The NXP 74LVC14APW,118 is an efficient hex inverting Schmitt‑trigger buffer housed in a compact 14‑pin TSSOP (SMD/SMT) package. Tailored for space- and power-conscious electronic systems, this device delivers superior noise immunity, signal restoration, and consistent performance across various applications, ideal for interface conditioning, oscillators, and clean logic transitions.
Advanced Features and Benefits of the Product
- Wide Supply Voltage (1.2 V – 3.6 V): Enables flexible integration into mixed-voltage designs, including low-voltage and modern microcontroller systems.
- Over-voltage Tolerant Inputs (up to 5.5 V): Ensures safe interfacing with 5-V logic, simplifying level translation without the need for external components.
- Low Quiescent Current (~100 nA): Delivers energy-efficient standby operation, essential for battery-powered and always-on electronics.
- Fast Propagation Delay (~8 ns at 3.3 V): This feature provides clean, rapid signal inversion, making it ideal for high-frequency, jitter-sensitive systems.
- Robust Output Drive (±24 mA): Capable of driving moderate loads directly, reducing the need for external buffers.
- Extended Temperature Range (- −40 °C to +125 °C): Reliable in harsh industrial and automotive environments.
- Schmitt‑Trigger Hysteresis: Cleans up noisy or slow-rising digital signals, ensuring stable logic transitions in challenging environments.
