SN74LVC14APWRG3

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LVC14APWRG3 is a hex Schmitt-trigger inverter from Texas Instruments' LVC logic family. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65V to 3.6V and features six independent inverters with Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise filtering. The device utilizes a 14-TSSOP surface-mount package. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum static current of 1 µA, output drive currents of ±24 mA, and a typical propagation delay of 6.2 ns at 3.3V with a 50 pF load. It supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +125°C.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Schmitt-trigger inputs provide defined thresholds to filter noisy signals and prevent false triggering.
• Over-voltage tolerant inputs allow safe interfacing with higher voltage systems without power supply requirements.
• Partial power-down capability (Ioff) prevents excessive current draw when the device is powered down but system voltages are active.

Inverter Gates Applications

• Signal conditioning for noisy digital lines
• Glitch elimination in data transmission paths
• Interface between different voltage domains

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the G3 suffix indicates RoHS compliance and halogen-free status per manufacturer specifications. Confirm the TSSOP-14 package dimensions match PCB footprint requirements. Ensure ESD handling protocols are followed during assembly. Cross-reference the specific revision level against design documentation to guarantee parameter consistency.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when Schmitt-trigger hysteresis is required for signal integrity in low-voltage CMOS applications. The LVC series offers balanced performance with high speed and low power consumption. Verify that the 3.6V maximum supply voltage aligns with the target system's power rails. Consider the 14-TSSOP package constraints for board space limitations.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LVC14A family of hex inverters. The 'G3' suffix typically denotes Green/RoHS-compliant manufacturing. It shares functional compatibility with other LVC series devices but is distinct from non-Schmitt variants like the SN74LVC1A or buffer types like the SN74LVC125.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

SN74LVC14APWR is the non-RoHS variant with identical electrical and pinout specifications. SN74LVC14ADGVR offers the same functionality in a TVSOP-14 package, requiring layout adjustment. SN74LVC14APWG4 is another RoHS-compliant alternative in the same TSSOP-14 package.
