Product details
Overview
SN74LVC374APW from Texas Instruments is an octal edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs, designed for 1.65 V to 3.6 V operation. It features 20-pin TSSOP packaging, 8-bit data latching on CLK rising edge, OE-controlled high-impedance outputs, and 5.5-V-tolerant inputs-enabling mixed-voltage interfacing in bus buffer and I/O port applications.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVC374APW datasheet, SN74LVC374APW pinout, SN74LVC374APW application, or SN74LVC374APW equivalent, key selection criteria include tpd ≤ 7.6 ns at 3.3 V, Ioff support for live insertion, 32-mA output drive capability, and compatibility with 100-MHz clock rates in industrial and embedded systems.
Technical Context
This device implements eight independent D-type flip-flops, each triggered on the positive edge of CLK. Output states are latched synchronously and placed into high-impedance (Z) when OE is high, enabling bidirectional bus control without external pull-ups or interface logic.
It supports mixed-mode signal operation: inputs tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC (1.65–3.6 V), allowing direct interfacing between 5-V legacy logic and 3.3-V system domains. The Ioff feature disables outputs and blocks current backflow during partial power-down, satisfying JEDEC JESD78 latch-up and JESD17 reliability requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65 V to 3.6 V - enables operation across low-power and standard 3.3-V supply rails |
| tpd (CLK→Q) | 7.6 ns max at VCC = 3.3 V, TA = 125°C - supports reliable 100-MHz synchronous data capture |
| IOL / IOH | ±24 mA at VCC = 3.0 V - drives multiple LVC/LVT loads or light capacitive buses without buffers |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | 0 V to 5.5 V - allows direct connection to 5-V microcontrollers or peripherals without level shifters |
| Ioff Current | ±20 μA max at VI/VO = 5.5 V - prevents damaging back-current during hot-swap or partial power-down |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial temperature environments |
| ESD Rating | 2000-V HBM, 1000-V CDM - meets robust handling requirements for automated assembly |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-20 package (4.4 mm × 6.5 mm, 0.65 mm pitch), thermally enhanced for surface-mount PCBs with JEDEC-standard footprint and lead finish (NIPDAU).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | Output Enable input | Active-low control: drives all Q outputs to high-impedance when high; no effect on internal latch state |
| 2–9, 12–19 (1Q–8Q, 1D–8D) | Output / Data input pairs | Eight independent D-flip-flop channels; Q reflects D state after CLK↑; inputs accept 5.5-V signals |
| 10 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for all I/O and internal logic; must be low-impedance and decoupled |
| 11 (CLK) | Clock input | Rising-edge sensitive; latches all eight D inputs simultaneously; accepts fast edges (≤10 ns/V transition rate) |
| 20 (VCC) | Power supply | Single 1.65–3.6-V rail; requires local 0.1-μF bypass capacitor per VCC pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 3-State Outputs | Enables shared-bus architectures by isolating outputs without external tri-state logic or pull resistors |
| Mixed-Voltage Translation | 5.5-V-tolerant inputs allow direct interfacing between 5-V controllers and 3.3-V FPGAs or processors |
| Ioff Protection | Prevents current flow from powered I/O lines into unpowered VCC, supporting safe live insertion in modular systems |
| Low Dynamic Power | Typical Cpd = 54.5 pF per flip-flop at 3.3 V - reduces switching noise and supply current at 10 MHz |
| High-Speed Timing | Max fclock = 100 MHz at VCC = 3.3 V, TA ≤ 85°C - suitable for high-throughput data buffering in real-time interfaces |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Expansion | Embedded Microcontroller Bus Interface |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC574APW | Non-inverting transparent latch (no edge-triggered clock); identical VCC range and pinout | Lacks synchronous edge-triggering; suited for level-sensitive data capture, not clock-synchronized transfer | Select when asynchronous gating or latch-enable timing is required instead of CLK-edge registration |
| 74LVC374PW,118 (Nexperia) | Same functional spec, but rated only to 85°C (not 125°C); slightly higher tpd (8.5 ns max at 3.3 V) | Not qualified for extended industrial temp range; lower ESD rating (1500-V HBM vs TI's 2000-V) | Acceptable for commercial-temp consumer designs where cost sensitivity outweighs thermal margin needs |

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the SN74LVC374APW?
The SN74LVC374APW supports a maximum clock frequency of 100 MHz at VCC = 3.3 V and TA ≤ 85°C, as specified in the Switching Characteristics table. At full industrial temperature (–40°C to 85°C) and VCC = 2.7 V, the guaranteed minimum is 80 MHz. Performance degrades to 55 MHz at VCC = 1.8 V under same conditions, per TI's SCAS296O datasheet.
Does the SN74LVC374APW support 5-V input signals while operating at 3.3-V VCC?
Yes, the SN74LVC374APW explicitly supports 5.5-V-tolerant inputs across its full VCC range (1.65 V to 3.6 V). This allows direct connection of 5-V microcontrollers or peripherals to its D and CLK inputs without external level-shifting circuitry-verified in the Recommended Operating Conditions and Feature Description sections of the datasheet.
How does the Ioff feature function in the SN74LVC374APW?
The Ioff feature in the SN74LVC374APW disables all outputs and blocks current flow when VCC = 0 V, preventing back-driving from live I/O lines into a powered-down system domain. Measured Ioff leakage is ≤ ±20 μA at VI/VO = 5.5 V, enabling safe live insertion and partial-power-down operation in modular electronics-per JEDEC JESD78 compliance.
What is the recommended bypass capacitor for the SN74LVC374APW VCC pin?
Texas Instruments recommends a 0.1-μF ceramic bypass capacitor placed as close as possible to the VCC pin (Pin 20) of the SN74LVC374APW. For improved high-frequency noise suppression, this may be paralleled with a 1-μF capacitor. The layout guideline emphasizes minimizing trace inductance to maintain stable supply during fast 32-mA output transitions.
Is the SN74LVC374APW pin-compatible with other packages in the SN74LVC374A family?
Yes, the SN74LVC374APW (TSSOP-20) shares identical pin numbering and function mapping with all other SN74LVC374A variants-including SOIC (DW), SSOP (DB), TVSOP (DGV), and PDIP (N) packages-as confirmed in the Pin Configuration and Functions section of the datasheet. Signal routing and PCB footprint differ, but logic-level behavior and timing are fully consistent.
