CD74HCT04E High-Speed CMOS Logic Hex Inverter

The CD74HCT04E is a high-speed Hex Inverter manufactured by Texas Instruments. Designed to operate over a broad voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V while maintaining CMOS low-power consumption and high noise immunity, this device is suitable for a wide variety of applications in modern digital systems.

The CD74HCT04E is part of the High-Speed CMOS Logic family and is functionally as well as pin-compatible with the standard LS logic family. Each inverter in this hex configuration provides a single input and output, with six such inverters contained within the single package. This configuration allows for the convenient implementation of inverters in circuits without the need for multiple discrete components.

Featuring a balanced propagation delay and transition times, the CD74HCT04E ensures fast switching characteristics that are critical in high-speed systems. It is capable of driving 10 LS-TTL loads and is characterized for operation from -55°C to 125°C, making it reliable for use in a wide range of environmental conditions.

The device is typically packaged in a standard 14-pin DIP (Dual In-Line Package), making it easy to integrate into various types of printed circuit boards. The CD74HCT04E is also available in other package options to suit different assembly and space requirements.

Key features of the CD74HCT04E include:
