SN74HCT574PW datasheet by Texas Instruments

SN74HCT574PW Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum clock frequency that the SN74HCT574PW can handle?
  The maximum clock frequency of the SN74HCT574PW is 40 MHz.
• How do I ensure that the outputs are in a known state during power-up?
  To ensure that the outputs are in a known state during power-up, connect the OE (output enable) pin to GND or use an external pull-down resistor to ground.
• What is the recommended operating voltage range for the SN74HCT574PW?
  The recommended operating voltage range for the SN74HCT574PW is 4.5V to 5.5V.
• Can I use the SN74HCT574PW in a 3.3V system?
  Yes, the SN74HCT574PW can be used in a 3.3V system, but the output voltage will be limited to 3.3V. Additionally, the input voltage thresholds may not be compatible with 3.3V logic levels.
• How do I handle the asynchronous reset (RST) input?
  The asynchronous reset (RST) input should be tied to VCC through a pull-up resistor to ensure that the device is properly reset during power-up.
