Unlike a standard push-pull gate, each output can only sink current — it pulls low actively but relies on an external pull-up resistor to return high. That makes it the natural choice for wired-OR bus structures, level translation between voltage domains, and driving loads like LEDs or relay coils where you control the pull-up voltage independent of the logic supply. ## 1.65 V to 3.6 V — wide-range supply for mixed-voltage boards Supply range spans 1.65 V to 3.6 V, covering 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V logic families. The input logic thresholds scale with the rail: low-level at 0.7 V to 0.8 V, high-level at 1.7 V to 2 V. That means it can accept 1.8 V logic signals cleanly when running from a 3.3 V supply, or interface 3.3 V outputs to a 1.8 V core — the open-drain output and external pull-up do the level shifting for you. ## 3.5 ns propagation delay — fast enough for 100 MHz buses Maximum propagation delay is 3.5 ns at 3.3 V with a 50 pF load. That keeps timing closure straightforward for clocked logic up to about 100 MHz, with enough margin that signal-integrity budget is rarely the bottleneck. Quiescent current maxes at 1 µA, so the power penalty for leaving unused gates biased is negligible. ## -40 to 125 °C — industrial temperature grade Rated for -40 to 125 °C operating temperature, this part is at home in motor drives, outdoor telecom cabinets, factory automation panels, and under-hood automotive auxiliary circuits. The 14-SOIC package reflows cleanly with standard profiles and the body is small enough for dense layouts. ## Active lifecycle — no LTB pressure The SN74LVC06AD carries an active product status with ROHS3 compliance. No last-time-buy notice, no end-of-life clock ticking.","metaTitle":"SN74LVC06AD Hex Inverter with Open-Drain Outputs, 1.65-3.6V","metaDescription":"TI SN74LVC06AD hex inverter with open-drain outputs, 1.65V to 3.6V supply, 3.5ns prop delay at 3.3V, -40 to 125°C, 14-SOIC.
