TC74VHC00FK(EL,K)

Inverter Gates Overview

The TC74VHC00FK(EL,K) is an advanced high-speed CMOS quad 2-input NAND gate fabricated with silicon gate C2MOS technology. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.0 V to 5.5 V and supports a load capacitance of 50 pF. The device features a maximum propagation delay of 8.5 ns at nominal supply and handles a maximum output current of 8 mA. It functions reliably across an operating temperature range from -40 °C to 85 °C and is housed in a 14-pin SOP plastic package.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Achieves high-speed operation comparable to equivalent Bipolar Schottky TTL while maintaining low power dissipation typical of CMOS logic.
• Internal circuit architecture includes three stages with buffer output, providing high noise immunity and stable signal output.
• Fabricated using silicon gate C2MOS technology for robust digital integrated circuit performance.

Inverter Gates Applications

• General-purpose digital logic processing
• Signal buffering and inversion circuits
• Noise-immune data transmission interfaces

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (EL or K) against the manufacturer's datasheet to confirm packaging configuration, as these designators typically indicate reel or tube variations rather than functional differences. Ensure the ordering documentation explicitly references the TC74VHC00FK series to match the 14-pin SOP form factor and AHC/VHC-CMOS specifications provided in the official component records.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad 2-input NAND function is required with speed characteristics similar to Schottky TTL but with lower power consumption. The 2.0 V to 5.5 V supply range offers flexibility for various logic families. The 14-pin SOP package is suitable for surface-mount applications requiring standard footprint compatibility.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the Toshiba TC74VHC series of advanced high-speed CMOS logic devices. The series is designed to replace older bipolar technologies in systems demanding faster switching speeds without the associated power penalties. The TC74VHC00 specifically implements the standard NAND logic function in a quad configuration.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Equivalent parts include other manufacturers' 74VHC00 variants in 14-pin SOP packages. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameters such as propagation delay and output drive current before substitution.
