Product details
Overview
SN74LVC74ANS from Texas Instruments is a dual positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with independent preset and clear inputs, operating from 1.65 V to 3.6 V supply voltage, supporting 5.5 V-tolerant inputs, delivering 5.2 ns maximum propagation delay at 3.3 V, and rated for –40°C to 125°C operation - used in clock-domain synchronization and data latching within industrial control logic circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVC74ANS datasheet, SN74LVC74ANS pinout, SN74LVC74ANS application, or SN74LVC74ANS equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, confirmed SOIC-14 package mapping, validated timing and voltage specifications, and real-world implementation context for synchronous logic design in mixed-voltage systems.
Technical Context
The SN74LVC74ANS implements two independent edge-triggered storage elements with asynchronous active-low preset (PRE) and clear (CLR) controls. Each flip-flop transfers data from D to Q on the rising edge of CLK only when both PRE and CLR are high, enabling precise state capture in sequential logic paths.
Its overvoltage-tolerant inputs (up to 5.5 V) allow interfacing with higher-voltage logic families while powered from 1.65–3.6 V supplies, and its low ground bounce (<0.8 V) and undershoot (>2 V) characteristics ensure signal integrity during fast switching in noise-sensitive environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.65 V to 3.6 V - enables direct integration into 1.8 V and 3.3 V digital systems without level shifters. |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - supports down-translation from legacy 5 V logic without external protection circuitry. |
| Max Propagation Delay | 5.2 ns at VCC = 3.3 V - ensures sub-200 MHz clock domain compatibility with tight timing margins. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to 125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial motor drives, and telecom infrastructure use. |
| Output Drive Strength | ±24 mA at VCC = 3 V - sufficient to drive multiple LVC loads or moderate PCB trace capacitance directly. |
| ESD Rating | ±2000 V HBM - meets industrial-grade robustness requirements per JESD22-A114A. |
| Logic Family | LVC (Low-Voltage CMOS) - guarantees rail-to-rail output swing and low static power consumption. |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVC74ANS is supplied in a 14-pin SOIC (D) package measuring 8.65 mm × 6.00 mm (body: 8.65 mm × 3.91 mm), with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint and gull-wing leads compatible with automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1CLK, 2CLK | Positive-edge clock input | Triggers synchronous data transfer on rising transition; threshold defined by VCC/2, not dependent on slew rate. |
| 1D, 2D | Data input | Samples and holds value at CLK↑ if PRE and CLR are inactive; setup time as low as 2.3 ns at 2.5 V. |
| 1PRE, 2PRE | Asynchronous preset input | Active-low: forces Q = HIGH regardless of CLK or D; overrides all synchronous behavior. |
| 1CLR, 2CLR | Asynchronous clear input | Active-low: forces Q = LOW regardless of CLK or D; provides hardware reset capability. |
| 1Q, 2Q | True output | Complementary to Q; fan-out capable of driving ≥10 LVC loads at full speed. |
| 1Q, 2Q | Inverted output | Provides complementary logic state; eliminates need for external inverters in toggle or feedback configurations. |
| VCC | Power supply | Single 1.65–3.6 V rail powers both flip-flops and I/O buffers; bypass capacitor required at pin. |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal logic and output drivers; must be low-impedance for noise control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent D flip-flops | Enables compact implementation of 2-bit registers, frequency dividers, or parallel data latches without inter-chip routing. |
| Asynchronous preset/clear | Allows deterministic initialization or emergency reset independent of clock timing - critical for safety-critical state machines. |
| 5.5 V tolerant inputs | Permits direct connection to 5 V microcontrollers or sensors while operating from 1.8 V supply - reduces BOM count. |
| Low propagation delay (5.2 ns) | Supports reliable operation up to 150 MHz in commercial temperature range - suitable for high-speed interface glue logic. |
| High ESD immunity (2000 V HBM) | Reduces field failure risk during handling and system integration - lowers qualification overhead for industrial deployments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual D-type flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74LVC74AD | Identical electrical specs and pinout; same SOIC-14 package; identical TI part number prefix and suffix - functionally identical variant. | No functional difference; used interchangeably in production; differs only in orderable marking and tape/reel packaging configuration. | Select based on preferred logistics format (tube vs. tape-and-reel); no design change required. |
| SN74AUP1G74DBVR | Single D flip-flop, lower Icc (0.9 µA typical), wider VCC range (0.8–3.6 V), but lacks second channel and PRE/CLR pins. | Suitable only for single-bit latching; cannot replace dual-channel functionality without redesign or doubling component count. | Choose only when space-constrained and dual-channel operation is unnecessary; not a drop-in replacement. |
Compared with SN74LVC74ANS, 74LVC74AD offers identical performance and layout compatibility, while SN74AUP1G74DBVR trades channel count and control flexibility for ultra-low power - making the former ideal for volume manufacturing continuity and the latter for battery-powered single-bit edge detection.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by SN74LVC74ANS?
The SN74LVC74ANS supports up to 150 MHz at VCC = 3.3 V and TA = –40°C to 85°C, and 100 MHz at VCC = 3.3 V across its full –40°C to 125°C operating range. At 2.5 V, maximum frequency drops to 83 MHz. These values are measured under specified load and transition conditions per TI's SCAS287W datasheet.
Does SN74LVC74ANS support 5 V input signals while powered from 1.8 V?
Yes, SN74LVC74ANS accepts input voltages up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level - including when powered from 1.8 V. This overvoltage tolerance enables direct interfacing with 5 V microcontrollers or sensors without external level-shifting circuitry, simplifying mixed-voltage system design.
What is the function of the PRE and CLR pins on SN74LVC74ANS?
PRE (preset) and CLR (clear) are asynchronous active-low control inputs on SN74LVC74ANS. When pulled low, PRE forces Q = HIGH and Q = LOW; CLR forces Q = LOW and Q = HIGH - both actions occur immediately, overriding clock and data inputs. Both must be high for synchronous D-to-Q transfer on CLK↑.
Can SN74LVC74ANS be used as a divide-by-two frequency divider?
Yes, SN74LVC74ANS can implement a divide-by-two counter by connecting Q to D and using the same clock on CLK. On each rising edge, the output toggles - producing a 50% duty-cycle square wave at half the input frequency. This configuration is explicitly validated in TI's application note for SN74LVC74ANS.
Is SN74LVC74ANS pin-compatible with older 74LS74 or 74HC74 devices?
No, SN74LVC74ANS is not pin-compatible with 74LS74 or 74HC74. While all are dual D flip-flops in 14-pin packages, SN74LVC74ANS uses SOIC-14 (D package) pinout matching TI's LVC family, whereas 74LS74 typically uses PDIP-14 and 74HC74 may use SOIC-14 but with different pin assignments for VCC/GND and I/O. Always verify against the specific package drawing.
