74HC368D,652

Overview

The Nexperia 74HC368D,652 is a hex inverting buffer and line driver housed in a 16-pin SO package. It operates on a supply voltage range of 2V to 6V with an operating temperature span from -40°C to +125°C. The device features three-state outputs and supports high-level output currents of 7.8mA and low-level output currents of 7.8mA. It is designed for surface mount installation and belongs to the 74HC logic family.

Feature Summary

• Hex inverting buffer configuration providing six independent signal inversion channels
• Three-state output capability enabling bus-oriented applications and system isolation
• Wide operating voltage range supporting standard 2V to 6V digital logic systems

Applications

• Bus-oriented communication interfaces requiring signal inversion and buffering
• Clock distribution networks needing buffered and inverted timing signals
• Memory address decoding circuits utilizing inverting buffer logic

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '652' against official Nexperia documentation to confirm the exact tape-and-reel packaging configuration and RoHS compliance status. Ensure the procurement channel sources components directly from authorized distributors to guarantee authenticity and traceability for industrial-grade specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring hex inverting buffers with three-state control capabilities. It is suitable for applications demanding operation across a wide temperature range and compatibility with standard 2V to 6V power supplies. Consider the SO-16 package constraints for PCB layout and thermal management requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 74HC series of high-speed CMOS logic devices manufactured by Nexperia. It serves as a complementary counterpart to non-inverting variants within the same family, offering identical electrical characteristics but with inverted logical functionality for versatile digital circuit design.

Replacement Considerations

The 74HCT368D,653 is a documented alternative within the HCT logic family, offering similar hex inverting buffer functionality. Verify voltage level compatibility between HC and HCT families before substitution.
