SN74LV04ADBR

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LV04ADBR is a hex inverter manufactured by Texas Instruments, belonging to the 74LV logic family. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 5.5 V and features six independent inverting circuits. The device utilizes a 14-SSOP surface-mount package with a maximum low-level output current of 12 mA and a maximum high-level output current of -12 mA. Static current consumption is limited to a maximum of 20 µA. Propagation delay is specified at 7.5 ns when operating at 5 V with a 50 pF load capacitance. The component supports an extended industrial temperature range from -40 °C to +85 °C.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Provides six independent inverting channels for signal inversion applications
• Operates across a wide supply voltage range from 2 V to 5.5 V
• Delivers symmetrical drive capability with 12 mA output current strength

Inverter Gates Applications

• General-purpose digital signal inversion
• Clock signal generation and conditioning
• Interface between different logic families

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix matches the required package type, as variations exist between SOIC and SSOP configurations. Confirm the specific temperature grade aligns with system requirements, noting that standard variants typically support -40 °C to +85 °C while others may extend to +125 °C. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if environmental regulations apply to the manufacturing process.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact hex inverter solution is required for low-voltage systems. The 14-SSOP package offers space efficiency for dense circuit board layouts. Consider the propagation delay specifications relative to the target clock frequencies to ensure timing margins are met. Evaluate the 12 mA drive strength against the capacitive load requirements of the connected circuitry.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the Texas Instruments 74LV series, which provides CMOS performance with TTL-compatible inputs. The LV series is designed for low-power applications requiring operation at reduced supply voltages compared to traditional HC or HCT logic families. The SN74LV04 variant specifically integrates six inverters, offering a cost-effective alternative to discrete transistor solutions for basic logic inversion tasks.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

SN74LV04ADBR serves as a direct pin-to-pin replacement for SN74LV04ADBRG4. Verify package compatibility when substituting with SN74LVU04AD, as the U-series utilizes a SOIC package rather than SSOP.
