The VHC00 is an advanced high-speed CMOS 2-Input NAND Gate 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.
The 74VHC00 is an advanced high‑speed CMOS quad 2‑input NAND gate fabricated with silicon‑gate technology. It offers TTL‑like speed while maintaining CMOS low‑power characteristics, includes input protection for 0 V to 7 V, and can interface 5 V to 3 V systems or dual‑supply designs such as battery backup.
The device is offered in several packages, including 14‑lead SOIC, SOP, TSSOP, and PDIP, with both standard and Pb‑free options. Absolute maximum ratings, recommended operating conditions, and detailed DC/AC electrical characteristics are provided to ensure reliable design implementation.
| Typical propagation delay (tPD) | 3.7 ns typ at 25 °C |
|---|---|
