SN74HCU04DR

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74HCU04DR is a hex inverter integrated circuit manufactured by Texas Instruments, belonging to the HCU logic series. It contains six independent inverters performing the Boolean function Y = A. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V and supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. Key electrical characteristics include a typical propagation delay of 7 ns at 5 V with a 50 pF load, maximum input current of 1 µA, and output drive capability of ±4 mA at 5 V. It features unbuffered outputs and low power consumption with a maximum ICC of 20 µA.

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'DR' corresponds to the SOIC-14 package and tape-and-reel quantity of 2500 units. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead finish specifications (NIPDAU) against the latest Package Option Addendum. Ensure the procurement channel sources active production parts, as alternative packages like the standard tube version may have different availability or obsolete statuses.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex inverter with wide voltage operation is required. The HCU series offers lower power consumption compared to standard HC devices. Consider the SOIC-14 surface-mount package for automated assembly processes. Verify that the unbuffered output characteristic aligns with the application's drive requirements and noise tolerance levels.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74HCU04 family of hex inverters. It is a catalog product designed for general-purpose applications. The 'DR' suffix specifically denotes the SOIC package type supplied in a large tape-and-reel format. It serves as a complementary device within Texas Instruments' broader portfolio of CMOS logic integrated circuits.
