Product details

What the ratings mean for the BOM

The SN74HCS00BQAR: The Schmitt-trigger inputs provide hysteresis that cleans up slow or noisy edges – critical for long trace runs, sensor interfaces, or oscillator circuits where a standard CMOS input would chatter. The 2 µA maximum quiescent current means this gate adds negligible standby draw, so it fits into battery-backed or always-on domains without a power budget hit. The 7.8 mA output drive is enough to drive a single standard CMOS load or a low-power LED, but you will need a buffer for heavier fan-out.

Frequently asked questions

Is SN74HCS00BQAR compatible with 3.3V logic?

Yes. The 2V to 6V supply range covers both 3.3V and 5V systems directly, and the Schmitt-trigger inputs accept the logic levels from those rails without external level shifting. Input logic low is 1V to 3V; input logic high is 1.5V to 4.2V, so a 3.3V CMOS output drives it cleanly.

What are the alternatives to SN74HCS00BQAR?

The SN74LV00APWR is a quad 2-input NAND gate in the 74LV family, but it lacks Schmitt-trigger inputs and operates only up to 85°C. If you need an inverter instead of a NAND, the SN74HCS04PWR or the automotive-qualified SN74HCS14QDRQ1 are in the same 74HCS series with Schmitt-trigger inputs and similar supply and temperature ratings.
