01 · Device purpose
Product Overview and Selection Scope
SN74LVC1G175 contains one positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with an active-low asynchronous clear input.
- Wide supply range: 1.65 V to 5.5 V operation.
- Edge-triggered storage: with CLR HIGH, Q captures D on the rising edge of CLK.
- Asynchronous clear: CLR LOW forces Q LOW regardless of CLK or D.
- 5.5 V input acceptance: data and control inputs are specified from 0 V to 5.5 V.
- Output drive: ±24 mA at VCC = 3.0 V under the specified DC tests.
- Partial power-down: Ioff supports live insertion, back-drive protection and powered-down interfaces.
Selection boundary: This device stores one bit. It is not a latch, clock divider, multibit register, synchronizer qualification or metastability guarantee. Verify setup, hold, pulse-width and propagation limits for the real clock and data paths.
02 · Logic and pins
Positive-Edge Capture, Asynchronous Clear and Pin Assignment
With CLR HIGH, the rising clock edge transfers D to Q. CLR LOW has priority and forces Q LOW without waiting for a clock edge.


| Pin | Name | Type | Function | Engineering note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | CLK | Input | Clock input | Q captures D on the rising edge when CLR is HIGH. |
| 2 | GND | Power | Ground | Use a short local return path. |
| 3 | D | Input | Data input | Meet setup and hold requirements around CLK ↑. |
| 4 | Q | Output | Stored data output | Check output load and receiver thresholds. |
| 5 | VCC | Power | Supply | Place local bypass capacitance close to pins 5 and 2. |
| 6 | CLR | Input | Active-low asynchronous clear | LOW forces Q LOW regardless of CLK and D. |

07 · Implementation
Clocking, Shift-Register Use and PCB Guidance
- Meet setup and hold: keep D stable around the active CLK edge for the specified intervals.
- Meet pulse widths: validate both CLK HIGH/LOW and CLR LOW durations at the actual supply and temperature.
- Control CLR release: satisfy the inactive-clear setup time before a rising CLK edge.
- Do not leave inputs floating: tie unused D, CLK and CLR inputs to defined logic levels.
- Avoid output contention: Q actively drives HIGH and LOW; do not connect competing push-pull outputs.
- Bypass locally: place a 0.1 µF capacitor close to VCC and GND; the PDF also notes 0.1 µF and 1 µF may be paralleled for broader noise rejection.

System check: Validate clock integrity, skew, setup/hold margin, clear sequencing, output loading, power sequencing and metastability risk in the finished design.

SN74LVC1G175 Engineering FAQs
What function does SN74LVC1G175 implement?
With CLR HIGH, Q captures D on each rising CLK edge. CLR LOW forces Q LOW asynchronously.
Does CLR need a clock edge to clear Q?
No. CLR is asynchronous and active LOW, so Q is forced LOW regardless of CLK and D.
What supply range is recommended?
VCC is specified from 1.65 V to 5.5 V for operation.
Can inputs accept 5.5 V when VCC is lower or off?
The recommended input range is 0 V to 5.5 V, and Ioff is specified for partial power-down. Validate all board-level back-power paths.
What timing must be checked?
Check CLK and CLR pulse widths, D setup and hold times, CLR inactive setup time, maximum clock frequency and both CLK-to-Q and CLR-to-Q propagation delay.
Can several devices form a shift register?
Yes. The PDF shows four devices connected with a common clock as a 4-bit serial shift register.
Which packages are listed?
SN74LVC1G175DBVR is SOT23-6 with C755 marking. SN74LVC1G175DCKR is SC70-6 with D65 marking. Both are MSL 3 and tape-and-reel packed in quantities of 3,000.
Can an input be left open?
No. Every unused input must be held at VCC or GND.
