Active production — single Schmitt-trigger buffer in SC-70-5
The Schmitt-trigger input provides hysteresis for noise rejection and clean switching on slow or noisy signal edges, eliminating the need for external RC filtering in many applications. Output drive is rated at 32 mA for both high and low states, enough to drive multiple CMOS loads or a single LED.
No derating is needed for the output drive at high temperature within the package power limits.
32 mA output drive — what it buys you
With 32 mA source and sink capability, this buffer can directly drive a standard LED (with a series resistor), interface to a relay coil through a transistor, or fan out to ten 74LVC inputs (each with ~5 µA input leakage). If your load exceeds 32 mA per output, you will need an external transistor or a higher-drive buffer.
