74LCX07MTC

Overview

The Fairchild Semiconductor 74LCX07MTC is a hex buffer integrated circuit featuring non-inverting logic and open-drain outputs. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2V to 5.5V and contains six independent buffer elements, each handling one bit. The device utilizes a 14-TSSOP surface-mount package with a width of 4.40mm. It supports an output current capability of 32mA and functions reliably across an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides non-inverting buffering for digital signals using advanced CMOS technology.
• Features open-drain outputs suitable for wired-OR configurations and level shifting.
• Supports wide supply voltage operation compatible with both low-voltage and 5V tolerant systems.

Applications

• General-purpose buffering in digital logic circuits
• Level translation between different voltage domains
• Wired-OR bus line driving applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Fairchild Semiconductor or its successor entity onsemi, noting that product lines may have transitioned. Confirm the specific package variant matches the 14-TSSOP form factor and ensure the component status aligns with current availability requirements. Cross-reference datasheet revisions to confirm electrical characteristics remain consistent with design specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex buffer with open-drain outputs is required for non-inverting signal transmission. The wide supply voltage range allows compatibility with various system architectures. Ensure the application benefits from the open-drain topology for bus sharing or voltage level interfacing rather than standard push-pull outputs.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 74LCX series of low-voltage CMOS logic devices. The LCX family is designed for high-speed operation while maintaining low power consumption. The 74LCX07 specifically provides buffering functionality, distinguishing it from other logic gates like NAND or NOR within the same series.

Replacement Considerations

The MC74LCX07DT from onsemi serves as a verified substitute. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter alignment before implementation.
