The CD74HCT30E is an integrated circuit (IC) component belonging to the HCT series of CMOS logic family, which offers improved performance over standard TTL logic components. This IC is commonly used in various digital circuit applications, offering a range of features that enhance its functionality.
The CD74HCT30E is a 8-input NAND gate, meaning it accepts eight separate input signals and produces a logic low output (0) only if all eight inputs are high (1). This gate provides a high noise immunity due to its Schmitt trigger input, allowing for robust signal processing in various environments.
Key features of the CD74HCT30E IC include:
1. Wide operating voltage range: The CD74HCT30E supports an operating voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V, making it compatible with both TTL and CMOS voltage levels.
2. High-speed operation: With a typical propagation delay time of 14 nanoseconds, this IC ensures fast signal processing, conducive for high-speed digital applications.
3. Balanced propagation delays: The IC incorporates internal circuitry to ensure balanced propagation delays between any two inputs. This helps maintain synchronization and consistency in signal processing.
4. Negative-edge triggered clock input: The CD74HCT30E includes a negative-edge triggered clock input (CLK), which allows for synchronization with external timing signals
