Instructions for Using MC74HC04ADR2G MC74HC04ADR2

1. Power Supply:

   • Ensure the supply voltage (V_CC) is within the operating range of 2.0V to 6.0V.
   • Connect the ground (GND) pin to a stable 0V reference.

2. Input Signals:

   • For a valid low input (V_IL), the voltage should be below 0.8V when V_CC is between 4.5V and 5.5V.
   • For a valid high input (V_IH), the voltage should be above 2.0V when V_CC is between 4.5V and 5.5V.

3. Output Signals:

   • When the output is low (V_OL), the voltage will be between 0.1V and 0.2V with a load current of 4mA.
   • When the output is high (V_OH), the voltage will be between 4.4V and 5.0V with a load current of -0.4mA.

4. Propagation Delay:

   • The propagation delay time (t_pd) is typically 9ns at room temperature (25°C) and with a supply voltage between 4.5V and 5.5V.

5. Power Dissipation:

   • The maximum power dissipation per package is 300mW. Ensure that the device is not operated beyond this limit to avoid damage.

6. Handling:

   • Handle the IC with care to avoid static discharge which can damage the internal circuits.
   • Use appropriate ESD protection measures when handling and soldering the IC.

7. Mounting:

   • Follow standard surface mount technology (SMT) guidelines for mounting the IC on the PCB.
   • Ensure proper thermal management if the IC is expected to dissipate significant power.

8. Testing:

   • Verify the functionality of the IC by applying known input signals and measuring the corresponding output signals.
   • Use a logic analyzer or oscilloscope to check the propagation delay and signal integrity.

By following these instructions, you can ensure reliable operation of the MC74HC04ADR2G MC74HC04ADR2 hex inverter.
