The SN74LVC2G38DCUTE4 is a dual 2-input NAND gate integrated circuit (IC) component. It is part of the SN74LVC series, which utilizes low-voltage technology for reduced power consumption and wide voltage range operability. The IC is designed for general-purpose digital logic applications requiring high-speed operation and low power consumption.
Key Features:
1. Dual 2-Input NAND Gates: The IC includes two independent NAND gates, each capable of accepting two separate inputs and providing an output based on the NAND logic operation. It can process a wide range of logical expressions efficiently.
2. Low-Voltage CMOS Technology: The IC is built using complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology, allowing it to operate at low power supply voltages ranging from 1.65V to 5.5V. This feature makes it suitable for battery-operated devices and other low-power applications.
3. Schmitt-Trigger Inputs: The NAND gates have Schmitt-trigger input thresholds, which ensure hysteresis and improve noise immunity. These inputs allow for better noise rejection and improved signal integrity, making the IC more robust in noisy environments.
4. Fast Switching Speed: The IC offers high-speed operation with propagation delays as low as 2.7 ns. This fast switching speed enables quick response times essential for applications requiring high data throughput or precise timing
