The SN5480J is an integrated circuit (IC) component manufactured by Texas Instruments. It is a high-speed quad 2-input positive-NAND gate designed for synchronous applications. The IC is part of the SN54/74LS family, which are popular TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) logic chips widely used in various electronic devices.
The SN5480J is built using Schottky diode clamp technology, making it capable of operating at high speeds with low power consumption. It operates on a supply voltage range of 4.75V to 5.25V, and the input voltage levels are compatible with both TTL and CMOS logic levels. The IC offers a typical propagation delay of only 8 nanoseconds, enabling rapid data processing and signal transmission.
One key feature of the SN5480J is its quad 2-input positive-NAND gate functionality. It contains four individual NAND gates, each capable of accepting two separate input signals and producing a logical NAND output. This versatility allows the IC to perform various logical operations, such as AND, OR, and NOT, depending on the inputs applied.
The IC also features open-collector outputs, which provide flexibility in driving various loads, including resistive, capacitive, and inductive loads. These outputs can be directly connected to other logic gates or peripheral devices without additional level-shifting components
