74VHC112N

Logic - Flip Flops are digital circuits with two stable states: one state is always represented by a logic “1” and the other state is always represented by a logic “0”. These flip flops are used to transfer data from one clock cycle to the next or to store data in memory. Flip flops are basic building blocks of computer memory circuits, registers, counters and timing circuits. They are used to store data, binary information and state of the system. 74VHC112N is a type of flip flop that is used in a variety of applications.

74VHC112N is a 4-input positive edge-triggered flip-flop with open-drain outputs. It is designed to accept standard TTL inputs and produce standard TTL outputs. The open-drain outputs are designed to be wire-ORed to provide a single output from a group of flip-flop outputs used in memory circuits. It has a propagation delay of 17ns, a power dissipation of 8mW and an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

The main application fields for 74VHC112N are digital logic circuits, arithmetic calculation and data storage. It is commonly used for counters, shift registers and memory circuits. Its level of performance combined with its small geometry makes it suitable for low power and high speed applications. Its open-drain output allows it to be wire-ORed with other flip-flops, providing a single output from a group of flip-flop outputs. This makes it ideal for memory circuits such as SRAMs, DRAMs and Flash memories.

The working principle of 74VHC112N is based on positive edge-triggering. When the clock pulse transitions from low to high, the data inputs are sampled and stored in the flip-flop. The output will change state only if the transition has occurred and the enable input is HIGH. If the enable input is not present or is LOW, the output will remain in its previous state. The flip-flop is reset when the reset input is HIGH and the clock is LOW.

Overall, 74VHC112N is a versatile flip-flop suitable for a wide range of applications. It has a low power dissipation, fast propagation delay and low-voltage operation. Its suitable for low-power and high-speed applications, making it an attractive choice for many digital logic and data storage applications.
