Product details

Six inverters in a 14-SOIC — what this part does

The operating temperature range spans -40°C to 125°C, qualifying the part for industrial environments — motor drives, outdoor telecom cabinets, factory-floor I/O modules — where the ambient can climb well above commercial-grade limits.

Quiescent current and power budget

Maximum quiescent current is 1 µA. For a six-gate device, that leakage is negligible in battery-powered or always-on circuits. The part draws essentially no standing current when the inputs are static.

Packaging and lifecycle

The SN74LVC04AD ships in a Tube (the 'D' suffix indicates SOIC package, no R for tape-and-reel). The 14-SOIC body measures 0.154" wide, 3.90 mm body width — a standard footprint that matches many legacy and current PCB layouts. The part is RoHS3 compliant, so it meets the current EU restriction directive without exemption. Because this is an active, current-production part from TI, there is no LTB risk. The laser-etched markings on the package body should trace cleanly to TI's assembly plant and date-code — something worth checking if the part arrives from a non-franchised source.

Frequently asked questions

What is the typical propagation delay of SN74LVC04AD at 3.3V?

Maximum propagation delay is 4.3 ns at 3.3V with a 50 pF load. That figure is the worst-case over temperature and voltage; typical performance is faster.

What is the difference between SN74LVC04AD and SN74LVC04ADR?

The only difference is the shipping medium: SN74LVC04AD comes in a Tube, while SN74LVC04ADR ships in Tape & Reel. The silicon, package, and electrical specs are identical.

Is SN74LVC04AD RoHS compliant?

Yes, it is rated ROHS3 Compliant, meeting the current EU RoHS directive without exemptions.

Is SN74LVC04AD a direct equivalent to 74HC04?

Functionally yes — both are hex inverters. But the 74LVC family runs on a lower supply range (1.65V–3.6V vs 2V–6V for HC) and offers faster propagation delay at 3.3V. The pinout is the same, but the supply voltage and speed grade differ, so check your system's voltage and timing budget before substituting.

What package options are available for SN74LVC04AD?

The listed package is 14-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width) with a supplier device package of 14-SOIC. It ships in a Tube.
