Quad NAND gate for wide-voltage, low-power logic
Each of the four gates can sink or source 3.4 mA, with propagation delay rated at 50 ns at 15V into a 50 pF load.
Supply voltage and logic thresholds
The 3V to 18V supply range is the defining feature of the 4000B family — it lets this gate work in systems with unregulated battery rails, 12V industrial buses, or 5V TTL environments without a separate level translator. Input logic-low threshold is 1V to 2.5V, and logic-high is 4V to 12.5V, scaled with VDD. At 5V supply, a standard TTL output drives it cleanly; at 12V, it interfaces directly with 12V sensor outputs or relay coils.
The 14-SO package is board-level compatible with standard reflow profiles;.
For BOM stability, this part does not require a bridge-buy or lifetime-buy planning.
