SN74LVC16125DBVR – TEXAS INSTRUMENTS

The SN74LVC16125DBVR is a low-voltage CMOS quad 2-input OR gate from Texas Instruments, packaged in a space-saving 14-pin VSSOP (Very Thin Small Outline Package). Operating from a wide 1.65V to 5.5V supply voltage range, it offers exceptional flexibility in mixed-voltage systems. Each gate features two independent inputs and a single output, exhibiting a typical propagation delay of 6.5ns at 3V. The low-power characteristics of the LVC family are evident in its maximum quiescent current of 1µA per gate. Its robust input structure tolerates voltages beyond the supply rails, making it resilient to transient overshoots._x000D_
