MC74VHC50D

Overview

The MC74VHC50D is a hex non-inverting buffer manufactured by onsemi, belonging to the VHC logic series. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 5.5 V and features six input lines with three output lines. The device utilizes CMOS technology and is housed in a SOIC-14 package. Key electrical parameters include an output current capability of -8 mA for high level and 8 mA for low level, with a static current of 2 uA. Propagation delay is specified at 10.6 ns, and power dissipation reaches 200 mW. Operating temperatures span from -55 C to +125 C.

Feature Summary

• Hex non-inverting buffer configuration providing signal buffering capabilities
• CMOS technology ensuring low static current consumption
• Wide operating temperature range suitable for industrial environments

Applications

• General-purpose digital signal buffering
• Address bus drivers
• Clock distribution networks

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status as documentation indicates potential variations. Ensure the specific SOIC-14 package matches design requirements. Check for obsolescence notices or lifecycle changes before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex non-inverting buffer is required within the 2 V to 5.5 V supply range. Consider the SOIC-14 package constraints and thermal dissipation limits. Verify compatibility with existing logic families and ensure the propagation delay meets system timing specifications.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MC74VHC50 series of hex buffers. It shares functional similarities with other VHC family members but differs in packaging and specific pinout configurations. The D suffix denotes the SOIC-14 package variant, distinguishing it from tape-and-reel versions like the DTR2G.

Replacement Considerations

MC74VHC50DTR2G serves as a direct replacement offering identical logical functionality in a TSSOP-14 package.
