Active production — no lifecycle risk for this BOM line
The SN74AHCT1G02DCKT: The part is ROHS3 compliant, clearing EU and RoHS-driven BOMs without exemption paperwork.
5V logic fit — propagation delay and drive strength
The 7.5ns max propagation delay at 5V with a 50pF load means it can keep up with clock rates up to roughly 66 MHz in a typical fan-out of four — adequate for most glue-logic and bus-interface tasks where timing margin is not the tightest constraint. Output drive is 8mA for both high and low states — enough to switch standard CMOS inputs and short PCB traces, but not intended for driving relays, LEDs, or long cables. The 1 µA quiescent current keeps standby power negligible, useful in battery-backed or always-on sections of a mixed-signal board.
