SN74HCT04APWRG4

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74HCT04APWRG4 is a hex inverter integrated circuit from Texas Instruments, belonging to the HCT logic family. It features six independent inverters within a single package. The device operates on a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and supports a maximum propagation delay of 23 ns at 5.5 V with a 50 pF load. It utilizes a 14-TSSOP surface-mount package and functions across an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Provides six independent inverting channels for signal inversion applications
• Compatible with TTL input levels while maintaining CMOS output characteristics
• Designed for low power dissipation and high noise immunity typical of CMOS technology

Inverter Gates Applications

• General-purpose digital signal inversion
• Clock signal generation and conditioning
• Logic level translation between TTL and CMOS domains

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'A' against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and electrical specifications relative to the standard SN74HCT04PWRG4 variant. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact datasheet revision required for your design constraints. Cross-reference the TSSOP-14 package dimensions with your PCB footprint library to prevent assembly errors.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing 5V CMOS circuits with TTL-compatible inputs requiring precise logic inversion. The HCT series ensures compatibility with older TTL logic families while offering improved noise margins over standard LS variants. Consider the 14-TSSOP package for space-constrained surface-mount designs requiring six inverters in a compact form factor.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This component is part of the SN74HCT04 series of hex inverters manufactured by Texas Instruments. It belongs to the broader 74HC/HCT logic family, which bridges the performance gap between HC (High-speed CMOS) and HCT (High-speed CMOS TTL-compatible) technologies. The 'G4' suffix typically indicates lead-free and RoHS-compliant manufacturing processes.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

SN74HCT04PWRG4: Standard equivalent without the 'A' suffix; verify if the 'A' denotes a specific tape/reel or package variation.
