Product details

Six Schmitt-trigger inverters in a 14-SOIC — what that means on the bench

The SN74AC14D: Six independent inverter gates with Schmitt-trigger inputs in a 14-SOIC package. Supply range 2V to 6V; outputs sink or source 24 mA each.

10 ns at 5V — does the timing close?

Max propagation delay 10 ns at 5V, 50 pF. The 74AC family is faster than the 74HC equivalent (14 ns at 6V for SN74HCU04PWT).

Active production — no LTB worry

TI lists the SN74AC14D as Active with ROHS3 compliance. No last-time-buy notice, no end-of-life announcement. For a BOM freeze or a long-production-run design, this part is a safe choice — you are not chasing broker stock for a discontinued line.

Mounting and environment

Surface-mount in a 14-SOIC (3.90 mm body width) — standard footprint, no exotic pad geometry. The -40°C to 85°C operating range covers industrial cabinets, outdoor telecom shelters, and automotive cabin environments. Quiescent current is 2 µA max, so it adds negligible draw to a battery-powered rail.

Frequently asked questions

Is SN74AC14D compatible with 5V logic?

Yes, the 2V to 6V supply range includes 5V. The input logic levels (low 0.5V–1.1V, high 2.2V–3.9V) and 24 mA output drive are well within 5V logic thresholds.

Can SN74AC14D replace 74HC14D?

The SN74AC14D is a functional replacement for a 74HC14D hex Schmitt-trigger inverter in the same 14-SOIC footprint. The AC version is faster (10 ns vs ~14 ns propagation delay at 5V) and offers the same 24 mA output drive. Check the input logic level thresholds — the AC family has tighter hysteresis — but in most designs it drops in without a board change.
