74LVC14AD,118

Inverter Gates Overview

The Nexperia 74LVC14AD,118 is a hex inverting Schmitt trigger featuring 5 V tolerant inputs. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.2 V to 3.6 V and supports overvoltage tolerant inputs up to 5.5 V. The device provides direct interface with TTL levels and unlimited input rise and fall times. It complies with JEDEC standard JESD8-C/JESD36 for 2.7 V to 3.6 V operation. ESD protection exceeds 2000 V (HBM) and 1000 V (CDM). The component is specified for ambient temperatures from -40 °C to +125 °C and utilizes an SO14 plastic small outline package.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Hex inverting Schmitt trigger configuration with five-volt tolerant inputs
• Wide supply voltage range supporting 1.2 V to 3.6 V operation
• Direct interface capability with TTL logic levels
• High electrostatic discharge protection exceeding 2000 V via Human Body Model

Inverter Gates Applications

• Wave and pulse shapers for highly noisy environments
• Astable multivibrators
• Monostable multivibrators

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current documentation to confirm package type and temperature range. Confirm RoHS compliance status and REACH registration details prior to integration. Ensure design margins align with the absolute maximum ratings provided in the official datasheet to prevent permanent damage during operation.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when signal integrity requires noise immunity through Schmitt-trigger action in mixed-voltage systems. The 5 V tolerant inputs allow safe interfacing between 3.3 V and 5 V devices without additional level shifting circuitry. Consider the wide operating temperature range for industrial applications requiring reliability under thermal stress.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the 74LVC14A family of hex inverters manufactured by Nexperia. The 'AD' designation specifically identifies the SO14 (SOT108-1) plastic small outline package variant. Other available packages in the series include TSSOP14, DHVQFN14, and DHXQFN14, offering flexibility for different PCB layout constraints.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the same family include 74LVC14APW (TSSOP14), 74LVC14ABQ (DHVQFN14), and 74LVC14ABZ (DHXQFN14). Verify pinout compatibility and package dimensions before substituting to ensure mechanical fit.
