Product details
Overview
DM74LS32M from Fairchild Semiconductor is a quad 2-input OR gate logic IC in 14-lead SOIC package, operating at 4.75–5.25 V supply, with propagation delays of 3–15 ns (CL = 15–50 pF), output drive capability of ±8 mA, and guaranteed operation from 0°C to +70°C. It performs discrete Boolean OR logic for combinational logic design in TTL-compatible digital systems.
For engineers reviewing the DM74LS32M datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include its 14-pin SOIC (M14A) footprint, LS-TTL input/output thresholds (VIL = 0.8 V, VIH = 2.0 V), output current ratings (IOL = 8 mA, IOH = −0.4 mA), and propagation delay consistency across temperature and load.
Technical Context
The DM74LS32M implements four independent 2-input OR gates using low-power Schottky (LS) bipolar transistor technology, ensuring compatibility with standard TTL logic families. Its input structure supports standard LS voltage thresholds and fan-in/fan-out specifications, while output stages are designed for direct interfacing with other LS or TTL loads without external buffering.
It operates strictly within the recommended 4.75–5.25 V VCC range and 0°C to +70°C ambient temperature window. All electrical characteristics-including VOL (0.25–0.5 V), VOH (2.7–3.4 V), and switching times-are specified under defined test conditions (e.g., CL = 15/50 pF, RL = 2 kΩ), with no guaranteed performance outside these constraints.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4.75 V to 5.25 V - ensures stable operation in standard 5 V TTL power rails with ±5% tolerance. |
| Propagation Delay | 3–15 ns - defines maximum timing uncertainty per gate under 15–50 pF capacitive loading, critical for synchronous logic timing budgets. |
| IOL / IOH | 8 mA sink / −0.4 mA source - supports driving up to 20 LS-TTL inputs or one standard TTL input directly. |
| VIL / VIH | 0.8 V / 2.0 V - establishes noise margin boundaries compatible with legacy TTL and LS logic families. |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +70°C - specifies commercial-grade environmental envelope suitable for non-extended industrial environments. |
| Supply Current | ICCL = 4.9–9.8 mA - reflects worst-case quiescent draw when all outputs are LOW, impacting system-level power budgeting. |
Pinout & Package
DM74LS32M is housed in a 14-lead Small Outline Integrated Circuit (SOIC) package per JEDEC MS-120, 0.150" narrow body (Package Number M14A), with 1.27 mm lead pitch and 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 assigned to four OR gates: Gate 1 (1,2→3), Gate 2 (4,5→6), Gate 3 (8,9→10), Gate 4 (11,12→13). |
| 3, 6, 10, 13 | Output (Y per gate) | Four independent OR outputs-no internal connection; each drives its own load with LS-TTL-compatible voltage/current. |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference for all inputs, outputs, and internal circuitry; must be connected to system common ground plane. |
| 14 | VCC | Positive supply terminal; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed near pin 14 for noise suppression. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad 2-input OR function | Four fully isolated logic gates on one die-reduces board space and interconnect count versus discrete gate implementations. |
| LS-TTL compatibility | Matches standard TTL voltage thresholds and drive strength, enabling drop-in replacement in legacy 74LS designs without redesign. |
| Low-power Schottky process | Reduces power consumption vs. standard TTL (e.g., 74S), while maintaining speed-ICCL up to 9.8 mA vs. 74S32's >20 mA. |
| Guaranteed switching specs | Propagation delays validated at CL = 15 pF and CL = 50 pF-supports reliable timing analysis for PCB trace capacitance up to 50 pF. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar OR gate logic applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LS32DR | Same logic function, 14-pin SOIC, but TI-specified VOH min = 2.7 V (identical), VOL max = 0.5 V (identical); slightly higher ICCL (5.5–10.5 mA). | Valid for same commercial-temp LS-TTL systems; not qualified for extended temp or MIL-STD-883 screening. | Select SN74LS32DR if sourcing from TI-authorized channels with preference for TI's quality documentation and long-term availability programs. |
| MC74LS32DG | Onsemi variant in 14-pin SOIC; identical VCC, VIH/VIL, IOL/IOH, and tPLH/tPHL specs; minor differences in IIH (15 µA vs. 20 µA) and IOS limits. | Functionally interchangeable in all standard 74LS designs; same JEDEC MS-120 footprint and thermal profile. | Choose MC74LS32DG when consolidating suppliers under Onsemi's portfolio or requiring Onsemi-specific reliability reporting. |
Compared with DM74LS32M, SN74LS32DR offers equivalent timing and drive but different supply current behavior, while MC74LS32DG matches all core parameters with minor input current variation-both serve as verified functional alternatives without layout changes in commercial 5 V logic systems.

FAQ
What logic function does the DM74LS32M implement?
The DM74LS32M implements four independent 2-input OR gates, each producing Y = A + B in positive-logic notation. Each gate operates with standard LS-TTL voltage thresholds and drive capability. The DM74LS32M is not configurable-it delivers fixed combinational OR logic with no enable, latch, or tri-state features. All four gates share only VCC and GND connections; their inputs and outputs are electrically isolated.
What is the correct pinout for DM74LS32M in SOIC package?
The DM74LS32M uses a standard 14-pin SOIC (M14A) pinout: Pins 1–2–3 = Gate 1 (A–B–Y), 4–5–6 = Gate 2, 8–9–10 = Gate 3, 11–12–13 = Gate 4, Pin 7 = GND, Pin 14 = VCC. Pin 3 is output of first gate, not input; no pins are NC or unused. This matches JEDEC MS-120 and is identical to other 74LS32 variants in SOIC.
Can DM74LS32M operate at 3.3 V supply?
No, DM74LS32M is not rated for 3.3 V operation. Its absolute minimum VCC is 4.75 V, and recommended operating range is strictly 4.75–5.25 V. Applying 3.3 V will result in undefined logic states, excessive propagation delay, or failure to switch. For 3.3 V systems, consider 74LVC32 or 74AHC32 logic families instead of DM74LS32M.
Is DM74LS32M RoHS compliant?
Original DM74LS32M devices manufactured prior to 2006 predate RoHS enforcement and are not RoHS compliant. However, current-production equivalents (e.g., SN74LS32DR, MC74LS32DG) offered by Texas Instruments and ON Semiconductor meet RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. Aetrix Electronics supplies both legacy and RoHS-compliant versions-specify requirement at time of order for DM74LS32M.
What is the maximum capacitive load DM74LS32M can drive reliably?
DM74LS32M switching characteristics are specified up to CL = 50 pF, with tPLH/tPHL max = 15 ns under those conditions. Driving loads >50 pF may cause marginal timing violations or increased rise/fall times. For heavier loads, add a buffer stage or use a higher-drive device. The DM74LS32M itself does not include output impedance compensation or slew-rate control.
