Product Description
The SN74LS76 is a dual J-K flip-flop integrated circuit (IC) from Texas Instruments, designed for use in digital systems where binary data storage, timing, and control are needed. It belongs to the LS (Low Power Schottky) family, which offers improved performance with reduced power consumption compared to standard TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) ICs.
Key Features:
- Dual J-K Flip-Flops: The IC contains two independent J-K flip-flops, ideal for handling sequential data and control operations.
- Positive Edge-Triggered: The flip-flops change states on the rising edge of the clock signal, which is useful for synchronized operations.
- Master-Slave Configuration: Each flip-flop uses a master-slave configuration where the master latch stores the input data during the clock pulse and the slave latch holds the output.
- Asynchronous Reset and Set: Each flip-flop has individual asynchronous reset and set inputs, allowing for independent control of the outputs.
- Low Power Consumption: As part of the LS series, it has low power usage, providing energy-efficient operation.
- TTL Compatible: Fully compatible with TTL logic systems and operates at a standard 5V supply voltage.
Applications:
- Data Storage: Used in shift registers, counters, and memory systems for storing and manipulating binary data.
- Control Systems: Commonly used in control and sequencing circuits where precise timing and state management are required.
- Timing Circuits: Suitable for applications that require edge-triggered operations and synchronized data storage.
Pin Configuration:
- Inputs: J (data input), K (data input), Clock, Reset, and Set for each flip-flop.
- Outputs: Q (output) and Q' (inverted output) for each flip-flop.
This IC is ideal for applications requiring two J-K flip-flops in a single package, offering reliable performance for a range of digital circuit designs.
