Operation outside the Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent device damage. Absolute maximum ratings do not imply
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those listed under Recommended Operating Conditions.
If briefly operating outside the Recommended Operating Conditions but within the Absolute Maximum Ratings, the device may not
sustain damage, but it may not be fully functional. Operating the device in this manner may affect device reliability, functionality,
performance, and shorten the device lifetime.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The SN74HCS273-Q1 contains 8 positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flops with shared direct active low clear
(CLR) input.
Information at the data (D) inputs meeting the setup time requirements is transferred to the (Q) outputs on the
positive-going edge of the clock (CLK) pulse. Clock triggering occurs at a particular voltage level and is not
related directly to the transition time of the positive-going pulse. When CLK is at either the high or low level or
transitioning from a high level to a low level, the D input has no effect at the output.
Information at the data (Q) outputs can be asychronously cleared with a low level input through the clear (CLR)
pin.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Balanced CMOS Push-Pull Outputs
This device includes balanced CMOS push-pull outputs. The term balanced indicates that the device can sink
and source similar currents. 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 push-pull CMOS outputs should be left disconnected.
8.3.2 CMOS Schmitt-Trigger Inputs
This device includes inputs with the Schmitt-trigger architecture. These inputs are high impedance and are
typically modeled as a resistor in parallel with the input capacitance given in the Electrical Characteristics table
from the input to ground. The worst case resistance is calculated with the maximum input voltage, given in the
Absolute Maximum Ratings table, and the maximum input leakage current, given in the Electrical Characteristics
table, using Ohm's law (R = V ÷ I).

SCLS850C – MARCH 2021 – REVISED JANUARY 2023
The Schmitt-trigger input architecture provides hysteresis as defined by ΔVT in the Electrical Characteristics
table, which makes this device extremely tolerant to slow or noisy inputs. While the inputs can be driven much
slower than standard CMOS inputs, it is still recommended to properly terminate unused inputs. Driving the
inputs with slow transitioning signals will increase dynamic current consumption of the device. For additional
information regarding Schmitt-trigger inputs, please see Understanding Schmitt Triggers.
8.3.3 Clamp Diode Structure
As shown in Figure 8-1, the inputs and outputs to this device have both positive and negative clamping diodes.
CAUTION
Voltages beyond the values specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table can cause damage
to the device. The input and output voltage ratings may be exceeded if the input and output clampcurrent ratings are observed.

Figure 8-2. Simplified Cutaway View of Wettable-Flank QFN Package and Standard QFN Package After
Soldering
Wettable flanks help improve side wetting after soldering, which makes QFN packages easier to inspect with
automatic optical inspection (AOI). As shown in Figure 8-2, a wettable flank can be dimpled or step-cut to
provide additional surface area for solder adhesion which assists in reliably creating a side fillet. See the
mechanical drawing for additional details.

9.2.1 Design Requirements
9.2.1.1 Power Considerations
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 section.
The positive voltage supply must be capable of sourcing current equal to the total current to be sourced
by all outputs of the SN74HCS273-Q1 plus the maximum static supply current, ICC, listed in the Electrical
Characteristics, and any transient current required for switching. The logic device can only source as much
current that is provided by the positive supply source. Be sure to not exceed the maximum total current through
VCC listed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings.
The ground must be capable of sinking current equal to the total current to be sunk by all outputs of the
SN74HCS273-Q1 plus the maximum supply current, ICC, listed in the Electrical Characteristics, and any
transient current required for switching. The logic device can only sink as much current that can be sunk into
its ground connection. Be sure to not exceed the maximum total current through GND listed in the Absolute
Maximum Ratings.
The SN74HCS273-Q1 can drive a load with a total capacitance less than or equal to 50 pF while still meeting
all of the data sheet specifications. Larger capacitive loads can be applied; however, it is not recommended to
exceed 50 pF.

SCLS850C – MARCH 2021 – REVISED JANUARY 2023
The SN74HCS273-Q1 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.
Total power consumption can be calculated using the information provided in CMOS Power Consumption and
Cpd Calculation.
Thermal increase can be calculated using the information provided in Thermal Characteristics of Standard Linear
and Logic (SLL) Packages and Devices.
CAUTION
The maximum junction temperature, TJ(max) listed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings, is an additional
limitation to prevent damage to the device. Do not violate any values listed in the Absolute Maximum
Ratings. These limits are provided to prevent damage to the device.
9.2.1.2 Input Considerations
Input signals must cross Vt-(min) to be considered a logic LOW, and Vt+(max) 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. The unused inputs can be directly terminated if the
input is completely unused, or they can be connected with a pull-up or pull-down resistor if the input will 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 drive current of the controller, leakage current into the SN74HCS273-Q1 (as
specified in the Electrical Characteristics), and the desired input transition rate limits the resistor size. A 10-kΩ
resistor value is often used due to these factors.
The SN74HCS273-Q1 has no input signal transition rate requirements because it has Schmitt-trigger inputs.
Another benefit to having Schmitt-trigger inputs is the ability to reject noise. Noise with a large enough amplitude
can still cause issues. To know how much noise is too much, please refer to the ΔVT(min) in the Electrical
Characteristics. This hysteresis value will provide the peak-to-peak limit.
Unlike what happens with standard CMOS inputs, Schmitt-trigger inputs can be held at any valid value without
causing huge increases in power consumption. The typical additional current caused by holding an input at a
value other than VCC or ground is plotted in the Typical Characteristics.
Refer to the Feature Description section for additional information regarding the inputs for this device.
9.2.1.3 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 outputs that could be in opposite states, even for a very short time period, should never be connected
directly together. This can cause excessive current and damage to the device.
Two channels within the same device with the same input signals can be connected in parallel for additional
output drive strength.
Unused outputs can be left floating. Do not connect outputs directly to VCC or ground.
Refer to the Feature Description section for additional information regarding the outputs for this device.

9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
1. Add a decoupling capacitor from VCC to GND. The capacitor needs to be placed physically close to the
device 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; it will, however, ensure
optimal performance. This can be accomplished by providing short, appropriately sized traces from the
SN74HCS273-Q1 to one or more of the receiving devices.
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 MΩ; much larger than the minimum calculated previously.
4. Thermal issues are rarely a concern for logic gates; the power consumption and thermal increase, however,
can be calculated using the steps provided in the application report, CMOS Power Consumption and Cpd
Calculation.

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 the
following layout example.
11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
When using multiple-input and multiple-channel logic devices, inputs must never 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.
