The MC74HC73ADG is an integrated circuit (IC) component belonging to the MC74HC series. It is a dual negative-edge triggered JK flip-flop designed for digital logic applications. Here is an overview of the key features of the MC74HC73ADG:
1. Function: The MC74HC73ADG contains two independent JK flip-flops with complementary outputs. The flip-flops are negative-edge triggered, meaning their outputs change on the falling edge of the clock signal.
2. High-Speed Operation: This IC component is built using advanced high-speed silicon gate CMOS technology. It ensures fast propagation delays, making it suitable for high-performance applications.
3. Wide Operating Voltage Range: The MC74HC73ADG operates within a wide voltage range of 2V to 6V. This flexibility allows it to be compatible with various power supply levels.
4. High Noise Immunity: The IC provides high noise immunity due to its CMOS construction. It can tolerate substantial voltage fluctuations or noise on the inputs without affecting its performance.
5. Clear Inputs: It features a clear (CLR) input for resetting the flip-flops. When CLR is held high, both flip-flop outputs (Q and Q bar) are forced to logic zero.
6. Direct Set and Reset Inputs: The MC74HC73ADG presents direct set (SD) and reset (RD) inputs for each flip-flop
