74VHCU04
Hex Inverter
Features
General Description
■ High Speed: t = 3.5ns (typ.) at V = 5V
The VHCU04 is an advanced high speed CMOS Inverter
fabricated with silicon gate CMOS technology. It
achieves the high speed operation similar to equivalent
Bipolar Schottky TTL while maintaining the CMOS low
power dissipation.

■ Power down protection is provided on all inputs
■ Low Noise: V = 0.8V (max.)
OLP
Since the internal circuit is composed of a single stage
inverter, it can be used in analog applications such as
crystal oscillators. An input protection circuit ensures that
0V to 7V can be applied to the input pins without regard
to the supply voltage. This device can be used to inter-
face 5V to 3V systems and two supply systems such as
battery backup. This circuit prevents device destruction
due to mismatched supply and input voltages.
