The Texas Instruments SN74AHC08DR is a high-speed Si-gate CMOS device that features a quad 2-input AND gate. This device is part of the 74AHC/AHCT series of logic gates, which are designed to offer high performance and low power consumption.
Description:
The SN74AHC08DR is a quad 2-input AND gate, which means it has four independent AND gate functions in a single package. Each AND gate has two inputs and one output. The output is true (high) only when both inputs are true (high). The device is available in a 14-pin Dual In-Line Package (DIP) or a surface-mount package.
Features:
- High-speed Si-gate CMOS technology for fast switching and low power consumption.
- Wide operating voltage range (2.0V to 6.0V) for compatibility with various power supply systems.
- High noise immunity, making it suitable for use in noisy environments.
- Low power consumption, which is ideal for battery-powered applications.
- Available in both through-hole (DIP) and surface-mount packages for design flexibility.
Applications:
The SN74AHC08DR can be used in a variety of digital logic applications, including but not limited to:
- Digital logic circuits: Implementing Boolean functions and creating complex logic circuits.
