NC7ST04L6X

Inverter Gates Overview

The NC7ST04L6X is a single-channel high-performance CMOS inverter from the TinyLogic HST series, manufactured by onsemi. It features TTL-compatible inputs and is housed in a 6-lead MicroPak leadless package (UDFN-6). The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and supports an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Key electrical parameters include a typical propagation delay of less than 7 ns at VCC = 5V with a 15 pF load, balanced output drive currents of ±2 mA, and low quiescent power consumption with ICC typically under 1 µA at 5.5V.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• TTL-compatible input levels facilitate direct interfacing between TTL and NMOS/CMOS logic families.
• Advanced Silicon Gate CMOS fabrication ensures high-speed operation combined with low power dissipation.
• Inherent ESD protection diodes guard both input and output terminals against the VCC and GND rails.

Inverter Gates Applications

• TTL to NMOS/CMOS interfacing
• High-speed signal inversion in portable electronics
• Low-power logic circuit design

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering code matches the required package type, as the NC7ST04 family includes SOT23-5, SC70-5, and MicroPak variants. Confirm the suffix 'L6X' corresponds to the 6-lead MicroPak package with 5k units per tape and reel. Ensure compatibility with the 4.5V–5.5V supply voltage range for your target application environment.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a single inverter function is required with TTL-compatible input thresholds. It is suitable for applications demanding high speed with low quiescent current. Consider the MicroPak package for space-constrained designs requiring a leadless surface-mount solution. Validate performance against specific load capacitance requirements, as propagation delay varies with CL.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the TinyLogic HST (High-Speed TTL) family, which bridges the gap between traditional TTL logic and modern CMOS technologies. The NC7ST04 variant specifically provides a single inverter gate. The L6X suffix denotes the 6-lead MicroPak package, distinguishing it from the SOT23-5 (M5X) and SC70-5 (P5X) package options available within the same logical family.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same package and logic family include other NC7ST04 variants if package differences are acceptable. For equivalent functionality in different packages, consider NC7ST04M5X (SOT23-5) or NC7ST04P5X (SC70-5). Verify pinout compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution.
