Propagation delay and drive — what the numbers mean for the bus
Maximum propagation delay is 17 ns at 6V with a 50 pF load. Output drive is 5.2 mA source and sink.
Package and footprint — 14-SOIC wide-body
The package has a 5.30 mm body width (0.209"). The supplier device package is listed as 14-SO.
Lifecycle and compliance — no LTB concern
The SN74HC32NS is listed as Active with ROHS3 compliance. No end-of-life notice or last-time-buy window is indicated. The 74HC series is a mature logic family with broad second-source support; TI continues to produce this part in the SOIC package.
Sourcing and availability
This part is sourced through independent distribution and quoted to order against an RFQ. The active lifecycle means there is no supply discontinuity risk from an imminent phase-out, but as with any mature logic IC, periodic stock checks are prudent for production planning.
