DM74LS73A
Dual Negative-Edge-Triggered Master-Slave
J-K Flip-Flops with Clear and Complementary Outputs
General Description
This device contains two independent negative-edge-trig-
gered J-K flip-flops with complementary outputs. The J and
K data is processed by the flip-flops on the falling edge of
the clock pulse. The clock triggering occurs at a voltage
level and is not directly related to the transition time of the
negative going edge of the clock pulse. The data on the J
and K inputs is allowed to change while the clock is HIGH
or LOW without affecting the outputs as long as setup and
hold times are not violated. A low logic level on the clear
input will reset the outputs regardless of the levels of the
other inputs.

Note 1:
The “Absolute Maximum Ratings” are those values beyond which
the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. The device should not be
operated at these limits. The parametric values defined in the Electrical
Characteristics tables are not guaranteed at the absolute maximum ratings.
The “Recommended Operating Conditions” table will define the conditions
for actual device operation.

Note 6:
Not more than one output should be shorted at a time, and the duration should not exceed one second. For devices, with feedback from the outputs,
where shorting the outputs to ground may cause the outputs to change logic state, an equivalent test may be performed where V
O
=
2.125V with the mini-
mum and maximum limits reduced by one half from their stated values. This is very useful when using automatic test equipment.
Note 7:
With all outputs OPEN, I

is measured with the Q and Q outputs HIGH in turn. At the time of measurement, the clock is grounded.
