The 74VHCT04ASJX is a hex inverter from Fairchild Semiconductor (now ON Semiconductor), part of the VHCT family which offers high-speed operation with CMOS power levels. This device contains six independent inverters. It is designed for use in TTL-compatible systems, offering improved performance over standard TTL logic.

Applications

• Logic Inversion
• Oscillators
• Pulse Shaping
• Line Drivers
• Clock Inversion

Features

• High Speed: tPD = 4.8 ns (typ) at VCC = 5V
• TTL Input Compatibility: VIH = 2V (min); VIL = 0.8V (max)
• Low Power Dissipation: ICC = 2 μA (max) at TA = 25°C
• Operating Voltage Range: 4.5V to 5.5V
• Output Drive Capability: 10 LSTTL Loads
• Pin and Function Compatible with 74HCT04

Benefits

• Improved system performance due to fast propagation delays.
• Direct interface with TTL devices, simplifying system design.
• Low power consumption contributes to energy efficiency.
