The IC (integrated circuit) component 74AHCT74PW,118 is a dual positive-edge triggered D-type flip-flop. It is a member of the 74AHCT logic family, which is a high-speed CMOS (complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor) series with excellent noise immunity.
Key Features of 74AHCT74PW,118:
1. Dual Flip-Flop: The 74AHCT74PW,118 consists of two independent D-type flip-flops, allowing for the storage and transfer of two separate bits of data.
2. Positive Edge Triggered: The flip-flops are positive-edge triggered, meaning they capture the input and produce the output states only at the rising edge of the clock signal.
3. Wide Voltage Supply Range: The IC operates within a wide voltage supply range, typically between 4.5V to 5.5V. This flexibility makes it compatible with a variety of electronic systems.
4. High-Speed Operation: The 74AHCT logic family is known for its fast operation, and this IC is no exception. It offers high-speed performance ideal for applications requiring quick data processing.
5. Schmitt-Trigger Inputs: The inputs of the flip-flops feature Schmitt-trigger action. This feature ensures noisy or slow input signals do not spark false triggering, improving overall noise immunity.
6. Standard Pin Configuration: The IC follows a standard pin configuration, making it easy to integrate into existing circuits and designs
