Technical Specifications

The TC4068BF operates within a supply voltage range of 3V to 18V. The typical quiescent current is very low, contributing to its low power consumption. The input high voltage (VIH) is typically 2.4V, and the input low voltage (VIL) is typically 0.8V. It is housed in a 14-pin Flat Package. The operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +85°C. Propagation delay times are dependent on the supply voltage and load capacitance.

The TC4068BF is a reliable and versatile component for implementing digital logic functions, particularly in applications where low power consumption and high noise immunity are critical.
