The SN74HC174NE4 is an IC (Integrated Circuit) component that belongs to the SN74HC series of high-speed CMOS logic gates. It is a hex D-type flip-flop with an enable signal, manufactured by Texas Instruments. Here is an overview of this specific IC component along with its key features:
1. Functional Description: The SN74HC174NE4 contains six independent D-type flip-flops, each having an active low enable input (EN). It is designed to store data in a synchronous manner, meaning the stored information is latched and updated on the rising edge of the clock signal. The enable input allows the flip-flops to be easily controlled, enabling or disabling their operations.
2. High-Speed Operation: This IC is designed using CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) technology, which provides high-speed operation and low power dissipation. With a propagation delay time of approximately 13 ns, the SN74HC174NE4 facilitates fast data processing in digital circuits.
3. Wide Operating Voltage Range: The SN74HC174NE4 has a wide operating voltage range of 2 V to 6 V. This makes it compatible with various power supply voltages, providing flexibility in different applications. Additionally, it has a wide input voltage range that supports both TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) and CMOS logic levels.
4. Schmitt-Trigger Inputs: The IC component features Schmitt-trigger inputs
