Product details
Overview
SN74HC05DR from Texas Instruments is a hex inverter IC with six independent open-drain outputs, operating across 2 V to 6 V supply voltage and –40°C to +125°C temperature range. It delivers 20 µA max supply current at 6 V, supports up to 10 LSTTL loads, and provides low-level output voltage of 0.26 V (typ) at 4.5 V supply with 4 mA sink current - used for wired-AND bus interfaces and LED drive in industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74HC05DR datasheet, SN74HC05DR pinout, SN74HC05DR application, or SN74HC05DR equivalent, this page delivers verified functional identity, SOIC-14 package mapping, open-drain logic behavior, propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 29/21 ns at 4.5 V), and real-world design implications for bus termination and level translation.
Technical Context
The SN74HC05DR implements six identical CMOS inverters, each with an open-drain output stage that sinks current to GND but cannot source current - requiring external pull-up resistors for logic-high assertion. Its standard CMOS inputs exhibit ≤10 pF capacitance and ±1 µA leakage at 6 V, enabling high fanout without excessive loading.
Functionally, it operates as Y = A̅ in positive logic, with output states defined strictly by input level: HIGH input yields LOW output (sinking), LOW input yields high-impedance (Hi-Z) output. This enables wired-AND logic, I²C-compatible bus driving, and active-low signal inversion with configurable voltage translation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2 V to 6 V - supports mixed-voltage system interfacing (e.g., 3.3 V MCU driving 5 V bus) |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial embedded environments |
| Output Sink Current | 4 mA (max) at VOL ≤ 0.26 V - sufficient to drive LEDs or standard logic inputs with external pull-up |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 29/21 ns at VCC = 4.5 V - enables reliable operation in sub-30 MHz digital timing paths |
| Input Capacitance | 10 pF (max) - minimizes capacitive loading on upstream drivers and preserves signal edge integrity |
| Supply Current | 20 µA (max) at VCC = 6 V - ultra-low static power ideal for battery-backed or energy-sensitive designs |
| Logic Function | Inversion with open-drain output - enables wired-AND, level shifting, and shared-bus arbitration without contention |
Pinout & Package
SN74HC05DR is housed in a 14-pin SOIC (D) package measuring 8.70 mm × 3.90 mm, RoHS-compliant, with moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1 and lead finish NiPdAu/Sn.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A, 5A, 6A | Input | Independent logic inputs for each of six inverter channels; must be terminated to VCC or GND if unused |
| 1Y, 2Y, 3Y, 4Y, 5Y, 6Y | Open-drain Output | Sinks current when active low; floats Hi-Z when inactive - requires external pull-up for logic-high state |
| VCC | Positive Supply | Power rail connection (2–6 V); decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required near pin for noise suppression |
| GND | Ground Reference | Return path for all output sink current and supply current; must handle total IOL + ICC |

Applications
| I²C Bus Pull-Up Driver | LED Indicator Control |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving SDA/SCL lines in multi-master I²C systems where multiple devices share bidirectional buses. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inverter configured as active-low driver with external pull-up; provides controlled sinking for bus arbitration and clock stretching. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete MOSFETs or dedicated bus buffers while maintaining full I²C compliance at up to 400 kHz. |
Use Scenario: Direct LED on/off control from microcontroller GPIO pins with inverted logic polarity. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Open-drain inverter sinks current through LED cathode; input HIGH turns LED ON, input LOW turns LED OFF. Use Value: Simplifies firmware logic (no software inversion needed) and provides robust current-limited drive up to 4 mA per channel. |
| Wired-AND Logic Interface | Reset Signal Conditioning |
Use Scenario: Combining multiple system fault signals (e.g., thermal shutdown, overcurrent, watchdog timeout) into a single active-low reset line. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Each inverter input receives a separate fault signal; outputs tied together form a wired-AND node pulled up externally. Use Value: Provides hardware OR-of-faults (active-low) with no additional logic gates or timing skew between sources. |
Use Scenario: Inverting and conditioning a clean, debounced reset signal for microcontroller reset pin requiring active-low assertion. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Converts active-high processor reset output to active-low system reset; open-drain allows safe sharing with other reset sources. Use Value: Adds noise immunity via CMOS input buffering and enables reset line arbitration in multi-controller systems. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar open-drain inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC05DR | Lower VCC range (1.65–5.5 V), faster tPLH/tPHL (≤16/13 ns @ 3.3 V), higher IOL (24 mA) | Better suited for 1.8 V/3.3 V-only systems; not rated for 6 V operation or –40°C to +125°C extended temp | Select when speed and low-voltage compatibility outweigh 6 V support and extended temperature needs. |
| MC74HC05ADR2G | Same logic function and SOIC-14 package; specified for –55°C to +125°C; slightly higher IOL (6 mA @ 4.5 V) | Qualified for military/aerospace use; tighter parametric tolerances but higher cost and longer lead times | Select when extended temperature qualification beyond commercial grade is mandatory for mission-critical hardware. |
Compared with SN74HC05DR, SN74LVC05DR offers superior speed and low-voltage operation but sacrifices 6 V tolerance and extended temperature range, while MC74HC05ADR2G provides broader temperature coverage and ruggedized specs at higher cost and reduced availability - making SN74HC05DR the optimal balance for industrial control and general-purpose open-drain inversion.

FAQ
What is the maximum sink current per output of the SN74HC05DR?
The SN74HC05DR supports a maximum output sink current of 4 mA per channel at VCC = 4.5 V while maintaining VOL ≤ 0.26 V (typical). Absolute maximum ratings allow 25 mA continuous, but sustained operation above 4 mA risks exceeding thermal limits and degrading reliability. Always verify external pull-up resistor value and ambient temperature in final layout.
Can SN74HC05DR outputs be directly connected together?
Yes - SN74HC05DR outputs can be safely wired together because they are open-drain and cannot source current. This creates a natural wired-AND function: the combined node is LOW if any output is active, and HIGH only when all are Hi-Z. Ensure a single external pull-up resistor is used and total sink current remains within device and PCB trace limits.
Does SN74HC05DR require external pull-up resistors on its outputs?
Yes, SN74HC05DR requires external pull-up resistors on all open-drain outputs to establish a valid HIGH logic level. Without them, outputs remain floating in Hi-Z state and cannot drive logic-high signals. Typical values range from 1 kΩ (for speed-critical 5 V buses) to 10 kΩ (for low-power 3.3 V interfaces), selected based on VOL, rise time, and bus capacitance.
What is the recommended operating voltage range for SN74HC05DR?
The SN74HC05DR is specified for reliable operation from 2 V to 6 V DC supply voltage. At 2 V, propagation delays increase (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 145/120 ns), while at 6 V, VOL rises slightly (≤0.33 V at 5.2 mA) but speed improves (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 25/18 ns). Use 4.5–5.5 V for optimal balance of speed, noise margin, and compatibility with legacy 5 V systems.
How should unused inputs on SN74HC05DR be handled?
Unused inputs on SN74HC05DR must be terminated to either VCC or GND - never left floating - to prevent oscillation, excess current draw, and undefined output states. A 10 kΩ pull-up or pull-down resistor is recommended for flexibility; direct connection is acceptable if the input state is fixed. This requirement stems from the high-impedance CMOS input structure and is critical for stable operation.
