The CD74HCT175M is an integrated circuit (IC) component belonging to the CD74HC family of high-speed CMOS logic devices. It is a Quad D-Type Flip-Flop with clear, meaning it consists of four individual D flip-flops with an additional synchronous clear input.
1. High-Speed Operation: The CD74HCT175M is designed to operate at high clock frequencies, making it suitable for applications requiring fast data processing and transfer. It has a typical propagation delay of 11 ns, enabling efficient data handling in time-critical scenarios.
2. Schmitt-Trigger Inputs: The CD74HCT175M features Schmitt-trigger inputs that provide hysteresis, ensuring improved noise immunity and signal integrity. This makes the IC more resilient to spurious noise and voltage fluctuations that may impact its performance.
3. Quad D-Type Flip-Flops: With four independent D-type flip-flops, the CD74HCT175M can store and synchronize multiple bits of data simultaneously. Each flip-flop has a data input (D) for receiving input signals, a clock input (CLK) for synchronization, and a clear input (CLR).
4. Synchronous Clear Input: The synchronous clear input (CLR) helps reset the flip-flops to a specific state when triggered. When CLR is active (typically low), all flip-flop outputs are reset to logic 0, allowing for a controlled initialization of the device
