N74F06D,623

Inverter Gates Overview

The N74F06D,623 is a hex inverter/buffer driver manufactured by Nexperia (formerly NXP) belonging to the 74F logic family. It features open-collector outputs capable of driving up to 64mA with a maximum output termination voltage of 12V. The device operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 4.5V to 5.5V and supports a propagation delay of 3.5ns typical at 5V. Packaged in a 14-pin plastic small outline package (SOP), it functions as a high-speed digital logic component suitable for various interface applications.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Hex inverter configuration providing six independent signal inversion channels
• Open-collector output architecture enabling flexible voltage level translation
• High current drive capability supporting loads up to 64mA
• Fast switching speed optimized for high-frequency digital signal processing

Inverter Gates Applications

• TTL-to-CMOS level shifting interfaces
• Driving relays, lamps, or indicator LEDs
• Bus line drivers requiring external pull-up resistors
• Impedance matching in high-speed data transmission lines

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify manufacturer transition details as the product was originally released under NXP/Philips Semiconductors branding before becoming part of Nexperia. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for specific ordering suffixes that may indicate packaging variations. Ensure compatibility with existing SOP-14 footprints during procurement planning.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when open-collector functionality is required for voltage translation between different logic families. Consider the 64mA sink capability for direct driving of low-current peripherals. Evaluate the 12V output rating against load requirements. Compare propagation delays against system timing constraints to ensure signal integrity is maintained across the circuit.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This component belongs to the 74F series, known for high-speed performance compared to standard 74LS logic. The 'D' suffix indicates the 14-pin Small Outline Package variant. As an open-collector device, it differs from push-pull outputs by requiring external pull-up components to define the high logic state voltage level.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements include other 74F06 variants in SOP-14 packages. Verify that substitute parts maintain the same open-collector output structure and 64mA drive capability. Check if alternative manufacturers offer equivalent propagation delays and operating voltage ranges.
