SN74HC27NS

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74HC27NS is a triple 3-input positive-NOR gate manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V and features a 14-pin DIP package. Key electrical parameters include a low-level output current of 4 mA, a high-level output current of -4 mA, and a propagation delay of 23 ns. The device supports a maximum clock frequency of 30 MHz at 6 V and functions reliably across an operating temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Contains three independent 3-input NOR gates for complex logic implementation
• CMOS technology ensures low static power consumption
• Compatible with standard CMOS logic families

Inverter Gates Applications

• Digital logic circuit design
• Signal processing systems
• Microcontroller peripheral interfacing

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'NS' corresponds to the 14-pin plastic dual-in-line package (PDIP) variant. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation or authorized distributor specifications before procurement. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required package style and lead configuration for your PCB layout.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a through-hole DIP package is required for prototyping or legacy board designs. Compare against the SOIC version if surface-mount assembly is preferred. Verify that the 2 V to 6 V operating voltage range meets system requirements. Check pin compatibility with existing footprints if replacing similar 74HC series devices.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74HC27 family of triple 3-input NOR gates. It is distinct from the SN74HCS27QDRQ1 automotive qualified variant and the SN74HC27DR surface-mount counterpart. The 'NS' suffix specifically denotes the PDIP-14 package type offered by Texas Instruments.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

SN74HC27DRG4: Surface-mount equivalent in SOIC-14 package. SN74HC27N: Alternative DIP-14 variant from the same manufacturer.
