74LVC04AMTR

Inverter Gates Overview

The STMicroelectronics 74LVC04AMTR is a low voltage CMOS hex inverter fabricated with sub-micron silicon gate and double-layer metal wiring C2MOS technology. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65V to 3.6V, with data retention down to 1.2V. The device features high-speed performance with a maximum propagation delay of 4.5ns at VCC = 3V. It provides symmetrical output impedance with a minimum drive current of 24mA at 3V. Inputs are tolerant to 5.5V, allowing interfacing with 5V signal environments.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Low voltage CMOS hex inverter utilizing sub-micron silicon gate and double-layer metal wiring C2MOS technology for low power and low noise applications.
• High speed performance with balanced propagation delays (tPLH ≈ tPHL) and guaranteed PCI bus levels at 24 mA.
• Power-down protection on inputs and outputs ensures safe operation during power transitions.
• Inputs tolerate up to 5.5V, enabling direct interfacing with 5V signal environments in mixed 3.3/5V systems.

Inverter Gates Applications

• Mixed 3.3V and 5V system interfacing
• Low power and low noise applications
• PCI bus level translation

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the component status as obsolete before procurement planning. Confirm package type matches the 'AM' suffix (SOP-14). Ensure design accounts for the specific operating temperature ranges (-55°C to 125°C) and absolute maximum ratings to prevent damage. Cross-reference with current STMicroelectronics alternatives if long-term availability is required.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring low voltage operation between 1.65V and 3.6V. It is suitable where high speed (4.5ns max delay at 3V) and 5V input tolerance are necessary. Consider the SOP-14 package constraints and the obsolete status when designing for new products. Verify compatibility with existing 74 series 00 pinouts.

Inverter Gates Part Context

The 74LVC04A belongs to the LVC logic family, designed for low voltage digital applications. It offers improved speed over standard AC/ACT families at 3.3V while maintaining lower power consumption. The hex inverter configuration provides six independent inversion channels in a single package, simplifying circuit design for basic logic operations.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

As an obsolete product, consider equivalents like SN74LVC04ADGVR or Nexperia 74LVC04ADB. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications match the original design requirements before substitution.
