Product details
Overview
MC74LCX14DR2 from onsemi is a low-voltage CMOS hex Schmitt-trigger inverter operating from 1.65 V to 5.5 V, featuring 5.5 V-tolerant inputs, 24 mA balanced output drive, and near-zero static supply current (10 µA). It functions as a noise-immune line receiver for slow-rising signals in mixed-voltage digital interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the MC74LCX14DR2 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include input hysteresis voltage (0.7 V typical at 5.5 V), propagation delay (5.6 ns max at 4.5–5.5 V), 5 V-tolerant input compatibility, and SOIC-14 package footprint.
Technical Context
The MC74LCX14DR2 implements six independent Schmitt-trigger inverters with hysteresis thresholds (VT+ = 3.6 V, VT− = 1.2 V at VCC = 5.5 V), enabling robust noise rejection on slow or noisy input edges. Its TTL-compatible outputs and high-impedance inputs reduce loading on upstream drivers.
Designed for mixed-supply systems, it supports direct interfacing between 3.3 V/2.5 V logic domains and legacy 5 V TTL without level shifters. Input leakage current remains ≤ ±5.0 µA across −40 °C to +125 °C, ensuring stable operation in industrial environments.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - enables single-supply operation across LVTTL, LVCMOS, and 5 V TTL systems |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | −0.5 V to +6.5 V - allows safe connection to 5 V sources without external clamping |
| Hysteresis Voltage (VH) | 0.7 V typical at 5.5 V - provides 700 mV noise margin against false triggering on slow edges |
| Propagation Delay | 5.6 ns max at 4.5–5.5 V - supports >100 MHz signal conditioning in clock/data recovery paths |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA - drives standard TTL loads and multiple CMOS inputs without buffering |
| Quiescent ICC | 10 µA - reduces standby power in battery-backed or energy-sensitive applications |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial control environments |
Pinout & Package
MC74LCX14DR2 is packaged in a 14-pin SOIC (Case 751A), with 0.150-inch body width, 1.27 mm pitch, and Pb-free finish. Pin 1 is marked by notch or bevel; pin 7 is GND, pin 14 is VCC.

|---|---|---|
| 1, 3, 5, 9, 11, 13 | Data Input (A1–A6) | Schmitt-trigger inputs accepting slow-rising/falling waveforms; 5.5 V tolerant |
| 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 | Inverted Output (Y1–Y6) | CMOS/TTL-compatible outputs with ±24 mA sink/source capability |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference for all logic and power domains; must be low-impedance |
| 14 | VCC | Primary supply rail (1.65–5.5 V); decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Schmitt-trigger hysteresis | Enables reliable signal squaring of slow or noisy inputs (e.g., mechanical switch debouncing, sensor outputs) |
| 5 V-tolerant inputs | Eliminates need for external level-shifting circuitry when interfacing with legacy 5 V logic |
| 24 mA balanced output drive | Directly drives up to 10 LSTTL loads or 20+ CMOS inputs without fanout buffers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar hex Schmitt-trigger inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC14APWR | Lower VCC range (1.65–3.6 V), no 5 V input tolerance; 24 mA drive retained | Not suitable for 5 V interface; requires external clamping or level shifting | Select when system is fully 3.3 V and cost-per-unit is prioritized |
| 74HC14D,653 | Wider VCC range (2–6 V), but only 6 V absolute max input; higher ICC (≤1 µA vs. 10 µA) | Higher static power; lacks guaranteed 5 V-tolerant input specification per datasheet | Select for general-purpose hysteresis where 5 V interface is not required |
Compared with SN74LVC14APWR and 74HC14D,653, the MC74LCX14DR2 uniquely combines 5.5 V input tolerance, 10 µA quiescent current, and full industrial temperature support-making it the only option for robust, low-power, mixed-voltage Schmitt-triggering in space-constrained SOIC layouts.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for MC74LCX14DR2?
The MC74LCX14DR2 supports DC input voltages from −0.5 V to +6.5 V, with a guaranteed 5.5 V tolerance during normal operation. This allows safe interfacing with 5 V TTL outputs without external protection diodes or level shifters, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official onsemi datasheet.
Does MC74LCX14DR2 support operation at 1.8 V supply?
Yes, MC74LCX14DR2 is fully specified for operation at 1.65 V to 5.5 V, including 1.8 V. At 1.8 V, it delivers 24 mA output drive, 10 µA quiescent current, and hysteresis voltage of 0.1–0.9 V (per DC Electrical Characteristics), making it suitable for ultra-low-voltage portable and IoT designs.
What is the propagation delay of MC74LCX14DR2 at 3.3 V?
At VCC = 3.3 V and TA = −40 °C to +85 °C, the MC74LCX14DR2 exhibits a maximum propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL) of 6.5 ns, as specified in the AC Electrical Characteristics table. This value ensures reliable timing in high-speed digital signal conditioning and clock shaping applications.
Is MC74LCX14DR2 pin-compatible with MC74LCX04?
Yes, MC74LCX14DR2 shares identical pin configuration and function with MC74LCX04, as explicitly stated in the datasheet: "Pin configuration and function are the same as the MC74LCX04, but the inputs have hysteresis." Both use SOIC-14 packaging with matching A1–A6/Y1–Y6 assignments, enabling drop-in replacement where Schmitt-trigger behavior is required.
What package type does MC74LCX14DR2 use?
MC74LCX14DR2 uses the SOIC-14 narrow-body package (Case 751A), with 1.27 mm lead pitch, 8.55–8.75 mm body length, and Pb-free (RoHS-compliant) finish. The "R2" in the part number denotes tape-and-reel packaging (2500 units per reel), per onsemi's Ordering Information table.
