SN74AHCT08PW

Overview

The SN74AHCT08PW is a quadruple 2-input positive-AND gate manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and features TTL-compatible inputs allowing up translation from 3.3 V to 5 V. The device provides low drive output currents of ±8 mA with propagation delays of 1 ns to 9 ns depending on load capacitance. It is housed in a 14-pin TSSOP package (5.00 mm × 4.40 mm) and supports an operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.

Feature Summary

• TTL-voltage compatible inputs enable signal up translation from 3.3 V to 5 V
• Low-drive outputs minimize overshoot, undershoot, and ringing on signal lines
• High ESD protection performance exceeding standard human-body and machine model ratings

Applications

• Servers
• Network switches
• PCs and notebooks
• Electronic points-of-sale

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current Package Option Addendum to confirm production status and material specifications. Confirm that the component meets RoHS compliance requirements for your assembly process. Ensure proper handling precautions are observed due to electrostatic discharge sensitivity inherent to CMOS technology.

Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing 3.3 V logic sources with 5 V buses requiring AND functionality. The slow rise and fall times make it suitable for applications where output ringing must be minimized without external components. Verify that the required output drive current does not exceed the specified ±8 mA limit per pin.

Part Context

This part belongs to the SNx4AHCT08 family of quadruple 2-input positive-AND gates. It utilizes CMOS technology to provide balanced output drive while maintaining compatibility with TTL input voltage levels. The PW suffix designates the 14-pin Thin Shrink Small Outline Package (TSSOP).

Replacement Considerations

SN74AHCT08PWR is an active production alternative in the same TSSOP-14 package.
