SN74LV14ADR

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LV14ADR is a hex Schmitt-trigger inverter from Texas Instruments, part of the SN74LVxA series. It features six independent inverters with Schmitt-trigger inputs to ensure clean signal transitions. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 5.5 V and supports CMOS outputs. It is housed in a 14-pin SOIC package and is rated for operation between -55°C and +125°C.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision and manufacturing origin when sourcing this component. Confirm that the ordering suffix matches the required package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives and check for any recent product change notices affecting assembly sites or materials.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when high noise immunity is required for logic inversion. The Schmitt-trigger inputs are essential for slow-rise-time signals. Compare propagation delay characteristics against system timing requirements. Verify that the 2 V minimum supply voltage aligns with the target application's power rails.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LVxA family of low-voltage CMOS logic devices. It serves as a robust solution for interfacing different voltage domains while maintaining signal integrity. The device complements other logic families by offering enhanced noise tolerance compared to standard inverters without Schmitt triggers.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include SN74LV14ADRG4 and SN74LV14APWR. Cross-brand alternatives like MC74LVX14DR2G require verification of voltage compatibility and output drive strength differences.
