Device identity and what the FCT family delivers
The CY74FCT273ATQC: The '273' function is a standard octal D flip-flop with clear — each of the eight D inputs transfers to the corresponding Q output on the rising edge of the clock, and the master reset (MR) pin asynchronously clears all outputs low.
Package and board-fit — the Tube delivery
Supplied in Tube packaging (cites), which is the standard through-hole or wide-body SOIC shipping format. The Tube delivers the devices in a rigid anti-static carrier for manual or low-volume assembly — no reel, no tape, so pick-and-place lines need a tube feeder or a manual placement step. The exact package outline (DIP, SOIC, or SSOP) is not detailed in the record, but the Tube format and the FCT family's typical pinout (DIP-20 or SOIC-20) mean the footprint is a known 20-pin 0.300-inch or 0.150-inch body. Confirm the specific package drawing from the TI datasheet before laying out the PCB.
