Overview

Description

The 74HCT74D is a dual D-type flip-flop integrated circuit from the 74HCT series. It is designed for use in digital systems requiring high-speed data storage and transfer. Each flip-flop in the chip has independent data (D), clock (CP), set (SD), and reset (RD) inputs, as well as complementary outputs (Q and Q'). The device operates with a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V, making it compatible with TTL logic levels. The 74HCT74D is known for its fast switching times and low power consumption, making it suitable for various applications in computers, communication equipment, and other electronic systems. Its edge-triggered design ensures that the data is transferred on the rising edge of the clock pulse, providing precise control in synchronous circuits. The chip is typically packaged in small-outline packages (SOP), making it suitable for compact circuit designs. Overall, the 74HCT74D is a versatile component for digital flip-flop applications, offering reliability and efficiency.

Pinout

The 74HCT74D is a dual D-type flip-flop IC with a pin count of 14. Each flip-flop within the IC has the following basic functions:
1. Data Input (D): The data on this pin is sampled on the rising edge of the clock.
2. Clock Input (CP): Triggers the flip-flop; on a rising edge, the data from the D input is transferred to the Q outputs.
3. Set (SD)\*: An asynchronous active-low input which, when low, forces the Q output to high, regardless of the clock or data inputs.
4. Reset (RD)\*: An asynchronous active-low input which, when low, forces the Q output to low, regardless of the clock or data inputs.
5. Q Output: The main output of the flip-flop that reflects the current state.
6. Q\* (not Q) Output: The complementary output, which is the inverse of the Q output.
Pins 1 and 2 are for one flip-flop's SD\* and RD\*, respectively, and similar for the second flip-flop at pins 13 and 12. Pin 14 is Vcc, and pin 7 is GND for power supply.
