CD74ACT04M96 Hex Inverters by Texas Instruments

The CD74ACT04M96 device is a high-performance, CMOS logic-level hex inverter manufactured by Texas Instruments. Designed to meet the demanding specifications of modern electronic circuits, this integrated circuit offers a reliable solution for a variety of digital applications. Each inverter within the CD74ACT04M96 is capable of transforming a logical input signal into its opposite value, meaning a high (logic level "1") input yields a low (logic level "0") output and vice versa.

This product is part of the 74ACT series, which is well-known for its high-speed operation while maintaining the robustness and low power consumption characteristic of CMOS devices. The CD74ACT04M96 operates over a broad voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V, making it versatile for interfacing with other logic families and suitable for use in 5V systems. Additionally, the device features inputs that are tolerant to 5.5V, allowing for direct interfacing with higher voltage levels without the risk of damage.

In terms of packaging, the CD74ACT04M96 is offered in a compact SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package with 14 pins, identified by the suffix 'M96' in its part number. This surface-mount package is designed for space-efficient PCB (Printed Circuit Board) designs and is widely used in both commercial and industrial applications.

With its fast propagation delay and low power consumption, the CD74ACT04M96 is suitable for use in a wide array of digital circuits, including but not limited to logic inversion, signal conditioning, and pulse shaping. It is also commonly used in applications that require the generation of complementary signals or the interfacing of different logic levels.

Engineers and designers can rely on the quality and performance of Texas Instruments' components. The CD74ACT04M96 is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C, ensuring reliable function in a wide range of environmental conditions. With its robust design and high-speed performance, this hex inverter is an excellent choice for enhancing the functionality and reliability of digital systems.
