74HC03 Quad 2-Input NAND Gate With Open Drain Outputs DIP-14

This device contains four independent 2-input NAND gates. A key feature of this chip is its open-drain outputs , which allows the output to sink current to ground but not source current. This makes it highly versatile for applications like level shifting or creating wired-AND logic.

Features

• Wide Operating Voltage Range: 2 V to 6 V
• Open-Drain Outputs: Allows for flexible use in mixed-voltage systems and wired-AND configurations.
• Low Power Consumption: 20-μΑ maximum I_CC
• Good Performance: Typical t_pd = 8 ns at 5 V
• Low Input Current: 1 µA maximum
• Drive Capability:
  • Outputs can drive up to 10 LSTTL loads
  • ±4-mA output drive at 5 V
