The MC74HC74ADR2 is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the MC74HC series of high-speed CMOS devices. It is a dual D-type flip-flop that features two independent flip-flops with complementary outputs. This IC is commonly used in digital electronics and sequential logic circuits.
Key Features:
1. Dual D-Type Flip-Flop: The MC74HC74ADR2 consists of two separate D-type flip-flops, which can operate independently or together as a dual flip-flop.
2. High-Speed Operation: It is designed for high-speed applications, offering fast propagation delays and short setup and hold times.
3. CMOS Technology: This IC is based on CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) technology, which ensures low power consumption, high noise immunity, and wide operating voltage range.
4. Complementary Outputs: The flip-flop outputs are complementary, meaning when one output is high, the other is low.
5. Asynchronous Inputs: The MC74HC74ADR2 features asynchronous inputs (preset and clear) that allow for immediate state changes without using the clock pulse.
6. Edge-Triggered Flip-Flops: The flip-flops are edge-triggered, which means the stored data is only affected by a transition at the clock input (positive or negative edge)
