SN74LS00DB

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LS00DB is a quadruple 2-input positive-NAND gate from the Texas Instruments LS logic family. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.75 V to 5.25 V and supports an operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. The device features TTL-compliant inputs with VIH = 2 V and VIL = 0.8 V, allowing compatibility with 3.3-V or 2.5-V logic levels. Electrical characteristics include a low-level output current (IOL) of 8 mA and a high-level output current (IOH) of -0.4 mA. Switching performance specifies a typical propagation delay of 15 ns at VCC = 5 V.

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'DB' corresponds to the SSOP-14 package variant when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead finish details via the manufacturer's official orderable addendum. Ensure design validation accounts for the specified thermal resistance values associated with this package type during operation.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring standard LS speed and power consumption characteristics. Verify that the required operating temperature range aligns with the commercial grade specification of 0°C to 70°C. Consider the SSOP-14 footprint constraints and ensure adequate PCB layout guidelines are followed for bypass capacitors and unused inputs.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SNx4xx00 family of quadruple 2-input positive-NAND gates manufactured by Texas Instruments. The LS series offers a balance of speed and power dissipation suitable for general-purpose digital logic applications. The device utilizes BJT technology and provides unbalanced output drive capabilities as defined in the recommended operating conditions.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the same family include SN74LS00D (SOIC), SN74LS00N (PDIP), and SN74LS00NS (SO). Cross-package replacements require verification of pinout compatibility and thermal performance metrics.
