SN74LVC02APWTG4

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LVC02APWTG4 is a quadruple 2-input positive-NOR gate from the Texas Instruments SNx4LVC02A family. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65V to 3.6V and supports an input voltage up to 5.5V, enabling translation between 3.3V and 5V systems. The device provides four independent NOR gates in a 14-pin TSSOP package. It features a maximum propagation delay of 4.4ns at 3.3V and typical output ground bounce (VOLP) of 2V at VCC = 3.3V. Latch-up performance exceeds 250mA per JESD 17 specifications.

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'PW' corresponds to the TSSOP-14 package and 'G4' indicates RoHS compliance when sourcing. Confirm the manufacturer part number matches exactly to ensure correct logic function and electrical characteristics. Check for any recent Product Change Notifications regarding packaging or material updates before finalizing procurement.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a quadruple 2-input NOR gate is required in low-voltage CMOS applications. Ensure the design accommodates the 1.65V to 3.6V operating range and utilizes the 5.5V tolerant inputs if interfacing with higher voltage sources. Verify that the TSSOP-14 package fits the PCB layout constraints and thermal requirements.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SNx4LVC02A series of quadruple 2-input positive-NOR gates manufactured by Texas Instruments. The 'SN' prefix denotes commercial grade, '74' indicates standard logic family, 'LVC' specifies Low-Voltage CMOS technology, and '02A' identifies the specific NOR gate function. The 'PW' suffix indicates the TSSOP package type, while 'G4' signifies lead-free and RoHS compliant manufacturing.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Compatible replacements include other SN74LVC02 variants with different packages such as SN74LVC02AD (SOIC) or SN74LVC02ARGYR (VQFN), provided pin compatibility and electrical specifications are verified. Cross-reference with SN74LVC02APWR for reel-based alternatives.
