SN74ALS08NE4

Overview

The SN74ALS08NE4 is a catalog logic device containing four independent 2-input positive-AND gates. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and supports an operating free-air temperature range from 0°C to 70°C. The component utilizes a 14-pin Plastic Dual In-Line (PDIP) package. Electrical characteristics specify a maximum low-level output current of 8 mA and a high-level output current of -0.4 mA at the recommended operating conditions.

Feature Summary

• Contains four independent 2-input positive-AND gates for Boolean logic operations
• Operates on a standard 5-V power supply with defined input and output voltage thresholds
• Provides robust low-level output drive capability suitable for interfacing with multiple loads

Applications

• Digital logic circuit design requiring AND gate functionality
• Data processing systems utilizing TTL-compatible logic families
• Industrial control applications operating within commercial temperature ranges

Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix NE4 corresponds to the PDIP package and lead finish specifications required for your assembly process. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level ratings prior to procurement. Ensure the selected variant matches the specific pinout and thermal requirements of your target application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when four independent AND gates are required in a through-hole configuration. Compare against SN74ALS08N for identical electrical performance without the environmental suffix. Consider SN74AS08 variants if higher output drive currents and faster switching speeds are necessary for the specific system timing constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Texas Instruments 74ALS series, representing Advanced Low-Power Schottky logic technology. The 'NE4' designation indicates a specific plastic dual in-line package variant compliant with certain environmental standards. It serves as a standard catalog replacement for legacy designs requiring reliable AND logic operations in commercial environments.

Replacement Considerations

SN74ALS08N is the direct equivalent offering identical electrical characteristics and package dimensions.
