Product details
Overview
SN74LS112ADR from Texas Instruments is a dual J-K negative-edge-triggered flip-flop in 16-pin SOIC package, operating from 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply, with typical propagation delay of 15 ns and maximum clock frequency of 30 MHz. It features complementary Q and Q̅ outputs, individual preset and clear inputs, and is used in synchronous logic control, state machines, and digital counters.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LS112ADR datasheet, SN74LS112ADR pinout, SN74LS112ADR application, or SN74LS112ADR equivalent, key selection criteria include its TTL-compatible input thresholds, guaranteed negative-edge triggering behavior, dual independent flip-flop architecture, and industrial temperature range (0°C to 70°C) with RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish.
Technical Context
The SN74LS112ADR implements two identical, independently controlled J-K flip-flops with asynchronous active-low preset (PR̅) and clear (CLR̅) inputs. Each section operates on the falling edge of the clock (CLK), ensuring deterministic state transitions synchronized to system timing edges.
Its internal structure uses bipolar TTL circuitry with Schottky-clamped transistors to achieve speed-power trade-offs typical of the LS family: fan-out of 20 TTL loads, input clamp diodes for transient protection, and output drive capability of –0.4 mA (high) and 8 mA (low) at VCC = 5 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | LS-TTL - ensures compatibility with legacy 74-series systems and predictable noise margins. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.75 V to 5.25 V - requires stable +5 V rail; no operation outside this window. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 30 MHz - supports medium-speed sequential logic up to 33 ns minimum clock period. |
| Propagation Delay | 15 ns (typical, CLK to Q) - defines worst-case timing budget for critical path analysis. |
| Output Drive | –0.4 mA (VOH), 8 mA (VOL) - sufficient to drive 20 standard TTL inputs directly. |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to 70°C - qualified for commercial-grade embedded and instrumentation applications. |
| Package | SOIC-16 (D) - surface-mount, 150 mil width, tape-and-reel (2500 pcs), MSL Level-1. |
Pinout & Package
SN74LS112ADR is housed in a 16-pin Small Outline Integrated Circuit (SOIC) package (drawing D), 7.5 mm wide, 10.3 mm long, 2.0 mm max height, with 1.27 mm pitch and NiPdAu lead finish. Pin 1 is located at the top-left corner with notch or dot marking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (1PR̅) | Asynchronous Preset (Channel 1) | Active-low: forces Q1 = 1, Q̅1 = 0 regardless of clock or J/K state. |
| 2 (1J) | Data Input J (Channel 1) | Sets next-state logic high when CLK falls and K = 0; enables toggle when J = K = 1. |
| 3 (1CLK) | Clock Input (Channel 1) | Negative-edge triggered: state update occurs only on falling transition. |
| 4 (1K) | Data Input K (Channel 1) | Resets next-state logic low when CLK falls and J = 0; enables toggle when J = K = 1. |
| 5 (1CLR̅) | Asynchronous Clear (Channel 1) | Active-low: forces Q1 = 0, Q̅1 = 1 regardless of clock or J/K state. |
| 6 (1Q̅) | Inverted Output (Channel 1) | Complementary to Q1; provides direct access to inverted state for feedback or decoding. |
| 7 (GND) | Ground Reference | Return path for all internal currents; must be low-impedance and decoupled near device. |
| 8 (2Q̅) | Inverted Output (Channel 2) | Complementary to Q2; electrically isolated from Channel 1 except shared power pins. |
| 9 (2CLR̅) | Asynchronous Clear (Channel 2) | Independent control: clears only Q2/Q̅2 without affecting Channel 1. |
| 10 (2K) | Data Input K (Channel 2) | Functionally identical to Pin 4 but for second flip-flop; no cross-channel coupling. |
| 11 (2CLK) | Clock Input (Channel 2) | Falling-edge sensitive; timing independence allows dual-clock domain use with proper skew management. |
| 12 (2J) | Data Input J (Channel 2) | Independent data path; supports separate J-K configurations per channel. |
| 13 (2PR̅) | Asynchronous Preset (Channel 2) | Independent preset control; avoids global reset in multi-stage pipeline designs. |
| 14 (VCC) | Positive Supply | +5 V nominal; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor between Pins 14 and 7. |
| 15 (1Q) | True Output (Channel 1) | Main state output; drives downstream logic or bus lines within fan-out limits. |
| 16 (2Q) | True Output (Channel 2) | Second independent output; enables compact dual-bit storage without external gating. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent J-K flip-flops | Enables two-bit synchronous state storage in single IC, reducing board space vs discrete solutions. |
| Negative-edge clocking | Eliminates setup/hold timing conflicts with rising-edge controllers; simplifies clock tree design. |
| Asynchronous preset/clear per channel | Allows individual initialization or fault recovery without halting entire logic block. |
| TTL-compatible input thresholds | VIL ≤ 0.8 V and VIH ≥ 2.0 V ensure reliable interfacing with standard 74-series and microcontroller GPIOs. |
| SOIC-16 RoHS-compliant packaging | Supports automated SMT assembly, reflow compatibility (Level-1, 260°C), and traceable sourcing. |
Applications
| Binary Counter Stage | State Machine Register |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Used as a divide-by-2 stage in a cascaded 4-bit binary counter driving LED displays or frequency dividers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as a synchronous toggle element where J = K = 1, clocked by the previous stage's Q output. Use Value: Provides deterministic 50% duty-cycle output with minimal propagation skew between stages due to matched internal delays. | Use Scenario: Stores current state in a 3-state traffic light controller implemented with discrete combinational logic. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Holds encoded state bits (e.g., Red=00, Yellow=01, Green=10) updated synchronously on each system clock edge. Use Value: Enables glitch-free state transitions via edge-triggered update, avoiding race conditions common in latch-based designs. |
| Shift Register Bit Cell | Glitch-Free Toggle Switch Debounce |
Use Scenario: Forms one bit of a 16-bit serial-in/parallel-out shift register for sensor data acquisition. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Captures serial data on falling clock edges and holds value until next shift pulse. Use Value: Dual flip-flop structure allows interleaved loading and shifting without external multiplexing. | Use Scenario: Debounces mechanical push-button inputs in industrial HMI panels where contact bounce exceeds 10 ms. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Configured as a toggle flip-flop (J=K=1) clocked by a clean 100 Hz oscillator derived from system crystal. Use Value: Eliminates false triggers by requiring two consecutive stable samples before output change - inherent to J-K toggle behavior. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual J-K flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LS76AN | Same logic function but includes complementary clock enable (CE) input per section; PDIP-16 only. | Preferred when gated clocking is required to pause state updates without disrupting preset/clear functionality. | Select SN74LS76AN if system-level clock gating is needed; otherwise SN74LS112ADR offers simpler control interface. |
| SN74HC112DR | CMOS version: wider VCC range (2 V–6 V), lower ICC, higher fmax (40 MHz), but non-TTL input thresholds. | Suitable for mixed-voltage systems or battery-powered designs where power efficiency outweighs TTL compatibility needs. | Choose SN74HC112DR for low-power or wide-supply applications; retain SN74LS112ADR for strict 5 V TTL interoperability. |
Compared with SN74LS76AN and SN74HC112DR, the SN74LS112ADR delivers deterministic TTL-level timing and drive strength ideal for legacy 74-series upgrades, while avoiding CMOS input sensitivity and enabling direct drop-in replacement in existing SOIC footprints.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by SN74LS112ADR?
The SN74LS112ADR supports a maximum clock frequency of 30 MHz under standard conditions (VCC = 5 V, TA = 25°C). This corresponds to a minimum clock period of 33 ns, with typical propagation delay from CLK to Q of 15 ns. System-level timing must account for setup/hold times of 20 ns (J/K to CLK) and 5 ns (CLK to Q valid), as specified in the official TI datasheet.
Does SN74LS112ADR support asynchronous reset and set operations?
Yes, SN74LS112ADR provides fully independent asynchronous preset (PR̅) and clear (CLR̅) inputs for each of its two J-K flip-flops. These inputs are active-low and override clock and data signals, forcing Q = 1 or Q = 0 respectively regardless of J/K states or clock edge timing. Both functions operate with guaranteed response time under 15 ns.
Can SN74LS112ADR be used in place of SN74LS112AN?
Yes, SN74LS112ADR can replace SN74LS112AN in most designs, as both share identical logic functionality, DC electrical characteristics, and AC timing parameters. The primary difference is packaging: SN74LS112ADR uses SOIC-16 (surface-mount), while SN74LS112AN uses PDIP-16 (through-hole). PCB layout and assembly process must be adapted accordingly.
What is the recommended bypass capacitor for SN74LS112ADR?
Texas Instruments recommends a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed as close as possible between VCC (Pin 14) and GND (Pin 7) of SN74LS112ADR to suppress high-frequency supply noise. For systems with heavy switching loads, adding a bulk 10 µF tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitor nearby further stabilizes the +5 V rail and prevents voltage droop during simultaneous output transitions.
Is SN74LS112ADR RoHS compliant?
Yes, SN74LS112ADR is RoHS compliant, with NiPdAu (nickel-palladium-gold) lead finish and no lead (Pb)-containing solder. It meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements and carries the "RoHS Yes" designation in TI's official packaging documentation. The device is rated MSL Level-1 with unlimited floor life under standard storage conditions.
