The CD54ACT174F3A is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the ACT family of flip-flop devices. It is a hex D-type flip-flop with clear, manufactured by Texas Instruments. Here is an overview and some key features of the CD54ACT174F3A:
1. Functionality: The CD54ACT174F3A consists of six individual D-type flip-flops, each having an independent data (D), clock (CP), and clear (CLR) input. The flip-flops are positive-edge-triggered, meaning they capture data on the rising edge of the clock input signal.
2. Clear Function: The clear input (CLR) is an asynchronous input that allows the user to reset the flip-flop outputs to a known state. When CLR is set to a low logic level (0V), all the flip-flop outputs (Q outputs) are forced to be low.
3. Clock Input: The clock input (CP) is the signal that controls the capturing of data at the D input. On the rising edge of the clock cycle, the value present at the D input is transferred to the corresponding Q output.
4. Output Enable: The CD54ACT174F3A includes a common output enable pin (OE) that, when active (low logic level), allows the Q outputs to be available
