SN74AS08N

Overview

The SN74AS08N is a quadruple 2-input positive-AND gate from the Texas Instruments SN74AS08 series. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and supports a wide operating temperature range from -55 °C to +125 °C. The device features a low-level output current of 48 mA and a high-level output current of -48 mA, with a propagation delay of 6 ns. It is housed in a 14-pin PDIP package designed for through-hole mounting.

Feature Summary

• Provides four independent 2-input AND logic functions within a single integrated circuit
• Delivers high-speed signal processing capabilities suitable for demanding digital applications
• Supports military-grade environmental reliability with extended temperature operation

Applications

• Military aerospace systems requiring robust logic control
• High-speed data processing circuits
• Industrial automation logic interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number suffix matches the required package type and temperature rating. Confirm RoHS compliance status as it varies by manufacturing date and region. Ensure the ordering information aligns with the intended application environment before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high-speed performance and strong drive capability are required alongside extended temperature stability. Compare against standard commercial variants if industrial or military ratings are not necessary for the specific design constraints.

Part Context

This component belongs to the SN74AS08 family, representing Advanced Schottky TTL technology. It offers superior speed compared to standard LS or S series devices while maintaining compatible pinouts for many legacy designs requiring higher performance thresholds.

Replacement Considerations

SN74AS08N is functionally equivalent to other manufacturers' SN74AS08 parts in PDIP-14 packages. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications before substituting with generic equivalents.
