Product details

12.2 ns at 5V – timing budget matters

The CD74AC10E: Max propagation delay is 12.2 ns with a 5V supply and 50 pF load. If you need to push past that, the surface-mount SN74LVC10AD clocks 4.7 ns at 3.3V – but you trade the through-hole package and the full military temperature range.

Through-hole package – field-swappable, no hot air

The 14-DIP (0.300" width) is socket-friendly. You can swap this gate on a customer site with a simple IC puller and a fresh part from the kit. No ESD bench required – just basic field practice. The wide pin spacing and clear orientation notch make it hard to mis-seat.

Active lifecycle – no LTB watch needed

No last-time-buy risk, no PCN-driven scramble. You can specify it into a new BOM today and expect multi-year availability through independent distribution.

Frequently asked questions

What is the propagation delay of CD74AC10E?

That is the figure to use for worst-case timing closure on a 5V bus.

Is CD74AC10E compatible with 5V logic?

Yes, the supply range goes up to 5.5V, so it runs directly on a 5V rail. Input logic high threshold is 1.2V to 3.85V, which is well within 5V CMOS and TTL levels.

Can I replace a 74HC10 with CD74AC10E?

Functionally yes – both are triple 3-input NAND gates in a 14-DIP. The CD74AC10E is faster (12.2 ns vs ~19 ns for the HC version at 5V) and has a wider supply range down to 1.5V. Pinout is identical, so it is a drop-in swap if the speed and temperature range are acceptable.

What is the closest functional second-source to CD74AC10E?

The SN74LVC10AD is a surface-mount triple 3-input NAND gate with similar speed (4.7 ns at 3.3V) but a narrower supply range (1.65V to 3.6V) and commercial-to-industrial temperature range only. Not a pin-for-pin replacement due to package, but functionally equivalent if you can use SOIC.
