74LVC32APW – PHILIPS

Overview

The PHILIPS 74LVC32APW is a high-performance quad 2-input OR gate designed for versatile logic operations in mixed-voltage environments. Its key advantage lies in the ability of its inputs to accept signals from both 3.3 V and 5 V logic families, facilitating seamless integration between disparate voltage domains. A critical design consideration when utilizing this device for mixed-voltage translation is ensuring that the 5 V input signals do not exceed the absolute maximum ratings of the 3.3 V tolerant inputs, which could lead to device damage. The integrated Schmitt-trigger inputs provide inherent noise immunity and tolerance to slow signal transitions, simplifying system design by relaxing stringent rise and fall time requirements.

Key Features
