Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum clock frequency of the CD54ACT174F3A and what logic family does it belong to?

The CD54ACT174F3A operates at a maximum clock frequency of 80 MHz with a 5 V supply and 50 pF load capacitance. It belongs to the ACT (Advanced CMOS TTL-compatible) logic family, which accepts TTL input voltage levels (VIL max 0.8 V, VIH min 2.0 V) while providing CMOS rail-to-rail output swing, enabling direct interfacing between TTL and CMOS subsystems in legacy and mixed-logic designs.

Why is the ceramic DIP package of the CD54ACT174F3A preferred in military and aerospace designs?

The 16-pin ceramic DIP (CDIP) package of the CD54ACT174F3A provides hermetic sealing that protects the die from moisture and contamination, enabling reliable operation from -55°C to +125°C across thousands of thermal cycles. Ceramic packages meet MIL-PRF-38535 qualification requirements for military and aerospace applications where plastic packages would absorb moisture and fail under thermal shock conditions encountered in avionics and satellite electronics.

How many flip-flop bits does the CD54ACT174F3A contain and how are they synchronized?

The CD54ACT174F3A contains 6 D-type flip-flop bits all sharing a common positive-edge-triggered clock input, allowing all 6 bits to be captured simultaneously on each rising clock edge. A shared active-low synchronous clear resets all 6 outputs to logic 0 on the next rising clock edge, enabling deterministic initialization of 6-bit data buses, address registers, or pipeline stages in digital systems clocked up to 80 MHz.

When would you select CD54ACT174F3A over a plastic-package 74ACT174 alternative?

The CD54ACT174F3A is selected over plastic-package 74ACT174 alternatives when the application demands extended temperature operation beyond the commercial 0°C to +70°C range or the industrial -40°C to +85°C range. The ceramic hermetic package supports -55°C to +125°C junction temperature, making it the required choice for military-spec (MIL-STD-810) environments, downhole oil drilling electronics, satellite equipment, and other extreme-temperature applications where plastic package moisture ingress would cause catastrophic field failures.
