CD74HC366M

Overview

The CD74HC366M is a high-speed CMOS logic hex inverting buffer and line driver manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features six independent channels with three-state outputs controlled by active-low output enable inputs. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2V to 6V and supports an operating temperature range from -55°C to 125°C. It is housed in a 16-pin SOIC package.

Feature Summary

• Hex inverting buffer configuration providing six independent signal paths
• Three-state outputs allowing bus-oriented control via active-low enable inputs
• High-speed CMOS technology ensuring low power consumption and fast switching

Applications

• Bus-oriented systems requiring signal buffering and inversion
• Clock drivers for high-speed digital circuits
• Memory address decoding and data direction control

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'M' indicates the SOIC-16 package variant when ordering. Confirm RoHS compliance status as manufacturing processes may update component specifications over time. Ensure the required operating temperature range aligns with the industrial grade (-55°C to 125°C) specified for this part number before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex inverting buffer with tri-state capability is required for bus applications. It serves as a direct functional replacement for standard 74HC366 devices. Consider the 16-pin SOIC footprint for PCB layout compatibility. Verify input clamp diode requirements if interfacing with voltages exceeding VCC.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Texas Instruments 74HC series of high-speed CMOS logic devices. The HC designation indicates compatibility with standard CMOS logic levels, while the HCT variant would accept TTL levels. The CD prefix typically denotes commercial or industrial grade availability within the manufacturer's portfolio.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the SN74HC366N (PDIP package) and other generic 74HC366 equivalents from manufacturers like NXP or ON Semiconductor, provided pinout and electrical characteristics match.
