SN74ALS832ADWR

Overview

The SN74ALS832ADWR is a hex two-input OR gate manufactured by Texas Instruments, belonging to the Advanced Low-power Schottky (ALS) logic series. It features six independent OR gates within a single package, providing high-speed digital logic functionality with a typical propagation delay of 9 ns. The device operates on a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and supports low-level output currents up to 24 mA and high-level output currents of -15 mA. Designed for surface-mount applications, it utilizes an SOIC-20 package and functions reliably across an operating temperature range from 0°C to +70°C.

Feature Summary

• Hex configuration containing six independent two-input OR logic gates
• Advanced Low-power Schottky (ALS) technology for optimized speed and power consumption
• High drive capability with specified low-level and high-level output current ratings
• Surface-mount construction in a compact SOIC-20 package

Applications

• Digital signal processing circuits requiring logical OR operations
• Bus arbitration systems utilizing multiple input sources
• General-purpose logic integration in industrial control equipment
• Computer peripheral interface designs

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix ADWR indicates the SOIC-20 surface-mount package and reel packaging format. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation or authorized distributor datasheets before procurement. Ensure the component meets the required operating temperature range and electrical specifications for the intended application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex OR gate configuration is required within ALS logic family constraints. Consider the 9 ns propagation delay and 24 mA sink current capability against system timing and load requirements. Evaluate the SOIC-20 package suitability for PCB layout density compared to alternative PDIP packages if leaded options are preferred.

Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74ALS832A series of hex OR gates produced by Texas Instruments. It represents the surface-mount variant of the standard DIP package version, offering identical logical functionality but adapted for automated assembly processes. The ALS series provides a balance between power dissipation and switching speed suitable for mid-performance digital systems.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other SN74ALS832 variants such as the SN74ALS832AN for through-hole compatibility. Verify pinout and electrical characteristics match exactly when substituting with equivalent parts from other manufacturers offering ALS hex OR gate solutions.
