Military temperature range — avionics and downhole use
The 10 pF input capacitance is low enough to avoid loading the driving gate excessively, even over long PCB traces. The 6 mA source/sink output current drives standard TTL loads or CMOS inputs on the same 5V rail. For high-reliability builds, the through-hole PDIP package is easier to inspect and rework than surface-mount alternatives.
ROHS3 compliant. The 74F374SCX-NS offers 140 MHz and surface-mount packaging but is commercial temperature only.
