The SN74LV132APWT is a high-performance, four-circuit integrated device from Texas Instruments, designed to operate as quadruple 2-input positive-NAND gates with Schmitt-trigger inputs. Each gate performs the Boolean function Y = !(A + B) in positive logic, where the inputs include hysteresis which allows for enhanced noise immunity and stable output switching.

Key Features

• Operating Voltage: The device is optimized to operate from a 2 V to 5.5 V power supply, making it suitable for a wide range of applications including battery-powered devices.
• High-Speed Performance: With a typical propagation delay (t<sub>pd) of 4.5 ns at 5 V, the SN74LV132APWT provides high-speed operation that is crucial for time-sensitive signal processing tasks.
• Low Power Consumption: It features low power consumption with a typical ICC of only 20 µA maximum at 25°C, which is ideal for power-sensitive applications.
• Schmitt-Trigger Inputs: Schmitt-trigger action at all inputs makes the circuit tolerant to slower input rise and fall times, which greatly enhances the noise immunity and allows for jitter-free output signals.
• Output Drive Capability: The SN74LV132APWT is capable of driving up to 8 LSTTL loads, providing ample current for interfacing with other logic families.
• Package: Available in the TSSOP (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package) 14-pin configuration, which is suitable for space-constrained applications.
