74AC08MTC

Overview

The onsemi 74AC08MTC is a quad 2-input AND gate logic IC from the 74AC series, housed in a TSSOP-14 surface-mount package. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V and supports an operating temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C. The device features four gates with eight inputs and four outputs, providing a low-level output current of 24 mA and a high-level output current of -24 mA. Propagation delay is specified at 5.5 ns.

Feature Summary

• Integrates four independent 2-input AND logic functions within a single compact package.
• Provides high drive capability with symmetric output currents of ±24 mA for direct load driving.
• Operates across a wide supply voltage range from 2 V to 6 V for flexible system integration.

Applications

• Digital signal processing circuits requiring logical AND operations
• Control systems utilizing multiple logic gates in limited space
• Portable electronic devices benefiting from low power consumption

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or official manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the latest datasheet or environmental declaration. Check for end-of-life notices or production change notifications prior to final design approval. Ensure packaging specifications match assembly requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a wide supply voltage range including 2 V operation is required. Compare propagation delay and output current against alternative logic families like HCT or VHC if speed or drive strength differs significantly. Verify pin compatibility with existing PCB footprints before substitution.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 74AC logic family, known for CMOS technology offering reduced power consumption compared to earlier standards. The 74AC08 variant specifically provides four AND gates, distinguishing it from OR or NAND equivalents within the same series.

Replacement Considerations

Check for equivalent parts such as MC74AC08DG or 74AC08SJX from onsemi, noting differences in package type (SOIC vs SOP) and delivery format. Verify functional equivalence and electrical parameters before substituting.
