DM74ALS04BMX

Inverter Gates Overview

The DM74ALS04BMX is a hex inverter integrated circuit manufactured by onsemi, utilizing an advanced oxide-isolated, ion-implanted Schottky TTL process. It contains six independent gates performing logic inversion functions within a 14-lead Small Outline Integrated Circuit (SOIC) package. The device operates with a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and supports a free air operating temperature from 0°C to +70°C. Electrical characteristics include a maximum propagation delay of 28ns for HIGH-to-LOW transitions and 31ns for LOW-to-HIGH transitions at 50pF load. Output drive capabilities provide a low level current of 8mA and a high level current of -0.4mA.

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distribution channels due to potential availability of refurbished units. Confirm that the specific ordering suffix 'X' corresponds to tape and reel packaging as documented in the datasheet. Ensure compliance with RoHS and REACH environmental standards required for your manufacturing region before finalizing procurement orders.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when upgrading from older Schottky or Low Power Schottky logic families while maintaining existing pin configurations. The device offers improved AC performance compared to its predecessors. Verify that the 14-SOIC package dimensions fit the target PCB layout constraints and that the 0°C to +70°C operating temperature range meets the environmental requirements of the intended application.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the 74ALS series of logic ICs, representing an evolution in speed and power consumption over earlier generations. The manufacturer transitioned from Fairchild Semiconductor to onsemi following corporate acquisitions. The DM74ALS04B designation indicates the base product, while the BMX suffix specifies the SOIC package and tape-and-reel delivery format.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Direct functional equivalents are available from other manufacturers supporting the 74ALS logic family. Verify pin compatibility and electrical parameter alignment, specifically propagation delays and output drive currents, when substituting with alternative sources.
