Product details
Overview
SN74LV374APW from Texas Instruments is an octal edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs, designed for 2 V to 5.5 V operation. It provides 8-bit data latching synchronized to the rising edge of CLK, features Ioff partial-power-down support, and delivers ≤9.5 ns propagation delay at 5 V - enabling reliable bus buffering in industrial I/O modules and programmable logic controllers.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LV374APW datasheet, SN74LV374APW pinout, SN74LV374APW application, or SN74LV374APW equivalent, this page delivers verified functional identity, TSSOP-20 package mapping, confirmed timing parameters (tpd, tsu, th), 3-state output behavior, and validated alternative options for industrial control and analog input module designs.
Technical Context
The SN74LV374APW implements eight independent D-type latches, each triggered on the positive clock edge, with a shared output-enable (OE) control that places all Q outputs simultaneously into high-impedance state. Its Ioff circuitry prevents backflow current during power sequencing, and mixed-mode voltage operation allows inputs to tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level.
Designed for capacitive bus driving, it uses low-drive CMOS output stages to minimize ringing and ground bounce (VOLP < 0.8 V at 3.3 V), while maintaining full logic-level compatibility across 2 V–5.5 V supply range. The device operates from –40°C to +125°C and meets JESD17 latch-up requirements (>250 mA).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2 V to 5.5 V - supports mixed-voltage system interfacing and single-supply operation across 3.3 V and 5 V domains. |
| tpd (max) | 9.5 ns at VCC = 5 V, CL = 15 pF - enables ≥110 MHz operation in high-speed digital control loops. |
| tsu / th | 3 ns setup / 2 ns hold at 5 V - defines minimum data stability window before and after CLK↑ for reliable capture. |
| Ioff Current | ≤5 µA at 0–5.5 V - ensures safe isolation during partial power-down without external blocking components. |
| Output Drive | ±16 mA per output at 5 V - sufficient for driving 50 pF loads with controlled edge rates to suppress overshoot. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood, rail, and industrial automation environments. |
| VOLP / VOHV | <0.8 V / >2.3 V at 3.3 V - quantifies noise margin preservation during simultaneous switching of multiple outputs. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-20 (PW) package: 6.50 mm × 4.40 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, surface-mount, RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level 1 (260°C peak reflow).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | Output enable input | Active-low control: drives all Q outputs to high-Z when low; no effect on internal latch state. |
| 2–9, 12, 15–19 (Q1–Q8) | Tri-state output terminals | Reflect D-input state on CLK↑ when OE is high; present high-impedance when OE is low. |
| 3–4, 7–8, 13–14, 17–18 (D1–D8) | Data input terminals | Sampled on rising CLK edge; overvoltage tolerant up to 5.5 V independent of VCC. |
| 11 (CLK) | Clock input | Positive-edge-triggered; requires minimum pulse width of 5 ns at 5 V for reliable register update. |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for all I/O and internal logic; must be low-impedance for noise control. |
| 20 (VCC) | Power supply | Supplies core logic and output drivers; decoupling required within 10 mm of pin per layout guidelines. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Mixed-mode voltage operation | Inputs accept 0–5.5 V signals while VCC operates from 2–5.5 V - eliminates level shifters in multi-rail systems. |
| Ioff partial-power-down support | Prevents damaging current flow between powered and unpowered sections - critical for hot-swap and modular backplanes. |
| Low ground bounce (VOLP) | <0.8 V at 3.3 V - maintains signal integrity on non-switching outputs during aggressive bus transitions. |
| 3-state bus interface capability | Enables direct connection to shared data buses without external pull-ups or isolation logic - reduces BOM count. |
| Latch-up immunity | >250 mA per JESD17 - ensures robustness against transient overcurrent events in industrial EMI environments. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC374APW | Lower VCC range (1.65–3.6 V); faster tpd (6.7 ns at 3.3 V); no Ioff support. | Not suitable for 5 V systems or partial-power-down architectures; optimized for low-voltage portable gear. | Select only if operating exclusively at 3.3 V and requiring tighter timing margins without power sequencing constraints. |
| 74ACT374SCX | Higher drive (±24 mA); 5 V-only operation; TTL-compatible inputs; no Ioff or mixed-voltage support. | Requires level translation when interfacing with 3.3 V logic; unsuitable for hot-swap or multi-rail designs. | Choose for legacy 5 V systems where maximum speed and drive strength outweigh power flexibility needs. |
Compared with SN74LV374APW, SN74LVC374APW trades 5 V compatibility and Ioff for lower latency in 3.3 V domains, while 74ACT374SCX sacrifices voltage flexibility and power-down safety for raw speed and drive in fixed 5 V infrastructure.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the SN74LV374APW?
The SN74LV374APW supports up to 110 MHz maximum clock frequency at VCC = 5 V with CL = 15 pF load, as specified in the switching characteristics table. At 3.3 V and same load, fmax is 70 MHz. These values assume proper layout, decoupling, and signal integrity controls - actual system-level frequency may be limited by board parasitics and timing margins.
Does the SN74LV374APW support partial power-down via Ioff?
Yes, the SN74LV374APW includes Ioff circuitry that disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, limiting off-state current to ≤5 µA even with input/output voltages present from 0 to 5.5 V. This feature protects downstream circuitry during power sequencing and enables safe hot-plug operation in modular industrial systems.
Can the SN74LV374APW inputs tolerate 5 V when operating at 3.3 V VCC?
Yes, the SN74LV374APW inputs are overvoltage tolerant up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level - allowing direct interfacing with 5 V logic or sensors while powered from 3.3 V. This eliminates external level-shifting components and simplifies mixed-voltage system design.
What is the purpose of the OE pin on the SN74LV374APW?
The OE (output enable) pin on the SN74LV374APW is an active-low control that places all eight Q outputs simultaneously into high-impedance state when asserted. It does not affect internal latch operation - data continues to be captured on CLK↑ even while outputs are disabled, enabling seamless bus arbitration and multi-master communication.
Is the SN74LV374APW pin-compatible with other TSSOP-20 octal flip-flops?
No - the SN74LV374APW has a specific pinout defined in TI's SCLS408L datasheet (e.g., OE on Pin 1, CLK on Pin 11, GND on Pin 10). While other TSSOP-20 octal D-flip-flops share the same package footprint, pin assignments differ across families (e.g., 74ACT374, 74LVC374), so direct substitution requires PCB layout verification.
