SN74LS73ADR datasheet by Texas Instruments

SN74LS73ADR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum clock frequency that the SN74LS73ADR can handle?
  The maximum clock frequency of the SN74LS73ADR is 35 MHz.
• How do I ensure that the flip-flops are properly initialized during power-up?
  To ensure proper initialization, connect the preset (PRE) and clear (CLR) inputs to a logic high during power-up. This will set the flip-flops to a known state.
• What is the recommended operating voltage range for the SN74LS73ADR?
  The recommended operating voltage range for the SN74LS73ADR is 4.75V to 5.25V.
• Can I use the SN74LS73ADR in a 3.3V system?
  No, the SN74LS73ADR is not designed to operate at 3.3V. It is a 5V device and should only be used in 5V systems.
• How do I handle the asynchronous reset (CLR) input?
  The asynchronous reset (CLR) input should be tied to a logic high during normal operation. When CLR is low, the flip-flops are reset to a logic low state.
