DM5416J-MIL

Overview

The DM5416J-MIL is a hex buffer/driver manufactured by National Semiconductor, now Texas Instruments. It belongs to the standard TTL logic family and features six independent non-inverting buffers. The device is designed for high-speed applications requiring robust drive capabilities. It utilizes a ceramic dual in-line package (CDIP) with 14 pins, suitable for military-grade environments. The component operates with a nominal supply voltage of 5 V and supports an extended temperature range from -55 °C to 125 °C. It is qualified under MIL-STD-883 standards.

Feature Summary

• Hex non-inverting buffer configuration providing six independent signal paths
• Military-grade qualification compliant with MIL-STD-883 testing requirements
• Ceramic dual in-line packaging ensuring durability in harsh environments
• Standard TTL logic compatibility for integration into existing digital systems

Applications

• Military aerospace electronic systems requiring high reliability
• Harsh environment industrial control interfaces
• High-speed digital signal buffering in defense equipment
• Ruggedized communication system driver circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer lot and MIL-STD-883 certification documentation upon receipt. Ensure the ceramic package integrity matches the required environmental specifications. Confirm that the supplier provides traceability records consistent with military procurement standards. Check for any authorized distributor markings to prevent counterfeit components. Validate the part number suffix against official National Semiconductor or Texas Instruments databases.

Selection Notes

Select this component when military-grade reliability and radiation hardness are critical. Compare performance metrics with other hex drivers if lower cost is acceptable. Consider package availability and lead times for ceramic DIP variants. Evaluate thermal management requirements given the extended temperature range. Verify compatibility with existing TTL logic levels in the target design.

Part Context

This component is part of the DM54xx series of high-speed TTL logic devices produced by National Semiconductor. The series includes various gates, flip-flops, and buffers designed for demanding applications. The DM5416 specifically serves as a buffer/driver within this lineup. Similar parts include the DM54LS16 for lower power consumption or the DM7416 for commercial grade use. The manufacturing history reflects the transition from National Semiconductor to Texas Instruments.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include the DM54LS16J-MIL for reduced power consumption or the DM7416J for commercial applications. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical characteristics before substitution. Ensure the replacement meets the same MIL-STD-883 requirements if used in military contexts.
