MM74C04MX

Inverter Gates Overview

The MM74C04MX is a hex inverter manufactured by onsemi, belonging to the 74C logic family. It utilizes complementary MOS (CMOS) technology and is housed in a 14-lead Small Outline Integrated Circuit (SOIC) package with JEDEC MS-012 narrow footprint. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 3.0V to 15V. At VCC = 5.0V, propagation delay ranges from 50ns to 90ns; at VCC = 10V, it ranges from 30ns to 60ns. Input capacitance is 6.0pF, and power dissipation capacitance per gate is 12pF.

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering code includes the 'X' suffix to confirm tape and reel packaging. Confirm the manufacturer origin as Fairchild Semiconductor or its successor entity onsemi. Ensure the component meets the specified SOIC M14A package dimensions. Check datasheet revisions for any updates to electrical characteristics or absolute maximum ratings before final integration.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex inverter with a wide 3V to 15V supply range is required. It is suitable for applications needing high noise immunity and low static power consumption. Consider the 74C family's TTL compatibility if interfacing with legacy 74L series logic. Verify that the SOIC package size fits the available PCB real estate constraints.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the MM74C00/02/04 series, which includes NAND gates, NOR gates, and inverters. These components are designed to offer ideal characteristics for digital systems due to their symmetric rise and fall times.
