MC74HC14AFEL

Inverter Gates Overview

The MC74HC14AFEL is a Hex Schmitt-Trigger Inverter manufactured by onsemi, utilizing high-performance silicon-gate CMOS technology. It operates within a DC supply voltage range of 2.0 to 6.0 V and supports an operating free-air temperature from -55°C to +125°C. The device features low input current and high noise immunity characteristics typical of CMOS devices. It provides output drive capability for 10 LSTTL loads and directly interfaces with CMOS, NMOS, and TTL logic families.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Provides hysteresis voltage via Schmitt-trigger inputs to square up slow input rise and fall times
• Offers high noise immunity suitable for operation in noisy environments
• Features low input current consumption and direct interface compatibility with CMOS, NMOS, and TTL

Inverter Gates Applications

• Squaring up signals with slow rise and fall times
• Noisy environment signal conditioning
• Logic level interfacing between different logic families

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'FEL' against official datasheets, as it may denote a specialized package or variant not explicitly detailed in standard ordering tables. Confirm RoHS compliance and Pb-free status through manufacturer documentation. Ensure the component meets AEC-Q100 requirements if automotive qualification is necessary, noting that only parts with the '-Q' suffix are explicitly qualified.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when hex inversion with Schmitt-trigger action is required for noise immunity. It is suitable for applications needing to clean up degraded digital signals. Consider the wide operating voltage range and temperature specifications to ensure compatibility with system power rails and environmental conditions. Verify pinout compatibility with existing PCB layouts.
