Dual 4-input NAND gate in the 74S family
The Texas Instruments SN74S140D is a dual 4-input NAND gate from the 74S Schottky logic family, packaged in a 14-SOIC surface-mount body. It integrates two independent NAND gates, each with four inputs, and operates from a 4.75V to 5.25V supply rail. The 74S series uses Schottky-clamped transistors to achieve higher switching speeds than standard 74LS, with a typical propagation delay of 6 ns at 5V and a 150 pF load. Output drive capability is 40 mA sinking and 60 mA sourcing, which is notably higher than many other 74-series gates — useful for driving multiple fan-out loads or long PCB traces without a buffer. The part is rated for the commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C, making it suitable for indoor equipment, office electronics, and general-purpose logic designs where speed and drive strength are priorities.
Output drive: 40 mA low, 60 mA high
The SN74S140D can sink 40 mA and source 60 mA per output.
Lifecycle and supply posture
The SN74S140D carries an Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant.
