74LVC14APW,118

Inverter Gates Overview

The Nexperia 74LVC14APW,118 is a hex inverting Schmitt trigger housed in a TSSOP14 (SOT402-1) package. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.2 V to 3.6 V and features overvoltage tolerant inputs up to 5.5 V. The device provides propagation delays ranging from 1.0 ns to 14.7 ns depending on the supply voltage. It supports an ambient operating temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Hex inverting Schmitt trigger configuration with five independent logic channels
• Overvoltage tolerant inputs allowing direct interfacing with 5 V devices while powered at lower voltages
• Schmitt-trigger action ensures tolerance for slow input rise and fall times

Inverter Gates Applications

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

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix ',118' corresponds to the TSSOP14 package variant SOT402-1. Confirm that the required temperature grade matches the -40 °C to +125 °C specification. Ensure design compatibility with the 5.5 V input tolerance limits if interfacing with higher voltage logic levels.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when signal integrity requires noise immunity against slow transitions or high-frequency interference. The 5 V tolerant inputs facilitate level shifting between 3.3 V systems and legacy 5 V interfaces without additional translation circuitry. Verify power dissipation constraints relative to the TSSOP14 thermal characteristics.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the 74LVC14A family of hex inverters. The 'A' suffix indicates enhanced specifications compared to earlier versions. The 'P' in the model number denotes the plastic thin shrink small outline package (TSSOP). The ',118' suffix identifies the specific tape and reel packaging format provided by Nexperia.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements include other manufacturers' 74LVC14 variants in TSSOP14 packages. Verify that substitute parts maintain the same 5.5 V input tolerance and Schmitt trigger hysteresis characteristics to ensure functional equivalence.
