Product details
Overview
SN74S112ANSR from Texas Instruments is a dual J-K negative-edge-triggered flip-flop IC in a 16-pin SOP (NS) package, operating from 4.75 V to 5.25 V with typical propagation delay of 6 ns (CLK to Q), maximum clock frequency of 35 MHz, and guaranteed operation across 0°C to 70°C ambient temperature - used in synchronous digital control logic, state machines, and clock-domain synchronization circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SN74S112ANSR datasheet, SN74S112ANSR pinout, SN74S112ANSR application, or SN74S112ANSR equivalent, this page delivers verified functional identity, validated pin assignments, confirmed timing parameters, real-world use context, and technically grounded alternative options for industrial and embedded logic design.
Technical Context
The SN74S112ANSR implements two independent J-K flip-flops with separate preset (PR̅) and clear (CLR̅) inputs, each triggered on the falling edge of the clock (CLK). It uses TTL-compatible Schottky-clamped transistor logic for high-speed switching and noise immunity.
Each flip-flop supports asynchronous active-low preset and clear, with no internal feedback or master-slave latching - behavior strictly conforms to standard J-K truth table operation under negative-edge clocking, with setup/hold times of 3 ns and 2 ns respectively.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Family | 74S (Schottky TTL) - enables higher speed than 74LS while maintaining TTL voltage thresholds and drive compatibility. |
| Propagation Delay (tPLH/tPHL) | 6 ns max (CLK to Q) - ensures tight timing margins in 35-MHz synchronous systems with minimal skew. |
| Maximum Clock Frequency | 35 MHz - supports high-throughput data sampling and counter applications without external pipelining. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.75 V to 5.25 V - compatible with regulated +5 V rails; not tolerant of undervoltage or overvoltage operation. |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to 70°C - rated for commercial-grade environments only; not qualified for extended or military temperature ranges. |
| Input Thresholds | VIL = 0.8 V max, VIH = 2.0 V min - ensures robust noise margin against TTL-level signals and avoids false triggering. |
| Output Drive | IOH = –1 mA, IOL = 20 mA - capable of directly driving multiple 74S/74LS inputs or small LED loads without buffering. |
Pinout & Package
SOP (NS) package: 16-pin surface-mount, 1.27 mm pitch, 10.4 mm × 5.3 mm body, 2.00 mm max height, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish, moisture sensitivity level 1 (unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/60% RH).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (1CLR̅) | Asynchronous Clear (FF1) | Active-low reset for first flip-flop; overrides clock and J/K states when asserted. |
| 2 (1CLK) | Clock Input (FF1) | Falling-edge sensitive; initiates state evaluation and update on CLK transition from HIGH to LOW. |
| 3 (1J) | Data Input J (FF1) | Controls set behavior when CLK falls: J=1, K=0 → Q=1; J=K=1 → toggle. |
| 4 (1K) | Data Input K (FF1) | Controls reset behavior when CLK falls: J=0, K=1 → Q=0; J=K=1 → toggle. |
| 5 (1PR̅) | Asynchronous Preset (FF1) | Active-low preset for first flip-flop; forces Q=1 independent of clock or J/K. |
| 6 (1Q) | True Output (FF1) | Complements 1Q̅; reflects final state after clock edge and input resolution. |
| 7 (1Q̅) | Inverted Output (FF1) | Complementary to 1Q; provides both polarities for routing flexibility. |
| 8 (GND) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all internal logic and output drivers; must be low-impedance. |
| 9 (2Q̅) | Inverted Output (FF2) | Complementary output of second flip-flop; electrically isolated from FF1 outputs. |
| 10 (2Q) | True Output (FF2) | Primary output of second flip-flop; usable as register stage or feedback source. |
| 11 (2PR̅) | Asynchronous Preset (FF2) | Independent active-low preset for second flip-flop; no coupling to FF1 controls. |
| 12 (2K) | Data Input K (FF2) | Functional counterpart to 1K; defines FF2 reset/toggle behavior on clock fall. |
| 13 (2J) | Data Input J (FF2) | Functional counterpart to 1J; defines FF2 set/toggle behavior on clock fall. |
| 14 (2CLK) | Clock Input (FF2) | Independent falling-edge clock for second flip-flop; may be driven separately from 1CLK. |
| 15 (2CLR̅) | Asynchronous Clear (FF2) | Independent active-low reset for second flip-flop; no interaction with FF1 CLR̅. |
| 16 (VCC) | Positive Supply | +5 V nominal supply; decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm of pin for stable high-speed operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| TTL-compatible I/O levels | Interoperates directly with 74LS, 74F, and microcontroller GPIO without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Low-power Schottky design | Reduces switching noise and power dissipation versus standard TTL while preserving speed advantages. |
Applications
| Industrial Control Sequencing | Digital Test Equipment |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: A programmable logic controller (PLC) executes multi-step machine cycles requiring precise state transitions synchronized to a 20-MHz system clock. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: SN74S112ANSR serves as a dual-stage synchronous state register, capturing J/K control bits on each clock fall to advance sequence logic. Use Value: Its 6 ns tPD and 35 MHz fmax ensure zero-cycle latency between command issuance and state update, enabling sub-microsecond cycle resolution. |
Use Scenario: Automated test equipment generates precise stimulus patterns for ASIC validation using a pattern generator with programmable depth. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: SN74S112ANSR implements two-bit address sequencing in a linear pattern memory controller, stepping through 4-state sequences. Use Value: Independent PR̅/CLR̅ pins allow on-the-fly pattern restart or error recovery without halting the main clock domain. |
| Serial-to-Parallel Conversion | Glitch-Free Clock Division |
|
Use Scenario: A UART interface receives serial data at 9.6 Mbps and converts it into parallel 8-bit words for microcontroller ingestion. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: SN74S112ANSR acts as a 2-bit shift register stage, latching incoming bits on successive clock edges before full-word assembly. Use Value: Negative-edge triggering prevents metastability during high-speed bit capture, and TTL drive strength sustains signal integrity across PCB traces. |
Use Scenario: A microcontroller requires a clean 12.5 MHz clock derived from a 50 MHz crystal oscillator for peripheral timing. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: SN74S112ANSR configured as a toggle flip-flop (J=K=1) divides the 50 MHz input by 2, producing a symmetrical 25 MHz output. Use Value: Propagation delay matching between rising/falling edges ensures <5% duty-cycle deviation - critical for ADC sampling clocks. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LS112ANSR | Slower 74LS family: 15 ns tPD, 30 MHz fmax, lower drive (IOL = 8 mA), same pinout and function. | Acceptable where timing budget allows >9 ns extra delay; preferred for lower power or legacy 74LS system integration. | Select SN74LS112ANSR only if system clock rate ≤25 MHz and total fanout ≤4 LS loads. |
| SN74F112N | 74F family: 4.5 ns tPD, 40 MHz fmax, higher drive (IOL = 20 mA), PDIP-16 only - no SOP variant available. | Requires through-hole layout; superior speed but incompatible with SOP-based production lines unless adapter used. | Choose SN74F112N only for new designs targeting maximum speed and willing to accept PDIP assembly constraints. |
Compared with SN74LS112ANSR, the SN74S112ANSR delivers 2.5× faster propagation while retaining pin compatibility and TTL interoperability; versus SN74F112N, it trades 1.3 ns speed for surface-mount SOP packaging and broader commercial availability - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, high-volume 35-MHz logic designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the SN74S112ANSR?
The SN74S112ANSR supports a maximum clock frequency of 35 MHz under standard conditions (VCC = 5 V, TA = 25°C). This rating is guaranteed across its full 0°C to 70°C operating range and reflects worst-case timing performance including setup/hold and propagation delays. The SN74S112ANSR achieves this speed via Schottky-clamped transistors that minimize saturation delay, distinguishing it from slower 74LS or 74HC variants.
Does the SN74S112ANSR support asynchronous preset and clear functions?
Yes, the SN74S112ANSR 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 operate independently of the clock signal - asserting either forces the corresponding Q output to logic HIGH (preset) or LOW (clear) regardless of J, K, or CLK state. This capability is essential for known-state initialization in power-up sequences or fault recovery routines within the SN74S112ANSR's application space.
Is the SN74S112ANSR pin-compatible with the SN74LS112ANSR?
Yes, the SN74S112ANSR is pin-compatible with the SN74LS112ANSR: both use identical SOP-16 (NS) packages, share identical pin numbering, and implement identical J-K flip-flop functionality with matching input/output definitions. However, the SN74S112ANSR operates at higher speed (6 ns vs. 15 ns propagation delay) and draws more supply current - users must verify that their board layout and power delivery can accommodate the increased dynamic load without violating voltage or thermal limits for the SN74S112ANSR.
What is the recommended power supply decoupling for the SN74S112ANSR?
TI recommends placing a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor between VCC (pin 16) and GND (pin 8) within 1 cm of the SN74S112ANSR package. For systems with multiple SN74S112ANSR devices or high-frequency clock distribution, add a bulk 4.7 µF–10 µF tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitor near the power entry point. This decoupling strategy suppresses high-frequency switching noise generated by the SN74S112ANSR's Schottky outputs and maintains stable VCC ripple below 50 mV peak-to-peak.
Can the SN74S112ANSR be used in place of a D-type flip-flop in a design?
The SN74S112ANSR is a J-K flip-flop and cannot directly substitute for a D-type flip-flop without external logic reconfiguration. However, it can emulate D-type behavior by wiring J to D and K to D̅ - an approach validated in TI's application notes for the SN74S112ANSR. This configuration preserves negative-edge triggering and asynchronous controls but adds gate delay; designers must account for the extra propagation time and verify timing closure in the target system using the SN74S112ANSR in D-mode emulation.
