Stresses beyond those listed under absolute maximum ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under recommended operating
conditions is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
The negative input voltage rating may be exceeded if the input clamp current rating is observed.
Long-term high-temperature storage and extended use at maximum recommended operating conditions or both may result in a
reduction of overall device life. See http://www.ti.com/ep_quality for additional information on enhanced plastic packaging.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
These 8-bit flip-flops feature 3-state outputs designed specifically for driving highly capacitive or relatively lowimpedance loads. They are particularly suitable for implementing buffer registers, I/O ports, bidirectional bus
drivers, and working registers.
The eight flip-flops of the SNx4BCT374 devices are edge-triggered D-type flip-flops. On the positive transition of
the clock (CLK) input, the Q outputs are set to the logic levels that were set up at the data (D) inputs.
A buffered output-enable (OE) input can be used to place the eight outputs in either a normal logic state (high or
low) 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 the increased drive provide the capability to drive bus lines without
need for interface or pullup components. The output-enable (OE) input does not affect internal operations of the
flip-flop. Old data can be retained or new data can be entered while the outputs are in the high-impedance state.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Bipolar Push-Pull Outputs
This device includes bipolar push-pull outputs. The drive capability of this device may create fast edges into light
loads, so routing and load conditions should be considered to prevent ringing. Additionally, the outputs of this
device are capable of driving larger currents than the device can sustain without being damaged. It is important
for the output power of the device to be limited to avoid damage due to overcurrent. The electrical and thermal
limits defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings must be followed at all times.
Unused bipolar push-pull outputs should be left disconnected.
8.3.2 Standard CMOS Inputs
This device includes standard CMOS inputs. Standard CMOS inputs are high impedance and are typically
modeled as a resistor in parallel with the input capacitance given in the Electrical Characteristics. The worst case
resistance is calculated with the maximum input voltage, given in the Absolute Maximum Ratings, and the
maximum input leakage current, given in the Electrical Characteristics, using Ohm's law (R = V ÷ I).
Standard CMOS inputs require that input signals transition between valid logic states quickly, as defined by the
input transition time or rate in the Recommended Operating Conditions table. Failing to meet this specification
will result in excessive power consumption and could cause oscillations. More details can be found in
Implications of Slow or Floating CMOS Inputs.
Do not leave standard CMOS inputs floating at any time during operation. Unused inputs must be terminated at
VCC or GND. If a system will not be actively driving an input at all times, a pull-up or pull-down resistor can be
added to provide a valid input voltage during these times. The resistor value will depend on multiple factors,
however a 10-kΩ resistor is recommended and will typically meet all requirements.

9 Application and Implementation
Note
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI
does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for determining
suitability of components for their purposes, as well as validating and testing their design
implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
The SNx4BCT374 contains multiple D-type flip-flops that are operated by the same clock. By connecting multiple
channels together in series, a shift register can be formed. This produces a delay of a specific number of clock
cycles for incoming data. The application schematic shown below gives an example of using three channels of
the SNx4BCT374 to produce a delay of three clock cycles.

Ensure the desired supply voltage is within the range specified in the Recommended Operating Conditions. The
supply voltage sets the device's electrical characteristics as described in the Electrical Characteristics.
The positive voltage supply must be capable of sourcing current equal to the total current to be sourced by all
outputs of the SNx4BCT374 plus the maximum static supply current, ICC, listed in Electrical Characteristics and
any transient current required for switching. The logic device can only source as much current as is provided by
the positive supply source.
The ground must be capable of sinking current equal to the total current to be sunk by all outputs of the
SNx4BCT374 plus the maximum supply current, ICC, listed in Electrical Characteristics, and any transient current
required for switching. The logic device can only sink as much current as can be sunk into its ground connection.
The SNx4BCT374 can drive a load with a total capacitance less than or equal to 50 pF while still meeting all of
the datasheet specifications. Larger capacitive loads can be applied, however it is not recommended to exceed
50 pF.

SN74BCT374
SCBS019D – SEPTEMBER 1988 – REVISED FEBRUARY 2021
The SNx4BCT374 can drive a load with total resistance described by RL ≥ VO / IO, with the output voltage and
current defined in the Electrical Characteristics table with VOH and VOL. When outputting in the high state, the
output voltage in the equation is defined as the difference between the measured output voltage and the supply
voltage at the VCC pin.
Thermal increase can be calculated using the information provided in Thermal Characteristics of Standard Linear
and Logic (SLL) Packages and Devices.
9.2.2.2 Output Considerations
The positive supply voltage is used to produce the output high voltage. Drawing current from the output will
decrease the output voltage as specified by the VOH specification in the Electrical Characteristics. The ground
voltage is used to produce the output low voltage. Sinking current into the output will increase the output voltage
as specified by the VOL specification in the Electrical Characteristics.
Push-pull bipolar outputs should never be connected directly together. This can cause excessive current and
damage to the device.
Unused outputs can be left floating. Do not connect outputs directly to VCC or ground.
Refer to Feature Description section for additional information regarding the outputs for this device.
9.2.2.3 Input Considerations
Input signals must cross VIL(max) to be considered a logic low, and VIH(min) to be considered a logic high. Do not
exceed the maximum input voltage range found in the Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Unused inputs must be terminated to either VCC or ground. These can be directly connected if the input is
completely unused, or they can be connected with a pull-up or pull-down resistor if the input is to be used
sometimes, but not always. A pull-up resistor is used for a default state of high, and a pull-down resistor is used
for a default state of low. The resistor size is limited by drive current of the controller, leakage current into the
SNx4BCT374, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics, and the desired input transition rate. A 10-kΩ
resistor value is often used due to these factors.
The SNx4BCT374 has CMOS inputs and thus requires fast input transitions to operate correctly. Slow input
transitions can cause oscillations, additional power consumption, and reduction in device reliability.
Refer to the Feature Description section for additional information regarding the inputs for this device.
9.2.3 Detailed Design Procedure
1. Add a decoupling capacitor from VCC to GND. The capacitor needs to be placed physically close to the
SNx4BCT374 and electrically close to both the VCC and GND pins. An example layout is shown in the Layout
section.
2. Ensure the capacitive load at the output is ≤ 50 pF. This is not a hard limit, however it will ensure optimal
performance. This can be accomplished by providing short, appropriately sized traces from the SNx4BCT374
to the receiving device(s).
3. Ensure the resistive load at the output is larger than (VCC / IO(max)) Ω. This will ensure that the maximum
output current from the Absolute Maximum Ratings is not violated. Most CMOS inputs have a resistive load
measured in megaohms; much larger than the minimum calculated above.
4. Thermal issues are rarely a concern for logic gates, however the power consumption and thermal increase
can be calculated using the steps provided in the application report, CMOS Power Consumption and Cpd
Calculation.
5. This device includes D-type flip-flop circuits. The output of these circuits is unknown at system startup. Data
must be clocked into each D-type flip-flop to initialize it into a known state.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
The power supply can be any voltage between the minimum and maximum supply voltage rating located in the
Recommended Operating Conditions. Each VCC terminal should have a good bypass capacitor to prevent power
disturbance. A 0.1-μF capacitor is recommended for this device. It is acceptable to parallel multiple bypass caps
to reject different frequencies of noise. The 0.1-μF and 1-μF capacitors are commonly used in parallel. The
bypass capacitor should be installed as close to the power terminal as possible for best results, as shown in
given example layout image.
11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
When using multiple-input and multiple-channel logic devices inputs must not ever be left floating. In many
cases, functions or parts of functions of digital logic devices are unused; for example, when only two inputs of a
triple-input AND gate are used or only 3 of the 4 buffer gates are used. Such unused input pins must not be left
unconnected because the undefined voltages at the outside connections result in undefined operational states.
All unused inputs of digital logic devices must be connected to a logic high or logic low voltage, as defined by the
input voltage specifications, to prevent them from floating. The logic level that must be applied to any particular
unused input depends on the function of the device. Generally, the inputs are tied to GND or VCC, whichever
makes more sense for the logic function or is more convenient.
