SN74HC10PWT

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74HC10PWT is a triple 3-input NAND gate manufactured by Texas Instruments in the HC logic family. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V and supports an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The device features buffered inputs, balanced CMOS push-pull outputs, and standard high-impedance CMOS input characteristics. It provides significant power reduction compared to LSTTL logic ICs and supports fanout up to 10 LSTTL loads.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Contains three independent 3-input NAND gates performing Boolean function Y = A · B · C
• Balanced CMOS push-pull outputs capable of sinking and sourcing similar currents
• Standard CMOS inputs with high impedance and defined transition rate requirements

Inverter Gates Applications

• Alarm / tamper detect circuit
• S-R latch implementation

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm package integrity upon receipt, as the TSSOP form factor requires careful handling during surface-mount assembly. Ensure compliance with RoHS3 specifications and check for any relevant Product Change Notices (PCN) regarding manufacturing site updates or material changes before finalizing procurement plans.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring multiple independent 3-input NAND functions within a single package. It is suitable for applications needing wide voltage operation between 2 V and 6 V. Consider its balanced output drive capabilities and standard CMOS input characteristics for compatibility with other HC-family logic devices in mixed-signal or digital control systems.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SNx4HC10 series from Texas Instruments, which includes variants like SN74HC10D and SN74HC10N. The SN74HC10PWT specifically utilizes the 14-pin TSSOP package. It is part of the broader 74HC logic family, designed for general-purpose digital logic applications requiring low power consumption and high noise immunity.

Inverter Gates FAQ

What is the Boolean function performed by each gate?

Each gate performs the Boolean function Y = A · B · C in positive logic.

How should unused inputs be handled?

Unused inputs must be terminated to either VCC or ground to prevent undefined operational states and excessive current consumption.
