Six open-drain inverters in a 14-SOIC — what that buys you
The CD74AC05M is a hex inverter from TI's 74AC family with open-drain outputs. Each of the six inverters can sink up to 24 mA but cannot source current.
Temperature range and environment
Rated for -55°C to 125°C, the CD74AC05M covers the full military temperature span. The 125°C junction limit is the absolute ceiling.
Lifecycle and sourcing posture
TI lists the CD74AC05M as Active and ROHS3 compliant. For a BOM line that needs a wide-temperature open-drain inverter, this is a stable, non-obsolete choice.
