The CD74HCT03EE4 is an integrated circuit component, specifically a quad 2-input open-collector NAND gate, belonging to the high-speed CMOS logic family. Here is an overview and key features of the CD74HCT03EE4:
1. Overview:
- The CD74HCT03EE4 is a logic gate that accepts two binary inputs and produces the logical conjunction of those inputs, negated.
- It consists of four independent 2-input NAND gates in a single package.
- The gate provides an open-collector output, meaning it can only sink current and does not actively drive a high logic level.
2. Key Features:
2.1 High-Speed Operation:
- The CD74HCT03EE4 is designed for high-speed operation and is capable of handling clock frequencies up to a few MHz.
- It exhibits a propagation delay time of around 7 nanoseconds, making it suitable for applications where fast response times are required.
2.2 Wide Operating Voltage Range:
- The component operates over a wide voltage range, specifically from 4.5 volts to 5.5 volts.
- It can interface with various standard logic families, including TTL, CMOS, and HCMOS, making it versatile for diverse circuit designs.
2.3 Schmitt-Trigger Inputs:
- The NAND gates have Schmitt-trigger inputs that allow for better noise immunity and hysteresis
