Product details
Overview
SN74LS07NSR from Texas Instruments is a hex buffer/driver IC with six independent open-collector outputs, rated for 30 V sink voltage and 40 mA per output, designed to interface TTL logic with higher-voltage loads such as relays, lamps, or MOS inputs in industrial control and legacy audio/video systems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LS07NSR datasheet, SN74LS07NSR pinout, SN74LS07NSR application, or SN74LS07NSR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 5-V TTL-compatible inputs, 30-V open-collector output tolerance, 12 ns typical propagation delay, input clamping diodes for transmission-line suppression, and SO (SOP-14) package compatibility with automated assembly.
Technical Context
The SN74LS07NSR implements six identical non-inverting buffer stages, each with an open-collector NPN output stage enabling wired-OR logic and high-voltage level translation. Its inputs accept 5.25 V maximum, allowing direct interfacing with LVTTL and CMOS sources without external level shifters.
Each output operates as a current-sinking switch with guaranteed 40 mA sink capability at VO ≤ 0.7 V and 30 V maximum off-state voltage rating. Input clamping diodes suppress ringing on long traces, reducing layout sensitivity in mixed-signal environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.75–5.25 V - Ensures stable operation across standard 5-V TTL rails with ±5% tolerance. |
| Output Voltage Rating | 30 V - Supports direct driving of 24-V industrial indicators, solenoids, and relay coils without external transistors. |
| Sink Current per Output | 40 mA - Sufficient to drive multiple TTL inputs or LEDs with series resistors down to ~270 Ω at 5 V. |
| Propagation Delay | 12 ns typical - Enables reliable timing in sub-10-MHz digital control paths with predictable setup/hold margins. |
| Input Clamp Diodes | Integrated - Eliminates need for external Schottky clamps on long PCB traces, simplifying EMI-prone interconnects. |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +70°C - Qualified for commercial-grade embedded systems including AV receivers and SSD power controllers. |
| Power Dissipation | 140 mW typical - Allows full six-channel operation in SO-14 package without forced airflow or heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
SN74LS07NSR uses a 14-pin small-outline package (SOP-14, TI drawing NS), body size 10.30 mm × 5.30 mm, 1.75 mm max height, with gull-wing leads and pin 1 index area marked on top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 3, 5, 9, 11, 13 (1A–6A) | Input | Active-high TTL-compatible inputs; internally clamped to VCC and GND to suppress reflections. |
| 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 (1Y–6Y) | Open-collector Output | Current-sinking outputs requiring external pull-up; support wired-AND/OR logic and 30-V load switching. |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference for all inputs, outputs, and internal circuitry; must be low-impedance connection. |
| 14 | VCC | +5 V supply rail; requires local 0.1-µF bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High-voltage open-collector outputs | 30 V rating enables direct interface with 24-V industrial control circuits without level-shifting components. |
| TTL-to-MOS level translation | 5.25 V-tolerant inputs accept LVTTL/CMOS signals while sinking up to 40 mA into 30-V loads. |
| Input clamping diodes | Minimizes signal overshoot/ringing on long traces, reducing need for termination resistors in backplane designs. |
| Hex channel integration | Six independent buffers in one SO-14 package reduce board space vs discrete transistor solutions for multi-load driving. |
| Wired-logic compatibility | Open-collector outputs allow shared pull-up bus for active-low OR or active-high AND functions in control logic. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar hex buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LS06NSR | Identical pinout and electrical specs but lacks input clamping diodes; lower ESD robustness. | Less suitable for long-trace or noisy environments where transmission-line effects dominate. | Select SN74LS07NSR when trace lengths exceed 10 cm or system EMI requirements are stringent. |
| SN74HCT07DR | CMOS version with 5-V tolerant inputs, 6-mA sink current, and 10 ns propagation delay; no 30-V output rating. | Restricted to 5-V logic-level loads only; unsuitable for 24-V relay or lamp driving. | Choose SN74LS07NSR when interfacing with >5-V external circuits; choose SN74HCT07DR only for pure 5-V TTL-to-CMOS translation. |
Compared with SN74LS06NSR, SN74LS07NSR adds input clamping for improved signal integrity; compared with SN74HCT07DR, it trades lower power for higher voltage drive capability-making SN74LS07NSR the sole option for 30-V open-collector applications in this family.

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage rating for SN74LS07NSR?
The SN74LS07NSR has a maximum output voltage rating of 30 V, meaning each open-collector output can safely remain in the off state while biased up to 30 V relative to GND. This allows direct connection to 24-V industrial loads without external protection components, provided sink current remains within the 40 mA limit per output.
Can SN74LS07NSR drive LEDs directly?
Yes, SN74LS07NSR can drive LEDs directly by sinking current through the LED-anode-to-VCC path. With a 40 mA maximum sink current and 0.7 V typical VOL, it supports common red/green/yellow LEDs using a series resistor calculated for desired brightness-for example, ~270 Ω for 15 mA at 5 V. Always verify forward voltage and thermal derating in high-density layouts.
Is SN74LS07NSR compatible with 3.3-V logic inputs?
Yes, SN74LS07NSR accepts 3.3-V logic inputs reliably: its VIL is 0.8 V max and VIH is 2.0 V min under recommended conditions, and inputs are overvoltage tolerant up to 5.25 V. This makes SN74LS07NSR suitable for interfacing LVTTL or 3.3-V microcontrollers to 5-V or higher-voltage peripherals without level shifters.
Does SN74LS07NSR require external pull-up resistors on its outputs?
Yes, SN74LS07NSR outputs are open-collector and require external pull-up resistors to define the high logic state. The value depends on load voltage and speed requirements-for 5-V systems, 1–10 kΩ is typical; for 24-V loads, higher values (e.g., 10–47 kΩ) limit power dissipation while maintaining adequate rise time. No internal pull-ups exist.
What is the thermal performance of SN74LS07NSR in its SO package?
SN74LS07NSR in the SO-14 (NS) package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 82.8 °C/W. At 140 mW typical power dissipation and 25°C ambient, junction temperature rises ~11.6°C-well within the 150°C absolute maximum. For continuous 40 mA sink on all six channels, ensure adequate PCB copper area and avoid stacking heat-generating components nearby.
