The CD74FCT821AM is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the family of FCT series from Texas Instruments. It is an 8-bit D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs. This IC is designed to provide a high-speed and low-power solution for various digital applications.
Key Features:
1. D-Type Flip-Flop: The CD74FCT821AM consists of eight individual D-type flip-flops, each capable of storing a single bit of data. These flip-flops can store or transfer data based on the clock signal provided.
2. 3-State Outputs: This IC offers 3-state outputs, which means that the outputs can be in either high or low state, or put into a high-impedance state. The high-impedance state allows multiple devices to be connected in parallel without causing any conflicts.
3. High-Speed Operation: The CD74FCT821AM is designed for high-speed operation and provides fast signal propagation. It has a maximum propagation delay of only 6 nanoseconds, which makes it suitable for applications that require quick response times.
4. Low Power Consumption: This IC is designed to consume low power, making it ideal for battery-operated devices or applications where power efficiency is important. It operates at a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V
