
