TC74AC04FN(F,M)

Inverter Gates Overview

The TC74AC04FN(F,M) is a Hex Inverter fabricated using silicon gate and double-layer metal wiring C2MOS technology. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.0 V to 5.5 V and supports an operating temperature from -40°C to 85°C. The device features symmetrical output impedance with minimum drive currents of 24 mA for both high and low states. Propagation delay is typically 3.2 ns at 5 V, with maximum delays reaching 9.8 ns at 5 V under standard load conditions.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• High-speed operation comparable to Bipolar Schottky TTL while maintaining CMOS low power dissipation.
• Internal circuit includes three stages with buffer output for high noise immunity and stable output.
• All inputs are equipped with protection circuits against static discharge or transient excess voltage.

Inverter Gates Applications

• General electronics applications including computers and personal equipment.
• Office equipment and measuring equipment signal processing.
• Industrial robots control logic and home electronics appliances.

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package suffix (FN indicates JEDEC SOP) matches the required footprint. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with Toshiba Semiconductor and Storage representatives as environmental data requires specific inquiry. Ensure design accounts for derating factors if operating temperatures exceed 65°C in DIP packages.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when hex inversion functionality is required with AC speed performance. It serves as a pin and function compatible replacement for 74F04 devices. Consider the 2.0 V to 5.5 V operating range for flexibility in varying supply voltages. Verify that the 24 mA drive capability meets the load requirements of the connected circuitry.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the TC74AC04 series of advanced high-speed CMOS inverters. The FN suffix specifically denotes the JEDEC Small Outline Package variant. The series utilizes C2MOS technology to achieve performance levels similar to Bipolar Schottky TTL logic families while preserving the low power characteristics inherent to CMOS designs.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

The datasheet explicitly notes pin and function compatibility with the 74F04 logic family. Designers replacing legacy 74F04 components should verify that the higher input capacitance and different switching thresholds of the AC series do not impact existing timing margins.
