Each of the three independent circuits performs a NAND function on three inputs, giving you three gates in a single 14-pin footprint for board-level glue logic, signal conditioning, or enable/disable gating in mixed 3.3V and 5V systems. The 2V to 6V supply range covers the two most common digital rails without a level translator, and the 5.2 mA output drive is enough for standard fan-out to CMOS and low-power TTL loads.
16 ns propagation delay — what it means for timing
At 6V and a 50 pF load, the maximum propagation delay is 16 ns.
That is the standard industrial temperature grade — no extended automotive qualification (AEC-Q100) on this part, so for under-hood or high-vibration environments, look at the automotive-grade 74HC family variants.
The 14-TSSOP body is 4.40 mm wide.
If you are freezing a BOM for a multi-year run, the active lifecycle means no LTB scramble in the near term, and the 74HC family's long production history suggests years of supply ahead.
