SN74LVC74AD datasheet by Texas Instruments

SN74LVC74AD Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum clock frequency that the SN74LVC74AD can handle?
  The maximum clock frequency of the SN74LVC74AD is 100 MHz.
• How do I ensure that the flip-flop is properly reset during power-up?
  To ensure proper reset, connect the CLR* pin to a power-on reset circuit or a pull-up resistor to VCC, and add a capacitor to ground to filter out any noise.
• What is the recommended operating voltage range for the SN74LVC74AD?
  The recommended operating voltage range for the SN74LVC74AD is 1.65 V to 3.6 V.
• Can I use the SN74LVC74AD in a 5V system?
  No, the SN74LVC74AD is not recommended for use in 5V systems. It is designed for low-voltage applications (1.65 V to 3.6 V).
• How do I minimize power consumption in my design using the SN74LVC74AD?
  To minimize power consumption, use a low-frequency clock, minimize the number of transitions on the clock and data inputs, and consider using a lower supply voltage (e.g., 1.8 V) if possible.
