The Texas Instruments SN74HCS04PWR is a hex inverter from the 74HCS series, packing six independent inverter gates with Schmitt-trigger inputs into a 14-TSSOP package. Each gate accepts a single input and delivers a clean inverted output with hysteresis, which suppresses noise on slow or noisy signal lines — useful in industrial sensor interfaces, pushbutton debounce, and oscillator circuits. The wide supply range from 2V to 6V lets it bridge 3.3V and 5V logic domains without a level shifter, and the -40°C to 125°C operating temperature covers industrial enclosures and under-hood automotive cabin zones.
16 ns propagation delay — what it means for timing closure
At 6V with a 50pF load, the max propagation delay is 16 ns per gate.
Lifecycle status is Active with no NRND or EOL flags. ROHS3 compliant. No last-time-buy window is in effect, and no successor has been announced.
