Product details
Overview
SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 from Texas Instruments is a single positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop designed for 1.65V to 5.5V operation, delivering 6ns max propagation delay at 3.3V/50pF, ±24mA output drive, and Ioff-enabled partial-power-down protection. It serves as a compact, low-power data latch in voltage-translating digital interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 datasheet, SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 pinout, SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 application, or SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 5-pin SC70 package, 160MHz max clock frequency, 1.3ns min setup time at 3.3V, 0.5ns max hold time, and guaranteed data retention down to 1.5V VCC.
Technical Context
This device implements a synchronous edge-triggered storage element with CMOS-compatible inputs that accept voltages up to 5.5V independent of VCC, enabling level-shifting between 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V domains. Its balanced push-pull outputs support bidirectional drive capability without external biasing.
The Ioff circuitry actively disables all I/O terminals when VCC = 0V, preventing back-drive current and enabling safe hot-insertion in multi-rail systems. Clock triggering occurs at a fixed voltage threshold-not dependent on slew rate-ensuring robust timing across varying input edge rates.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65V to 5.5V - supports mixed-voltage system interfacing and battery-backed operation down to 1.5V for data retention |
| tpd (max) | 6ns at 3.3V/50pF - enables reliable operation in high-speed control loops and sampling circuits up to 160MHz |
| Output Drive | ±24mA at 3.3V - drives standard CMOS loads directly without buffering; sufficient for fanout ≥10 into 50pF |
| Ioff Leakage | ±10µA max - ensures <1µA total system leakage during partial power-down, critical for ultra-low-power sleep modes |
| Input Voltage Range | 0V to 5.5V - allows interfacing with higher-voltage logic without external level shifters or clamping diodes |
| tsu / th (3.3V) | 1.3ns / 0.5ns - tight timing window enables precise synchronization in FPGA-adjacent glue logic and test instrumentation |
| ICC (max) | 10µA - eliminates measurable static power impact in always-on monitoring nodes and sensor interface chains |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 uses the 5-pin SC70 (DCK) package: 2.00mm × 2.10mm footprint, 0.65mm pitch, bottom-side thermal pad optional. This ultra-compact package supports high-density routing in space-constrained portable and telecom modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - D | Data input | CMOS-compatible input accepting 0–5.5V; latched on CLK↑ edge if setup/hold times met |
| 2 - CLK | Clock input | Positive-edge-triggered; voltage-threshold-based triggering decouples timing from input slew rate |
| 3 - GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for all internal logic and output currents; must be low-impedance |
| 4 - Q | Non-inverted output | Push-pull CMOS output sourcing/sinking ±24mA; no external pull-up required |
| 5 - VCC | Power supply | Supplies core logic and I/O; powers Ioff circuitry to disable I/O when VCC = 0V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| NanoFree™ packaging | Dies-as-package construction eliminates bond wires and mold compound, reducing parasitic inductance by >30% vs SOT-23 |
| Ioff partial-power-down | Disables all I/Os at VCC = 0V, blocking back-drive current to prevent damage in hot-swap or multi-supply systems |
| Over-voltage tolerant inputs | Accepts 5.5V signals regardless of VCC (1.65–5.5V), eliminating need for external level translators in mixed-voltage designs |
| Low ICC and Cpd | 10µA max ICC + 27pF typical Cpd at 3.3V enables sub-100µW dynamic power at 1MHz clocking |
| Guaranteed data retention | Maintains Q state during VCC dips to 1.5V - verified for use in brown-out resilient MCU peripheral latching |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar D-type flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1G74DCKRE4 | Dual D-type flip-flop in same SC70-5 package; double the logic density but shares VCC/GND pins | Requires both flip-flop sections; unsuitable when only one latch is needed due to unused gate leakage and layout overhead | Select when dual-latch functionality is required and board area permits identical footprint reuse |
| 74LVC1G80GV,125 | Single D-type flip-flop in SOT886 (5-pin XSON); 1.25mm × 1.0mm size; 10ns tpd at 3.3V | Smaller footprint but slower timing; lacks Ioff and 5.5V input tolerance; rated only to 85°C | Choose for ultra-compact consumer designs where speed and extended temperature are non-critical |
Compared with SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4, SN74LVC1G74DCKRE4 offers functional duplication in identical packaging but increases static power if one section remains idle, while 74LVC1G80GV,125 trades performance and ruggedness for minimal size-making SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 optimal for industrial-grade timing-critical latching.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4?
SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 supports a maximum clock frequency of 160MHz across its full operating temperature range (–40°C to +125°C) and supply voltage range (1.65V to 5.5V), as verified in timing characterization with 30pF and 50pF loads. This rating holds under worst-case process/voltage/temperature corners and is not derated for temperature.
Does SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 support level shifting between different supply voltages?
Yes, SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 supports true bidirectional level shifting: its inputs accept voltages up to 5.5V regardless of VCC (1.65V–5.5V), and its outputs swing rail-to-rail between GND and the applied VCC. This enables direct interfacing between 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V logic domains without external components.
What is the purpose of the Ioff feature in SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4?
The Ioff feature in SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 disables all input and output terminals when VCC = 0V, limiting leakage current to ±10µA. This prevents back-drive current from other powered rails into the unpowered device-critical for hot-swap compliance, partial power-down sequencing, and system-level fault isolation in multi-supply designs.
Can SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 retain its output state during brief power interruptions?
Yes, SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 guarantees data retention down to VCC = 1.5V. When VCC drops to 1.5V (e.g., during brown-out), the Q output maintains its last latched state and resumes normal operation upon VCC recovery-verified in TI's application testing and documented in Figure 8-2 of the datasheet.
What package type is used for SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 and what are its key mechanical attributes?
SN74LVC1G79DCKRE4 uses the SC70-5 (DCK) package: 2.00mm × 2.10mm body size, 0.65mm lead pitch, and 0.95mm max height. It features gull-wing leads compatible with standard reflow profiles (MSL Level-1), and its NanoFree™ construction places the silicon die directly in the package cavity-reducing parasitic inductance versus traditional wire-bonded SOT-23 variants.
