SCBS255 - SEPTEMBER 1991 - REVISED NOVEMBER 1993
This octal edge-triggered D-type flip-flop features 3-state outputs designed specifically for driving highly capacitive or relatively low-impedance loads. It is particularly suitable for implementing buffer registers, I/O ports, bidirectional bus drivers, and working registers.
On the positive transition of the clock (CLK) input, the Q outputs will be set to the logic levels that were set up at the data (D) inputs.
A buffered output-enable (
) input can be used to place the eight outputs in either
a normal logic state (high or low logic levels) or a high-impedance
state. In the high-impedance state, the outputs neither load nor
drive the bus lines significantly. The high-impedance state and
increased drive provide the capability to drive bus lines without
need for interface or pullup components.
The output enable (
)
does not affect the internal operations of the flip-flops. Old data
can be retained or new data can be entered while the outputs are in
the high-impedance state.
The outputs, which are designed to source or sink up to 12 mA,
include 33-
series
resistors to reduce overshoot and undershoot.
The SN74BCT2574 is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C.
