SN74LVC132ABQAR

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LVC132ABQAR is a quadruple 2-input NAND gate with Schmitt-trigger inputs, manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.1V to 3.6V and features 5.5V tolerant input pins. The device provides balanced CMOS push-pull outputs capable of sourcing and sinking currents up to 24mA at 3V. Propagation delay is typically 5.6ns at 3.3V with a 50pF load. It includes ESD protection exceeding 2000V (HBM) and latch-up performance over 250mA per JESD 17. The component is housed in a 14-pin WQFN package measuring 3mm x 2.5mm.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Schmitt-trigger inputs provide added noise immunity and support for slow signal transitions
• Balanced CMOS push-pull outputs allow similar current sourcing and sinking capabilities
• 5.5V tolerant input pins enable compatibility with higher voltage logic interfaces
• High ESD protection ratings ensure robustness against electrostatic discharge events

Inverter Gates Applications

• Combining power good signals
• Enabling digital signals
• Creating active-low SR latches using two gates

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'BQA' corresponds to the WQFN-14 package configuration required for your design. Confirm that the large tape-and-reel quantity aligns with production volume needs. Ensure the -40°C to +125°C operating temperature range meets environmental specifications. Check for RoHS compliance and lead finish details if soldering processes are sensitive to material composition.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when four independent NAND functions with hysteresis are required in a compact footprint. The 5.5V tolerance allows interfacing with 5V systems while powered by lower voltages. Consider the WQFN package for space-constrained layouts requiring thermal dissipation through the exposed pad. Verify output drive requirements do not exceed the specified current limits under maximum capacitive loads.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LVC132A family of quadruple 2-input NAND gates. The 'ABQAR' suffix indicates the specific BQA (WQFN) package variant with large tape-and-reel packaging. It shares functional characteristics with other LVC series devices but offers distinct pinout and thermal properties due to the WQFN form factor.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

SN74LVC132ADR (SOIC-14) and SN74LVC132APWR (TSSOP-14) offer identical electrical functionality with different package footprints. SN74LVC132ABQR is an alternative reel size for the same WQFN package.
