DM74ALS74A
Dual D Positive-Edge-Triggered Flip-Flop
with Preset and Clear
General Descript ion
The DM74ALS74A contains two independent positive
edge-triggered flip-flops. Each flip-flop has individual D,
clock, clea r and prese t inputs, and also compl ementary Q
and Q outputs.
Informati on at input D is transf erred to the Q ou tput o n the
positive going edge of the clock pulse. Clock triggering
occurs at a voltage level of the clock pulse and is not
directly related to the transition time of the positive going
pulse. Wh en the clock in put is at either the HIGH or LOW
level, the D input signal has no effect.
Asynchronous preset and clear inputs will set or clear Q
output respectively upon the application of low level signal.
Features
Switching specifications at 50 pF
Switching specifications guaranteed over full tempera-
ture and VCC range
Advanced oxide-isolated, ion-implanted Schottky TTL
process
Functionally and pin-for-pin compatible with Schottky
and LS TTL counterpart
Improved AC performance over LS74 at approximately
half the power
Ordering Code:
Devices also available in Tape and R eel. Speci fy by appending the s uffix let t er “X” to the o rdering c ode.
