The TC74VHC04FN is a high-speed CMOS Hex Inverter from Toshiba Semiconductor and Storage. This device contains six independent inverters, each performing the logical inversion function. It is designed for high-speed operation while maintaining low power consumption, making it suitable for a wide range of digital applications.

Applications:

• Clock generation
• Signal inversion
• Buffering signals
• Simple digital logic
• Interface circuits

Features:

• High-speed operation: tpd = 3.9 ns (typ.) at VCC = 5 V
• Low power consumption: ICC = 2 μA (max) at VCC = 5.5 V
• Wide operating voltage range: VCC = 2 V to 5.5 V
• Output drive capability: 10 LSTTL loads
• TTL compatible input thresholds
• Package: SOP14

Benefits:

• High-speed performance: Enables fast signal processing and reduces propagation delays in digital circuits.
• Low power consumption: Minimizes power requirements, ideal for battery-powered and energy-efficient applications.
• Wide operating voltage: Provides flexibility in system design and compatibility with various voltage levels.
• TTL compatible inputs: Allows direct interfacing with TTL logic devices without the need for level translation.
• Hex inverter in a single package: Saves board space and reduces component count.

Each of the six inverters in the TC74VHC04FN independently inverts the input signal. A HIGH input results in a LOW output, and vice versa. The device's high-speed operation and low power consumption make it an ideal choice for applications where performance and efficiency are critical.

The inputs of the TC74VHC04FN are TTL voltage compatible, allowing direct interfacing with TTL logic circuits. The outputs have sufficient drive capability to drive 10 LSTTL loads, making it suitable for driving other logic devices or external circuits. The standard SOP14 (Small Outline Package) package is easy to use in surface mount applications.
