The IC component NC7WP14L6X is a hex inverter with open drain output, manufactured by Fairchild Semiconductor. It is a logic gate that performs the NOT operation on its input signals, and its output is inverted from the input signal.
This IC component is designed using advanced CMOS technology, which enables it to operate at very low power consumption levels. It is perfect for applications where power efficiency is crucial, such as battery-powered devices.
Key features of NC7WP14L6X include:
1. Hex Inverter: The IC contains six individual inverter gates, which means it can handle six different input signals and invert them independently.
2. Open Drain Output: The output of each inverter gate is an open drain configuration, allowing for flexible interfacing with other devices. This type of output can be used for wired-OR connections, bus lines, and other circuit configurations.
3. Wide Voltage Range: The IC supports a wide input voltage range from 1.65V to 5.5V, making it compatible with various digital systems and microcontrollers.
4. High-Speed Operation: The IC is capable of high-frequency operation, with propagation delays as low as 2.5ns at 5V supply voltage. This makes it suitable for applications requiring quick signal processing.
5. Schmitt Trigger Inputs: The IC features Schmitt trigger inputs, which provide hysteresis and improve noise immunity
