The TC74VHC10FS is a high-speed CMOS triple 3-input NAND gate. It is part of the VHC (Very High-Speed CMOS) family from Toshiba, designed to provide the performance of bipolar logic gates but with significantly lower power consumption. This device consists of three independent 3-input NAND gates. The output of each gate is LOW only when all three inputs are HIGH; otherwise, the output is HIGH.

Applications

• General logic applications
• Data processing
• Control systems
