SN74LV4T08PWR

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LV4T08PWR is a quadruple 2-input positive-AND gate with integrated voltage level translation, manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates on a single power supply ranging from 1.6 V to 5.5 V and features Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity. The device supports balanced CMOS 3-state outputs referenced to the VCC supply voltage. It facilitates both up-translation (e.g., 1.2 V to 1.8 V) and down-translation (e.g., 5.0 V to 3.3 V). The PW package variant utilizes a TSSOP-14 form factor.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Integrated voltage level translation supporting simultaneous up-translation and down-translation between various CMOS logic families
• Schmitt-trigger inputs designed to enhance noise immunity and ensure clean signal transitions
• Balanced CMOS 3-state outputs capable of sourcing and sinking similar currents across the operating range

Inverter Gates Applications

• Translation between communication modules and system controllers
• Enabling or disabling digital signals within mixed-voltage systems
• Controlling indicator LEDs in low-power applications

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required package type, as the SN74LV4T08 family includes multiple physical packages such as WQFN and TSSOP. Confirm that the component meets RoHS compliance standards if required by your manufacturing process. Ensure all unused inputs are terminated properly during testing to prevent undefined states.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing logic circuits operating at different voltage levels, specifically requiring AND functionality with translation capabilities. Consider the LVxT family benefits for mixed-signal designs where standard logic thresholds are insufficient. Evaluate thermal performance requirements based on the specific load capacitance and switching frequency expected in the target application environment.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LV4T08 series, which provides quadruple 2-input AND gates with integrated level shifting. The 'PWR' designation indicates the specific TSSOP-14 surface-mount package variant. This series is part of Texas Instruments' broader LVxT enhanced input voltage logic family designed for versatile voltage translation tasks.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other variants within the SN74LV4T08 family, such as the SN74LV4T08BQA, provided the package footprint and pinout compatibility are verified. Ensure any substitute maintains the same 1.6 V to 5.5 V operating range and Schmitt-trigger input characteristics.
