SN74HC14DRE4

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74HC14DRE4 is a hex inverter with Schmitt-trigger inputs manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2V to 6V and supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. The device provides buffered inputs, significant power reduction compared to LSTTL logic ICs, and supports fanout up to 10 LSTTL loads. It contains six independent inverters performing the Boolean function Y = A.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Features buffered inputs for signal integrity
• Provides hysteresis via Schmitt-trigger architecture
• Supports wide operating voltage and temperature ranges

Inverter Gates Applications

• Synchronize inverted clock inputs
• Debounce a switch
• Invert a digital signal

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'RE4' against current manufacturer documentation to confirm packaging details and RoHS compliance status. Confirm that the D package variant matches the required surface-mount footprint and thermal characteristics for the intended PCB layout.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when noise immunity is critical due to its Schmitt-trigger input design. Ensure the application requires a 2V to 6V supply range and standard CMOS logic levels. Verify that the SOIC-14 package dimensions fit the available board space and that the thermal resistance values meet the system's dissipation requirements.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SNx4HC14 family of hex inverters. It is designed as a low-power CMOS solution offering performance comparable to older LSTTL technologies while consuming significantly less power. The device integrates six identical inverting channels within a single 14-pin package.
