The 74LVC74APW/AUJ is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the 74LVC series of low-voltage CMOS logic devices. This flip-flop IC is commonly used for various applications in digital electronics.
Key Features:
1. Dual D-type flip-flops: The 74LVC74APW/AUJ IC consists of two independent D-type flip-flops, labeled as FF1 and FF2. Each flip-flop has separate data, clock, set, and reset inputs, along with complementary Q and Q outputs.
2. Low-voltage operation: It operates at a low voltage range of 1.65V to 3.6V, making it suitable for battery-powered and low-power applications.
3. High-speed performance: With a typical propagation delay of 4.4 ns, this IC offers fast switching speeds and enhances system performance.
4. Schmitt-trigger inputs: The data (D), set (SD), and reset (RD) inputs feature Schmitt-trigger action, which improves noise immunity and reduces the likelihood of false triggering.
5. Power-down protection: The IC provides protection against power-downs by maintaining a minimum supply voltage of 1.2V, preventing potential latch-up issues
