What this part is and where it fits
The Texas Instruments SN7416D is a 7400-series hex inverter with open-collector outputs, packaged in a 14-SOIC (0.154", 3.90 mm width) surface-mount body. Each of the six independent inverters accepts a single input and drives an open-collector output rated to sink 40 mA, making it a straightforward choice for driving relays, LEDs, or translating logic levels to a higher voltage rail. The open-collector configuration also allows wired-OR connections where multiple outputs share a common pull-up resistor. Supply range is 4.75 V to 5.25 V; operating temperature is 0°C to 70°C.
Key ratings and what they mean for your BOM
Each output sinks 40 mA. Total package dissipation limits simultaneous full load on all channels. Propagation delay is 23 ns at 5 V, 15 pF.
Lifecycle and compliance
The SN7416D carries an Active lifecycle status, meaning Texas Instruments continues to manufacture it and there is no announced end-of-life or last-time-buy window. The part is ROHS3 compliant, which covers the current EU RoHS exemption set.
