SN74ACT04WBQARQ1

Overview

The SN74ACT04WBQARQ1 is an automotive-grade hex inverter from the Texas Instruments SN74ACT04-Q1 series. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and features low input current characteristics. The device is housed in a WQFN-14 package, suitable for surface-mount installation. It supports a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +125°C, ensuring reliability in demanding automotive environments.

Feature Summary

• Automotive qualification aligned with AEC-Q100 standards for enhanced durability
• Hex inverter architecture providing six independent logic inversion channels
• Low input current design minimizing power consumption during switching

Applications

• Automotive electronic control units requiring signal inversion
• Clock signal conditioning in vehicle communication networks
• Digital logic interface circuits in harsh thermal environments

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix WBQARQ1 against the official datasheet to confirm package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure the component meets AEC-Q100 Grade requirements for your target application temperature class. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit products.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex inverter is required for automotive systems operating at 5V logic levels. The ACT series offers faster propagation delays compared to standard AC counterparts while maintaining CMOS compatibility. Consider the WQFN-14 package constraints regarding PCB thermal dissipation and pin pitch availability during layout design.
