Dual Positive-Edge-Triggered D-Type Flip-Flops with
Preset, Clear and Complementary Outputs
DM7474 Dual Positive-Edge-Triggered D-Type Flip-Flops with Pres et, Clear and Complementary Outputs
General Description
This device contains two independent positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flops with complementary outputs. The
information on the D i nput is accepted by the flip-flops on
the positive going edge of the clock pulse. The triggering
occurs at a voltage level and is not directly r elated to the
transition time of the rising ed ge of the clock. The data on
the D input may be changed wh ile the clock is LOW or
HIGH without affecting the outputs as long as the data
setup and hold times are not violated. A LOW logic level on
the preset or clear inputs will set or reset the outputs
regardless of the logic levels of the other inputs.
