Product details
Overview
DM74ALS32M from Fairchild Semiconductor is a quad 2-input OR gate IC in 14-lead SOIC (M14A) package, operating at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V, with propagation delays as low as 3 ns (tPLH/tPHL), output drive capability of ±112 mA (IO), and guaranteed performance across 0°C to +70°C. It performs discrete logic OR functions in digital control and signal routing circuits.
For engineers reviewing the DM74ALS32M datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V), 50 pF load switching specs, SOIC thermal resistance (θJA = 120°C/W), and functional compatibility with 74S32 and 74LS32 families.
Technical Context
The DM74ALS32M implements four independent 2-input OR gates using advanced oxide-isolated, ion-implanted Schottky TTL technology. It delivers improved AC performance over standard Schottky and low-power Schottky TTL counterparts while maintaining full DC compatibility.
Its logic behavior follows Y = A + B per gate, with guaranteed switching characteristics over the full recommended operating range (VCC = 4.5–5.5 V, TA = 0°C to +70°C) and specified input clamp voltage (VIK = −1.5 V) for transient protection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - Ensures stable operation across standard TTL supply tolerance. |
| tPLH / tPHL | 3 ns (min) to 14 ns (max) - Enables high-speed combinational logic in clocked systems up to ~35 MHz. |
| IOL / IOH | 8 mA sink / −0.4 mA source - Supports direct interfacing with multiple standard TTL inputs without buffering. |
| VIH / VIL | 2.0 V / 0.8 V - Matches legacy TTL input thresholds for seamless integration into existing 5 V logic designs. |
| θJA | 120°C/W (SOIC) - Defines thermal derating limit for continuous operation at ambient temperatures up to +70°C. |
| ICC (Outputs HIGH) | 1.9–4.0 mA - Low quiescent current enables use in power-constrained digital subsystems. |
Pinout & Package
DM74ALS32M is housed in a 14-lead Small Outline Integrated Circuit (SOIC) package per JEDEC MS-012, 0.150" narrow body width, with gull-wing leads and standard surface-mount footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, 12 | Input (A/B per gate) | Eight total inputs across four OR gates; each pair (e.g., pins 1&2) feeds one gate. |
| 3, 6, 10, 13 | Output (Y per gate) | Four independent OR outputs; pin 3 = gate 1 output, pin 6 = gate 2 output, etc. |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference for all logic and power terminals; must be low-impedance connection. |
| 14 | VCC | +5 V supply rail; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required near this pin for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Advanced Schottky TTL process | Oxide-isolated, ion-implanted fabrication ensures consistent speed and reduced leakage vs. standard TTL. |
| Guaranteed switching at 50 pF | Validated timing performance under standardized capacitive load-critical for board-level timing predictability. |
| Full temperature-range specification | All electrical parameters guaranteed from 0°C to +70°C-no derating needed for commercial-grade applications. |
| Pin-for-pin compatibility | Direct replacement for 74S32 and 74LS32 in SOIC layout-no PCB redesign required. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar OR gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74ALS32DR | Same ALS family, identical logic function and DC specs; tPLH/tPHL max = 15 ns (vs. 14 ns), θJA = 115°C/W (SOIC). | TI packaging uses different SOIC variant (D package); pinout identical but thermal profile slightly better. | Select SN74ALS32DR if sourcing from TI-authorized channels with tighter thermal margin requirements. |
| MC74ALS32DG | Onsemi variant; same pinout and logic, but ICC (Outputs HIGH) max = 4.2 mA (vs. 4.0 mA); VIK = −1.4 V. | Minor parametric spread in supply current and clamp voltage-fully interchangeable in non-critical noise environments. | Choose MC74ALS32DG when consolidating with other Onsemi ALS logic for supply chain simplification. |
Compared with SN74ALS32DR and MC74ALS32DG, the DM74ALS32M offers the tightest propagation delay ceiling (14 ns), optimized for timing-critical paths, while retaining identical pinout and interface compatibility-making it preferred for legacy timing-constrained designs.

FAQ
What logic family does the DM74ALS32M belong to, and how does it differ from standard TTL?
The DM74ALS32M belongs to the 74ALS (Advanced Low-Power Schottky) family. It combines Schottky-clamped transistors for speed with optimized doping and isolation to reduce power versus 74S, while delivering faster switching (3–14 ns) and lower ICC than 74LS. Unlike standard TTL, it guarantees performance across full VCC and temperature ranges without derating.
Is the DM74ALS32M pin-compatible with other 74xx32 variants, and which ones?
Yes, the DM74ALS32M is pin-for-pin compatible with 74S32 and 74LS32 in the same 14-lead SOIC package. Its pinout matches the industry-standard dual-in-line configuration: inputs on pins 1/2, 4/5, 8/9, 11/12; outputs on pins 3, 6, 10, 13; VCC on pin 14; GND on pin 7. This allows direct substitution without layout changes.
What are the absolute maximum ratings for the DM74ALS32M, and why do they matter in design?
The DM74ALS32M has absolute maximum ratings of 7 V for VCC and input voltage, and −65°C to +150°C for storage temperature. These define safety limits beyond which permanent damage may occur. Designers must ensure operating conditions (e.g., VCC ≤ 5.5 V, TA ≤ +70°C) stay within the recommended range-not the absolute max-to guarantee parametric performance and reliability.
Can the DM74ALS32M drive standard TTL loads directly, and what is its fanout capability?
Yes, the DM74ALS32M can directly drive standard TTL loads. With IOL = 8 mA and IOH = −0.4 mA, it supports a fanout of up to 20 standard TTL inputs (based on IIL = −1.6 mA per load). Its VIH = 2.0 V and VIL = 0.8 V ensure clean interfacing without level-shifting circuitry in 5 V systems.
Does the DM74ALS32M require external decoupling, and what value is recommended?
Yes, the DM74ALS32M requires local VCC decoupling to suppress switching noise and maintain stable logic thresholds. A 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed between pin 14 (VCC) and pin 7 (GND), as close as possible to the device, is recommended per the Fairchild datasheet DS006190. Larger bulk capacitance (e.g., 10 µF) may be added nearby for system-level stability.
