Additional Details

The HD14038BP operates with a supply voltage range of 3V to 18V. It is typically available in a DIP (Dual In-line Package). Each NAND gate performs the logical NAND operation on its two inputs. The output is LOW only when both inputs are HIGH; otherwise, the output is HIGH. The device is commonly used for implementing combinatorial logic circuits, such as encoders, decoders, and multiplexers. Its compatibility with other 4000 series devices and TTL logic makes it a versatile component for a wide range of digital applications. The device's static dissipation is standardized, contributing to consistent performance across different operating conditions.
