SN74AHC14DR – Hex Schmitt-Trigger Inverter SMD SOIC-14 – Texas Instruments (TI)

The SN74AHC14DR is a hex Schmitt-trigger inverter IC manufactured by Texas Instruments. Here’s an overview of its features and specifications:

• Type: Hex Schmitt-Trigger Inverter IC
• Function: It contains six independent Schmitt-trigger inverters, each capable of converting a logic signal from one state to its complemented state using a Schmitt-trigger input.
• Schmitt-Trigger Input: Schmitt-trigger inputs provide hysteresis, making the input less sensitive to noise and providing a cleaner transition between logic states.
• Number of Channels: The SN74AHC14DR includes six channels, each with its own Schmitt-trigger inverter.
• Voltage Compatibility: It is compatible with both TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) and CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) logic levels.
• Voltage Supply Range: Operates typically at 2V to 5.5V.
• Output Drive Capability: Capable of sourcing and sinking current to drive external loads.
• Package: It’s commonly available in SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) packages with a varying number of pins.
• Temperature Range: It typically operates across a wide temperature range, often from -40°C to 125°C.

The SN74AHC14DR is commonly used in digital circuits for signal conditioning, waveform shaping, debouncing switches and sensors, and other applications where Schmitt-trigger inverters are required. Its hysteresis feature makes it particularly useful in noisy environments or when dealing with signals that exhibit slow or noisy transitions.
