5.6 ns propagation delay at 5 V — the speed ceiling for this 74F OR gate
The SN74F32N is a Texas Instruments 74F-series quad 2-input OR gate in a 14-pin DIP package. Its 5.6 ns max propagation delay at 5 V sets the data-path timing budget — downstream logic must settle within that window for glitch-free combinational operation. The low-level input threshold is 0.8 V, high-level 2 V, compatible with 5 V CMOS and TTL families.
Through-hole 14-DIP — board-fit and prototyping
The 14-DIP (0.300" wide, 7.62 mm) through-hole package fits standard 0.100-inch-pitch sockets and breadboards. Mounting is through-hole, so the PCB requires drilled plated holes — no reflow profile needed. The tube packaging is typical for DIP parts; the tubes protect leads during handling.
