Active lifecycle — no LTB pressure
The CD74HC02M96 carries an Active lifecycle status and is ROHS3 compliant. There is no last-time-buy notice or end-of-life announcement on this order code. For dual-sourcing resilience, the 74HC family has broad second-source coverage across multiple manufacturers, though no specific cross-reference is listed in this record.
Package and mounting — 14-SOIC, surface-mount assembly
The part is supplied in a 14-SOIC package (0.154" body width, 3.90 mm) and is intended for surface-mount assembly. The supplier device package is 14-SOIC. It ships in Tape & Reel (TR) or Cut Tape (CT) options, which suits both high-volume pick-and-place and prototype runs. No special handling beyond standard MSL precautions is required.
