Product details
Overview
SN74AUCH16374 from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs, designed for 1.65–1.95 V operation and 3.6-V I/O tolerant signaling. It features dual 8-bit banks, bus-hold on all data inputs, ±8-mA drive at 1.8 V, and 2.8 ns max propagation delay (tpd) at 1.8 V - enabling high-speed, low-voltage register buffering in memory interfaces and bidirectional data buses.
For engineers reviewing the SN74AUCH16374 datasheet, SN74AUCH16374 pinout, SN74AUCH16374 application, or SN74AUCH16374 equivalent, key selection considerations include its VFBGA GQL package (48-pin, 3.6 mm × 4.6 mm), Ioff partial-power-down support, sub-1-V operability, and compatibility with mixed-mode 1.8-V/3.3-V system interconnects.
Technical Context
This device implements two independent 8-bit positive-edge-triggered D flip-flop banks, each with dedicated clock (CLK) and output-enable (OE) controls. All 16 Q outputs are 3-state capable, and internal bus-hold circuitry eliminates external pullup/pulldown resistors on D inputs.
It operates across 0.8–2.7 V VCC but is optimized for 1.65–1.95 V supply; Ioff protection disables outputs during power-down to prevent backflow current, and absolute input/output voltage tolerance extends to ±0.5 V beyond VCC (up to 3.6 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 0.8 V to 2.7 V; fully functional down to sub-1-V logic, with optimal timing at 1.65–1.95 V. |
| tpd (Max) | 2.8 ns at 1.8 V; enables >250 MHz clock operation in high-speed register applications. |
| I/O Voltage Tolerance | 3.6 V; supports mixed-mode interfacing between 1.8-V logic and 3.3-V peripherals without level shifters. |
| Output Drive | ±8 mA at 1.8 V; sufficient to directly drive standard CMOS loads and short PCB traces. |
| Bus-Hold Current | IBHL up to 20 µA at 1.65 V; maintains valid logic state on floating inputs without external biasing. |
| Ioff Leakage | ±10 µA max at 2.7 V; prevents damaging current flow during partial power-down sequences. |
| ICC (Max) | 20 µA; ultra-low static power ideal for battery-sensitive and always-on subsystems. |
Pinout & Package
VFBGA package: GQL (48-pin, 3.6 mm × 4.6 mm, 0.5-mm pitch, 1.0-mm max height). Pin 1 located at corner A1; no internal connections at B1, C1, D1, E1, F1, G1, H1, J1, K1, A6, B6, C6, D6, E6, F6, G6, H6, J6, K6.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1OE, 2OE | Output enable (active low) | Independent control of each 8-bit bank's 3-state output drivers; OE high = high-impedance mode. |
| 1CLK, 2CLK | Clock input (positive edge) | Edge-triggered sampling of D inputs; asynchronous to OE - data latched regardless of output state. |
| 1D1–1D8, 2D1–2D8 | Data inputs | All inputs feature integrated bus-hold; no external resistors needed for unused or undriven lines. |
| 1Q1–1Q8, 2Q1–2Q8 | Registered outputs | 3-state outputs retain last latched value when OE is high; drive capability matches input voltage range. |
| VCC, GND | Power terminals | Four VCC and six GND pins distributed across package for low-noise, low-inductance supply routing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 1.65–1.95 V optimized operation | Guaranteed timing performance and signal integrity within narrow core voltage window for modern low-power SoC interfaces. |
| 3.6-V I/O tolerance | Enables direct connection to legacy 3.3-V buses without level translators or additional power domains. |
| Integrated bus-hold | Eliminates need for 10-kΩ external pullups/pulldowns on data lines - reduces BOM count and layout area. |
| Ioff partial-power-down support | Prevents back-current flow when VCC = 0 V while other rails remain active - critical for hot-swap and power-gating systems. |
| Sub-1-V operability | Functional at 0.8 V VCC, supporting emerging ultra-low-voltage design requirements and brownout resilience. |
Applications
| Memory Interface Buffering | Low-Voltage I/O Expansion |
|---|---|

Use Scenario: Isolating and registering address/data signals between a 1.8-V microcontroller and parallel SRAM or Flash memory. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as a synchronous, edge-triggered latch to align data transfers with clock edges and decouple timing skew between controller and memory. Use Value: Enables reliable 250-MHz burst reads/writes using only 1.8-V supply, with bus-hold preventing glitches on unasserted address lines. |
Use Scenario: Expanding GPIO count on an energy-harvesting sensor node operating from a 1.2-V battery source. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides 16-bit bidirectional, 3-state I/O port with independent OE control per bank for peripheral multiplexing. Use Value: Operates down to 0.8 V VCC while maintaining 2.8-ns tpd - preserves real-time responsiveness even under deep discharge conditions. |
| Bidirectional Bus Transceiver | Mixed-Voltage System Interconnect |
|
Use Scenario: Implementing a shared data bus between two 1.8-V ASICs with staggered enable timing. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Functions as dual 8-bit transparent latch with independent OE control, allowing half-bus direction switching without contention. Use Value: ±8-mA drive strength and 3.6-V I/O tolerance permit direct connection to 3.3-V test equipment during bring-up without isolation components. |
Use Scenario: Interfacing a 1.8-V FPGA I/O bank to a 3.3-V ADC and DAC in a mixed-signal acquisition module. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Serves as voltage-tolerant, registered interface buffer - latching ADC output before FPGA sampling and holding DAC input until update. Use Value: Eliminates discrete level shifters and reduces timing uncertainty via deterministic 2.8-ns propagation path across full 1.8–3.3-V voltage domain boundary. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC16374DGVR | Wider VCC range (1.65–3.6 V); higher ICC (max 40 µA); no bus-hold; 3.3-V optimized. | Suitable for 3.3-V dominant systems where 1.8-V operation is secondary; lacks sub-1-V capability. | Choose when interfacing primarily with 3.3-V logic and lower static power is not required. |
| SN74AVC16374GQLR | Same GQL package; supports 1.2–3.6 V; higher speed (tpd = 2.1 ns @ 1.5 V); no Ioff. | Better for high-frequency (>300 MHz) applications but lacks partial-power-down protection. | Prefer when maximum speed is critical and system power sequencing excludes partial-power-down scenarios. |
Compared with SN74LVC16374DGVR and SN74AVC16374GQLR, the SN74AUCH16374 uniquely combines sub-1-V operation, Ioff, and bus-hold - making it the only option among the three qualified for ultra-low-voltage, hot-pluggable, and resistorless-input designs.

FAQ
What is the minimum operating voltage for the SN74AUCH16374?
The SN74AUCH16374 is fully specified down to 0.8 V VCC and remains functional in sub-1-V operation. Its timing parameters (e.g., tpd, tsu) are guaranteed across 0.8–2.7 V, with optimal performance in the 1.65–1.95 V range. This makes the SN74AUCH16374 suitable for ultra-low-power applications where supply voltage may dip during battery discharge or dynamic voltage scaling.
Does the SN74AUCH16374 require external pullup or pulldown resistors on its data inputs?
No. The SN74AUCH16374 integrates bus-hold circuitry on all 16 data inputs (1D1–1D8, 2D1–2D8), which actively maintains the last-valid logic state when inputs float. TI explicitly advises against using external pullup/pulldown resistors with this feature, as they may interfere with bus-hold current thresholds and degrade noise immunity.
Can the SN74AUCH16374 be used in mixed-voltage systems with both 1.8-V and 3.3-V components?
Yes. The SN74AUCH16374 supports 3.6-V I/O tolerance while operating from a 1.65–1.95 V VCC supply. This allows its inputs and outputs to safely interface with 3.3-V logic levels without level shifters - provided VI and VO remain within –0.5 V to 3.6 V and output current limits (±20 mA) are observed.
What is the purpose of the Ioff feature in the SN74AUCH16374?
The Ioff feature disables all outputs when VCC = 0 V, limiting off-state leakage current to ±10 µA max. This prevents damaging back-current flow from live I/O lines into a powered-down device - a critical requirement for hot-swap, partial-power-down, and multi-rail power sequencing in industrial and telecom systems using the SN74AUCH16374.
How does the SN74AUCH16374 handle clock and output-enable timing interactions?
In the SN74AUCH16374, the clock (CLK) and output-enable (OE) paths are asynchronous. Latching occurs on the positive CLK edge regardless of OE state; OE only affects output driver activation. Thus, new data can be captured while outputs remain in high-impedance, and previously latched data persists in the register even when OE is asserted - enabling glitch-free bus arbitration and pipelined data staging.
