SN74LV06APWR

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LV06APWR is a hex inverter buffer and line driver from Texas Instruments, featuring open-drain outputs capable of driving high-voltage loads up to 5.5 V. It operates on a single power supply ranging from 2 V to 5.5 V with low static current consumption of 20 µA. The device provides a low-level output current of 16 mA and exhibits propagation delays of 15.2 ns at 2.5 V, 10.6 ns at 3.3 V, and 7.5 ns at 5 V. Packaged in a 14-TSSOP surface-mount housing, it supports industrial temperature ranges.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Hex inverter configuration with six independent channels for signal inversion and buffering.
• Open-drain output structure allows flexible voltage level translation and direct connection to high-voltage buses.
• Low quiescent current design minimizes power consumption during standby or idle states.

Inverter Gates Applications

• Voltage level translation between different logic families
• Driving relays, lamps, and other high-voltage loads
• Open-collector applications requiring wired-OR functionality

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'PWR' corresponds to the TSSOP-14 package and tape-and-reel shipping format. Confirm RoHS compliance status and manufacturing date codes against the latest datasheet revision. Ensure the operating environment stays within the specified -40°C to +85°C range for optimal performance.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when an inverting buffer with open-drain capability is required for interfacing low-voltage logic with higher voltage peripherals. The LV series ensures compatibility with standard CMOS inputs while providing sufficient drive strength for moderate capacitive loads. Consider thermal dissipation requirements if multiple channels are actively driven simultaneously.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LV06A family of hex inverters. It shares functional similarities with the SN74LV07 but differs by providing inverting rather than non-inverting logic. The 'PWR' designation indicates a plastic small-outline package variant optimized for automated surface-mount assembly processes.
