Product details

2.8 ns propagation delay — timing budget for the 3.3 V bus

The SN74ALVC04DE4 is a hex inverter from TI's 74ALVC family, packing six independent inverter gates in a 14-SOIC package. Its headline number is the 2.8 ns max propagation delay at 3.3 V with a 50 pF load — that's the figure that decides whether this part holds timing in a high-frequency clock distribution or a fast data path. The 1.65 V to 3.6 V supply range makes it a natural fit for mixed-voltage boards where a single inverter needs to sit on a 1.8 V or 2.5 V rail alongside 3.3 V logic. Each of the six channels can source or sink 24 mA, enough to drive a handful of CMOS loads or a short unterminated trace directly. Quiescent current maxes out at 10 µA, so the part won't be a factor in standby power budgets.

Industrial temperature grade — not just a desk part

Rated for -40°C to 85°C, this inverter is specified for environments that see outdoor temperature swings — factory floor, telecom cabinets, outdoor security panels, engine-adjacent electronics. The input logic thresholds scale with supply: low-level at 0.7 V to 0.8 V, high-level at 1.7 V to 2 V, so the switch point tracks the rail rather than being fixed to a 5 V legacy level.

Active lifecycle, ROHS3 — clean sourcing picture

TI lists the SN74ALVC04DE4 as Active with ROHS3 compliance. No end-of-life notice, no last-time-buy window to schedule.

Frequently asked questions

Can SN74ALVC04DE4 replace 74HC04 or 74LVC04?

Functionally it replaces a 74HC04 in the same 14-SOIC footprint — both are hex inverters. The difference is speed: the ALVC variant is significantly faster (2.8 ns vs roughly 7–10 ns for HC at 5 V) and operates down to 1.65 V. A direct drop-in depends on whether the downstream logic can tolerate the faster edge rates and lower voltage thresholds. The 74LVC04 is a closer parametric cousin within the same low-voltage CMOS family, but verify the pinout matches — both are 14-SOIC with standard inverter pin assignments.
