The SN74LVC374PWLE is an IC (integrated circuit) component developed by Texas Instruments. It belongs to the LVC (Low-Voltage CMOS) family of devices, which are designed to operate at low voltages while maintaining high-speed performance. The SN74LVC374PWLE is a D-type flip-flop with 3-state outputs, offering various useful features for digital circuit applications.
One of the key features of the SN74LVC374PWLE is its wide operating voltage range, from 1.65V to 5.5V. This makes it compatible with both low-voltage and standard-voltage systems, allowing for versatile integration in different electronic designs.
This IC component consists of eight flip-flops with independent D-type inputs and 3-state outputs. Each flip-flop can store a single bit of information. The device is edge-triggered, meaning that it captures and stores the input data on the rising edge of the clock signal.
The 3-state outputs of the SN74LVC374PWLE provide an additional advantage. When the output-enable (OE) input is set to high, the outputs are put in a high-impedance state, allowing multiple devices to share a common bus without causing conflicts or excessive power consumption.
Another notable feature of this IC component is its high-speed operation. It offers a propagation delay of only 3.3 ns, making it suitable for applications that require quick response times
