SN74LV04ADE4

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LV04ADE4 is a hex inverter integrated circuit manufactured by Texas Instruments, belonging to the LV/LV-A/LVX/H logic series. It features six independent inverters within a single package. The device operates with a supply voltage range of 2 V to 5.5 V and supports an operating temperature range from -40 °C to 125 °C. It utilizes a 14-pin Small Outline Integrated Circuit (SOIC) package with a width of 0.25 inches. Key electrical parameters include a maximum output current of 6 mA, a load capacitance of 50 pF, and a propagation delay of 7 ns at 5 V. The component is RoHS compliant and has a moisture sensitivity level of 1.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Operates across a wide supply voltage range from 2 V to 5.5 V
• Supports extended industrial operating temperatures up to 125 °C
• Utilizes a standard 14-pin SOIC surface-mount package

Inverter Gates Applications

• General-purpose digital signal inversion in electronic circuits
• Clock signal generation and conditioning
• Logic level translation between different voltage domains
• Buffering and driving loads in low-voltage systems

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number SN74LV04ADE4 against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm pinout, package dimensions, and electrical characteristics. Ensure compatibility with system voltage requirements and thermal constraints. Check for specific ordering suffixes that may indicate packaging variations or environmental compliance status. Confirm availability through authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex inverter is required for low-voltage CMOS applications. Consider the 2 V to 5.5 V operating range for flexibility in power supply design. The 14-pin SOIC package is suitable for surface-mount assembly processes. Evaluate the 7 ns propagation delay and 6 mA output drive capability against circuit timing and loading requirements. Verify temperature ratings match the intended operational environment.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This component is part of the SN74LV04A family of hex inverters produced by Texas Instruments. The 'E4' suffix typically denotes lead-free and RoHS-compliant manufacturing. It belongs to the broader 74LV logic series, which offers high-speed performance with low power consumption. The device serves as a fundamental building block in digital logic designs requiring signal inversion.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

SN74LV04AD is a compatible alternative without the E4 suffix. SN74LV04ADBR is another variant available in SSOP packaging. SN74LVU04ADRE4 is a related ultra-low-voltage option. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution.
