SN74LVC07AD

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN74LVC07AD is a hex buffer and driver with open-drain outputs designed for operation from 1.65 V to 5.5 V. It features inputs and outputs that accept voltages up to 5.5 V, supporting voltage translation in mixed-system environments. The device provides a maximum low-level output current of 24 mA at 3 V and 4.5 V supply voltages. Propagation delay (tpd) ranges from a maximum of 2.6 ns at 5 V to 5.6 ns at 1.8 V. It includes Ioff circuitry for partial-power-down support and latch-up performance exceeding 250 mA per JESD 17.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package type and ordering suffix against the manufacturer's latest documentation before procurement. Confirm that the RoHS status and lead finish meet project requirements. Ensure the operating temperature range aligns with system specifications. Cross-reference the part number with official distributors to validate authenticity and availability status.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-drive hex buffer with open-drain capability is required for 1.65-V to 5.5-V systems. It is suitable for applications needing voltage translation between different logic levels due to its 5.5-V tolerance. Consider the 24 mA sink current capacity for driving multiple loads or LEDs. Verify thermal constraints for the SOIC-14 package if operating at higher temperatures.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This device belongs to the SN74LVC07A family of hex buffers and drivers with open-drain outputs. The 'AD' suffix specifically denotes the 14-pin Small Outline Integrated Circuit (SOIC) package variant.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers FAQ

Can the SN74LVC07AD outputs be tied together?

Yes, the open-drain outputs can be connected to other open-drain outputs to implement active-low wired-OR or active-high wired-AND functions.

What is the purpose of the Ioff feature?

The Ioff circuitry disables the outputs when VCC is 0 V, preventing damaging current backflow through the device during partial-power-down or live insertion scenarios.
