SN74LVC14APW

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LVC14APW is a hex Schmitt-trigger inverter manufactured by Texas Instruments, belonging to the LVC logic family. It features six independent inverters with Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise filtering. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 3.6 V and supports output currents of 24 mA at both high and low states. It is housed in a 14-TSSOP package with a maximum propagation delay of 6.4 ns. The component functions reliably across an extended temperature range from -40°C to +125°C.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Hex configuration providing six independent inverting channels
• Schmitt-trigger input architecture for enhanced noise immunity
• Wide operating voltage range supporting 2 V to 3.6 V supplies
• High drive capability with 24 mA output current

Inverter Gates Applications

• Signal conditioning for noisy digital environments
• Waveform shaping and pulse generation
• Level shifting between different voltage domains
• Clock signal buffering and regeneration

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'PW' corresponds to the TSSOP-14 package variant during procurement. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation or datasheets. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required pinout and electrical specifications exactly. Cross-reference with the latest Texas Instruments product data sheet to validate active status and any recent design changes.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when multiple inverted signals with hysteresis are required in a single package. The LVC series offers lower power consumption compared to older logic families while maintaining robust drive strength. Consider the 14-TSSOP package for surface-mount applications requiring compact board space. Verify that the 2 V minimum supply voltage aligns with the system's power rails.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LVC14A series of hex Schmitt-trigger inverters. It is designed for low-voltage CMOS applications requiring high noise immunity. The device is compatible with standard 3.3 V and 2.5 V systems. It serves as a fundamental building block for digital logic circuits needing signal inversion and noise rejection capabilities.
