SN74LVC32APWT

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LVC32APWT is a quadruple 2-input positive-OR gate manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates from a supply voltage of 1.65V to 3.6V and supports an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The device features inputs that accept voltages up to 5.5V, enabling use as translators in mixed 3.3V/5V systems. It provides a maximum propagation delay of 3.8ns at 3.3V and offers output drive currents of ±24mA at 3V. The component is housed in a 14-pin TSSOP package.

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'PW' confirms the TSSOP-14 package type and small tape-and-reel quantity. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead finish specifications match design requirements. Ensure the operating temperature grade aligns with the intended environmental conditions. Check for any recent documentation updates or revision history changes affecting electrical characteristics.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad OR gate function is required in low-voltage CMOS applications. It is suitable for designs needing 5.5V input tolerance without external level shifters. Consider the TSSOP package constraints for PCB layout and thermal dissipation. Verify that the 24mA drive current meets the load requirements of the connected circuitry.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SNx4LVC32A family of quadruple 2-input positive-OR gates. The 'SN74' prefix indicates commercial-grade temperature ratings compared to the military-grade 'SN54' variant. The 'LVC' series denotes low-voltage CMOS technology optimized for speeds up to 100MHz. The 'PWT' suffix specifies the TSSOP package and reel packaging configuration.
