Nexperia USA Inc. 74HC73PW,118 Environmental and export classification status description

The Nexperia 74HC73PW,118 is a dual negative-edge-triggered JK flip-flop IC (Integrated Circuit) that is part of the 74HC family of high-speed CMOS logic devices. It features independent J and K inputs for each flip-flop, along with a common clock (CP) input and a common preset (PRESET) and clear (CLEAR) input. The IC operates on a wide voltage range and is capable of high-speed operation. Functions: 1. Dual Negative-Edge-Triggered JK Flip-Flop: The 74HC73PW,118 IC has two JK flip-flops, allowing for two separate data inputs and outputs. 2. Clock Input: The common clock input controls the timing of the flip-flop operation and synchronization. 3. Preset and Clear Inputs: The PRESET and CLEAR inputs allow for asynchronous initialization of the flip-flop states. Applications: 1. Sequential Logic Circuits: Used in digital systems where specific sequences of events need to be controlled, such as in counters and shift registers. 2. Data Synchronization: Ensuring proper synchronization of data in applications like communication systems and data processing. 3. Frequency Division: Utilized in frequency dividers to derive lower frequencies from higher frequency signals. Alternative Components: 1. 74LS73: Low-power Schottky version of the dual JK flip-flop. 2. CD4027: CMOS dual JK flip-flop with set and reset capabilities. 3. SN74F73: Faster flip-flop with preset and clear functions. Embedded Modules: The Nexperia 74HC73PW,118 IC can be integrated into larger systems using various development platforms such as Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or other microcontroller boards. It can also be used in combination with other ICs to create more complex logic and control systems. Related Q&A: 1. What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the Nexperia 74HC73PW,118 IC?
