This IC provides two independent 1-input gates with high noise immunity. Its maximum total power dissipation is 400mW and its operating temperature range extends from -40°C to +125°C. The 74HCT1G04GV,125 IC is a very low-power form of the 7400 IC series; thus, it is a great choice for low-power applications.

Applications

The 74HCT1G04GV,125 IC is typically used in the following applications:

• Data buffering.Buffers are used in systems to improve data transfer between systems, thus improving the overall system performance.
• Voltage level shifting.The 74HCT1G04GV,125 IC is often used for level shifting signals from one voltage level to another.
• Digital noise reduction.The high noise immunity of the IC makes it ideal for reducing noise from digital signals.

Working Principle

The 74HCT1G04GV,125 IC contains two separate logic gates that are connected in series, one logic gate for the input, and one for the output. Each logic gate consists of an input and an output. In normal operation, a logic “1” is applied to the input of the first logic gate. If the input is a logic “1”, the output of the first logic gate will also be a logic “1”, which is then applied to the input of the second logic gate. The output of the second logic gate is then the inverted version of the input. In other words, if the input is a logic “1”, the output will be a logic “0” and vice versa.

Conclusion

The 74HCT1G04GV,125 IC from NXP Semiconductor is a dual inverter IC with high noise immunity and very low power consumption. It is suitable for a variety of applications including data buffering, voltage level shifting, and digital noise reduction. The working principle of the IC is that it consists of two logic gates connected in series, with the output of the first gate being applied to the input of the second one; thus resulting in an inverted version of the input signal.
