SN74ALS30ANS

Overview

The SN74ALS30ANS is an Advanced Low-power Schottky (ALS) logic device manufactured by Texas Instruments. It contains a single 8-input positive-NAND gate housed in a 14-pin Plastic Dual In-line Package (PDIP). The component operates within a standard voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and supports commercial temperature conditions from 0°C to +70°C. Key electrical characteristics include a propagation delay of 20 ns at nominal supply, a low-level output current capability of 8 mA, and a high-level output current of -0.4 mA. The device utilizes TTL input levels and features a plastic epoxy package body.
