74HC74D

Nexperia · Flip Flops · SOIC-14

74HC74D from Nexperia, in a SOIC-14. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 1RD input Flip-flop 1 asynchronous reset-direct input (active LOW). Drives 1Q LOW / 1Q-bar HIGH independent of clock when asserted.
2 1D input Flip-flop 1 data input. Value present at 1D at the LOW-to-HIGH transition of 1CP (meeting setup/hold) is stored and appears at 1Q.
3 1CP input Flip-flop 1 clock input, positive edge-triggered (LOW-to-HIGH). Schmitt-trigger action makes it tolerant of slow clock rise/fall times.
4 1SD input Flip-flop 1 asynchronous set-direct input (active LOW). Drives 1Q HIGH / 1Q-bar LOW independent of clock when asserted.
5 1Q output Flip-flop 1 true output. Reflects the state stored on the previous LOW-to-HIGH transition of 1CP, or is forced by 1SD/1RD.
6 1Q output Flip-flop 1 complement output (1Q-bar). Inverse of 1Q except when both 1SD and 1RD are asserted LOW (both outputs go HIGH per function table).
7 GND power_in Ground reference (0 V) for the device.
8 2Q output Flip-flop 2 complement output (2Q-bar). Inverse of 2Q except when both 2SD and 2RD are LOW.
9 2Q output Flip-flop 2 true output. Reflects the state stored on the previous LOW-to-HIGH transition of 2CP, or is forced by 2SD/2RD.
10 2SD input Flip-flop 2 asynchronous set-direct input (active LOW). Drives 2Q HIGH / 2Q-bar LOW independent of clock when asserted.
11 2CP input Flip-flop 2 clock input, positive edge-triggered (LOW-to-HIGH). Schmitt-trigger action tolerates slow edges.
12 2D input Flip-flop 2 data input. Value latched into flip-flop 2 on the LOW-to-HIGH edge of 2CP and presented at 2Q.
13 2RD input Flip-flop 2 asynchronous reset-direct input (active LOW). Drives 2Q LOW / 2Q-bar HIGH independent of clock when asserted.
14 VCC power_in Positive supply voltage. Operating range 2.0 V to 6.0 V for 74HC74 (4.5 V to 5.5 V for 74HCT74). Absolute maximum 7 V.

3D model downloads

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
74hc74d.step 195 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
74hc74d-etched.step 1.5 MB You want the part with 74HC74D already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 405 faces against 237 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
