SN74AHC14PWRG4

Overview

The SN74AHC14PWRG4 is a hex Schmitt-trigger inverter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 5.5 V and supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. The device utilizes a 14-pin TSSOP package. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum output current of 8 mA, a load capacitance of 50 pF, and a propagation delay of 8 ns.

Feature Summary

• Integrates six independent Schmitt-trigger inverters for signal conditioning
• Provides noise filtering and waveform shaping capabilities through hysteresis
• Operates across a wide supply voltage range compatible with standard logic families

Applications

• Signal conditioning for noisy digital environments
• Waveform shaping of slow-rise or slow-fall input signals
• Oscillator circuit design requiring precise threshold control

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'PWRG4' against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm the exact tape-and-reel packaging configuration and lead-free compliance status. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required temperature grade and package variant before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when application requirements demand robust noise immunity via Schmitt-trigger action rather than standard logic inversion. Confirm that the 2 V to 5.5 V supply range aligns with system power rails and that the TSSOP-14 footprint fits the PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

This device belongs to the AHC (Advanced High-Speed CMOS) logic family, designed for high-speed operation with low power consumption. The 'G4' suffix indicates RoHS-compliant manufacturing, while 'PWR' denotes the specific TSSOP-14 surface-mount package type used in compact electronic assemblies.
