SN74LVCU04ADBR

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LVCU04ADBR is a hex inverter from Texas Instruments, part of the LVCU logic series. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 3.6 V and features inputs that accept voltages up to 5.5 V. The device provides a maximum propagation delay (tpd) of 3.8 ns and includes typical output ground bounce protection (VOLP). It contains six independent inverting circuits housed in a 14-pin SSOP package. The component supports surface-mount installation and functions reliably across an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Hex inverter configuration with six independent channels
• Input compatibility with 5.5 V signals while operating at lower supply voltages
• High-speed performance with low propagation delay
• Integrated output ground bounce protection for signal integrity

Inverter Gates Applications

• General-purpose digital signal inversion
• Clock signal buffering and conditioning
• Interface level shifting between 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'DBR' corresponds to the 14-pin SSOP package and tape-and-reel packaging format. Confirm RoHS compliance status as indicated by the manufacturer's documentation. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact electrical specifications required for the target application environment.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex inverter is required for low-voltage CMOS applications. It is suitable for designs needing input tolerance to 5.5 V despite lower supply operation. Consider the 14-SSOP package constraints for PCB layout. Verify thermal requirements against the specified operating temperature range.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LVCU04A family of hex inverters manufactured by Texas Instruments. The LVCU series is designed for ultra-low voltage operation. The 'DBR' suffix typically denotes the specific package type and reel quantity configuration provided by the manufacturer for surface-mount assembly processes.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include SN74LVCU04APWRE4 and SN74LVCU04ADBR variants from Texas Instruments. Cross-reference pinouts and electrical characteristics before substitution.
