Product details

Quiescent current and output drive

Quiescent current maxes at 2 µA across the full temperature range. In a battery-powered sensor node that spends most of its life asleep, this inverter won't be the thing draining the coin cell — the 2 µA is essentially leakage. Output drive is symmetric at 5.2 mA source and sink, enough to light a standard LED or drive a CMOS logic input on the next stage without a buffer.

Active production — no LTB clock ticking

The CD74HC04M carries an Active lifecycle status. That means Texas Instruments is still manufacturing it, no last-time-buy notice pending, no broker scavenger hunt needed to fill the BOM line. For a new design or a sustaining production run, this part is a safe call — you won't get a PCN forcing a respin next quarter. ROHS3 compliant and surface-mount in a standard 14-SOIC footprint. No special handling beyond normal SMD reflow.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum propagation delay of CD74HC04M?

The maximum propagation delay is 14ns at 6V supply with a 50pF load. At lower supply voltages the delay increases — budget accordingly if running at 2V.

Is CD74HC04M equivalent to SN74HC04N?

Both are 74HC hex inverters, but the CD74HC04M is in a surface-mount 14-SOIC package and rated for -55°C to 125°C, while the SN74HC04N is a DIP package with a narrower temperature range. They are not pin-compatible for board swap — the footprint differs.
