Product details
Overview
74HCT04PW,118 from Nexperia is a hex inverter IC with TTL-compatible inputs, 14-pin TSSOP package (SOT402-1), operating from 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply, delivering propagation delay of 10–29 ns (VCC = 4.5 V, CL = 50 pF), and rated for -40 °C to +125 °C industrial temperature range. It serves as a logic-level signal inversion stage in digital control interfaces, bus buffering, and clock conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT04PW,118 datasheet, 74HCT04PW,118 pinout, 74HCT04PW,118 application, or 74HCT04PW,118 equivalent, this page provides verified functional role, validated pin functions, confirmed static/dynamic specifications across temperature grades, and real-world substitution guidance - all derived from Nexperia's official Rev. 10 product data sheet (Feb 2024).
Technical Context
This device implements six independent CMOS-based inverters with TTL-level input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V), enabling direct interfacing with legacy 5 V TTL logic families without level-shifting. Input clamp diodes allow safe operation with input voltages exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors.
Each inverter exhibits rail-to-rail output swing (VOH ≥ 3.84 V, VOL ≤ 0.4 V at IO = ±4 mA), low static ICC (≤40 μA at VCC = 5.5 V), and dynamic CPD = 24 pF - supporting low-power, high-noise-immunity digital signal conditioning in mixed-voltage systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Function | Hex inverter: six independent NOT gates with unidirectional signal inversion |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with standard 5 V TTL and mixed-signal systems |
| Propagation Delay | 10–29 ns (VCC = 4.5 V, CL = 50 pF) - enables reliable timing in sub-30 MHz digital control paths |
| Input Thresholds | VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V - guarantees robust recognition of TTL logic levels without external biasing |
| Output Drive | ±4.0 mA (VOH/VOL tested at IO = ±4 mA) - sufficient to drive multiple 74-series inputs or small capacitive loads |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood, industrial PLC, and power-conversion control environments |
| ESD Protection | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - meets JEDEC JS-001/JS-002 Class 2/C3 for assembly-line robustness |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar hex inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HCT04D,653 | SO14 package (SOT108-1); 3.9 mm body width; higher thermal resistance (10.1 mW/K derating above 100 °C) | Better suited for through-hole prototyping or legacy PCBs with SO footprint; lower pin density than TSSOP | Select when board space permits larger footprint and hand-soldering is preferred over fine-pitch reflow. |
| SN74HCT04DR | TI-manufactured; identical logic function and TTL input thresholds; slightly tighter VOH spec (≥4.0 V @ IO = −4 mA) | Approved for use in TI-design reference schematics; same qualification but different traceability chain | Choose for TI-centric BOMs or when dual-sourcing across Nexperia and TI is required for supply resilience. |
Compared with 74HCT04PW,118, the SO14 variant trades board area for easier assembly, while the TI alternative offers identical electrical behavior with distinct supply-chain provenance - neither is pin-compatible with QFN variants, and all require matching VCC and temperature-grade validation.

FAQ
Is 74HCT04PW,118 compatible with 3.3 V logic inputs?
No. The 74HCT04PW,118 has TTL-level input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V), optimized for 5 V systems. A 3.3 V logic HIGH may fall below the guaranteed VIH minimum at temperature extremes, risking unreliable switching. For 3.3 V interfacing, use 74HC04 or 74LVC04 instead.
Can unused inverters in the 74HCT04PW,118 be left floating?
No. Unused inputs must be tied to VCC or GND to prevent floating nodes from causing excessive ICC, oscillation, or ESD susceptibility. Each unconnected input draws leakage current and may couple noise, degrading noise immunity and increasing power consumption unpredictably.
What is the maximum capacitive load this device can drive reliably?
At VCC = 4.5 V and Tamb = 25 °C, the 74HCT04PW,118 maintains specified tpd and tt up to CL = 50 pF per output. Driving >50 pF increases propagation delay nonlinearly and may cause overshoot; for heavier loads, add series termination or buffer stages per Nexperia's application note AN10869.
Does the TSSOP14 package require solder paste stencil adjustments versus SO14?
Yes. The SOT402-1 TSSOP14 uses 0.65 mm lead pitch and thinner leads than SO14 (1.27 mm pitch). Recommended stencil aperture is 0.45 × 0.60 mm with 50–60 % area ratio; insufficient paste volume causes head-in-pillow defects, while excess paste risks bridging between adjacent pins.
