Dual JK flip-flop for high-speed logic — 100 MHz clock, military temp range
The Texas Instruments CD74AC109E is a dual JK-type flip-flop from the 74AC family, each element holding one bit with set (preset) and reset inputs. Clocked on the positive edge, it delivers complementary outputs at a rated clock frequency of 100 MHz, making it suitable for high-speed counter, register, and state-machine designs in avionics, satellite, and downhole instrumentation where the -55°C to 125°C operating range is required.
Timing budget — 10.3 ns propagation delay at 5 V
Max propagation delay of 10.3 ns at 5 V with a 50 pF load sets the timing closure window for back-to-back flip-flop stages or cascaded counters. Input capacitance is 10 pF, typical for 74AC inputs, so fan-out calculations should account for that load per driven gate.
Package and mounting — 16-pin DIP, through hole
Housed in a 16-pin DIP (0.300", 7.62 mm body, PDIP-16), the CD74AC109E is a through-hole part for prototyping, legacy board repairs, or designs where socketed ICs are preferred for field service. The supplier device package is 16-PDIP.
Lifecycle and compliance — active, RoHS3
Marked as active in the lifecycle stage with no NRND or EOL flags, this part remains in standard production. ROHS3 compliant, no exemption issues for EU or California markets.
