74HC04PW/AUJ

Overview

The 74HC04PW/AUJ is a hex inverter manufactured by Nexperia, utilizing high-speed Si-gate CMOS technology. It provides six independent inverting buffers within a TSSOP14 package (SOT402-1). The device operates on a supply voltage range of 2.0 V to 6.0 V and complies with JEDEC standards JESD8C and JESD7A. Inputs include clamp diodes for interfacing with voltages exceeding VCC. Static characteristics specify input leakage current up to ±1 μA at 6.0 V and supply current up to 40 μA. Dynamic performance includes propagation delays ranging from 14 ns to 26 ns depending on voltage and temperature.

Feature Summary

• Provides six independent inverting buffer channels
• Features inputs with integrated clamp diodes for overvoltage protection
• Complies with JEDEC standard no. 7A for operation across the full voltage range
• Offers high noise immunity and low power dissipation

Applications

• General-purpose digital logic inversion
• Signal buffering in CMOS circuits
• Interface applications requiring voltage level translation via clamp diodes

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'AUJ' against official Nexperia ordering information, as the datasheet lists '74HC04PW'. Confirm that the AUJ designation does not imply non-standard electrical parameters or restricted automotive qualification. Ensure the component matches the TSSOP14 package outline SOT402-1 dimensions and pin configuration before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex inverter is required for general-purpose logic applications operating between 2.0 V and 6.0 V. It is suitable for designs needing high noise immunity and low static power consumption. Consider the TSSOP14 package if space constraints require a thin profile with a 4.4 mm body width. Verify compatibility with system voltage levels and ensure ESD protection requirements are met by the specified HBM and CDM ratings.

Part Context

The 74HC04 series belongs to the broader 74HC family of high-speed CMOS logic devices. These components are designed to be pin-compatible with Low Power Schottky TTL (LSTTL) logic families, facilitating migration from older technologies. The PW variant specifically denotes the plastic thin shrink small outline package, distinguishing it from SO14 or QFN options within the same logical function family.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other manufacturers' 74HC04 parts in TSSOP14 packages. Cross-reference pinouts and electrical specifications such as propagation delay and output drive current to ensure functional equivalence.
