Frequently Asked Questions
What is the function of the CD74AC273EG4?
The CD74AC273EG4 is an octal (8-bit) positive edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with a common active-low asynchronous master reset (MR). On the rising edge of the clock (CP), all 8 D inputs are sampled and transferred to the Q outputs simultaneously. When MR is pulled low, all 8 Q outputs are immediately reset to logic 0 regardless of the clock state, providing system-wide initialization capability.
What supply voltage does the CD74AC273EG4 support?
The CD74AC273EG4 operates from a supply voltage range of 2V to 6V. The AC (Advanced CMOS) family uses CMOS-compatible inputs with thresholds at approximately 50% of VCC, and outputs swing rail-to-rail for maximum noise margins. At 5V operation, typical propagation delay is around 5-7ns, making it significantly faster than older 74HC series devices while consuming lower power than TTL equivalents.
What package does the CD74AC273EG4 use and what does E suffix mean?
The CD74AC273EG4 is packaged in a 20-pin PDIP (Plastic Dual In-line Package) with 0.3-inch row spacing, as indicated by the E suffix. The G4 suffix denotes RoHS-compliant Green packaging. The DIP package allows through-hole mounting and is fully compatible with standard IC sockets and breadboards, making it practical for prototyping and repair of older equipment using legacy DIP board designs.
What is the difference between CD74AC273 and CD74ACT273?
The CD74AC273 uses CMOS-compatible input thresholds referenced to VCC (approximately VCC/2), while the CD74ACT273 uses fixed TTL-compatible thresholds (VIH min 2.0V, VIL max 0.8V at 5V operation). Use the AC version for pure CMOS-to-CMOS interfacing, especially at 3.3V supply, and the ACT version when the flip-flop inputs are driven by TTL outputs or older bipolar logic in 5V systems.
Can the CD74AC273EG4 be used as an 8-bit parallel output register?
Yes, the CD74AC273EG4 is commonly used as an 8-bit parallel output register or port latch. Data presented on the 8 D inputs is captured on each rising clock edge and held stable on the Q outputs until the next clock edge or a master reset event. This makes it useful for microcontroller GPIO expansion, printer port interfaces, LED display drivers, and stepper motor control where multiple outputs need to be updated simultaneously.
