The MC74ACT377DWG is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the ACT family of advanced CMOS logic devices. It is an octal D-type flip-flop with eight flip-flops included in a single package. This IC offers efficient and reliable storage and transfer of binary data.
Key features of the MC74ACT377DWG IC component include:
1. Flip-Flop Functionality: The IC consists of eight individual D-type flip-flops organized in a single package. Each flip-flop has a data (D) input, a clock (CP) input, a clear (CLR) input, and an output (Q) pin. The flip-flops are positive-edge triggered.
2. High-Speed Operation: This IC component operates at high speed due to its ACT technology. It offers fast propagation delays and low power consumption, making it suitable for applications where speed and power efficiency are crucial.
3. Buffered Inputs: The D and CLR inputs are buffered, ensuring smooth and reliable operation. The buffers provide improved noise rejection and eliminate the need for external resistor pull-ups or pull-downs.
4. Asynchronous Clear Input: The MC74ACT377DWG includes a clear (CLR) input that allows the flip-flops to be reset asynchronously. When the CLR input is low, all the flip-flops are cleared regardless of the clock and data inputs. This feature is useful during initialization or when clearing the stored data
