74HC05 Logic Gate
KSh 80.00
74HC05 hex inverter chip (74HC family) for inverting signals, logic circuits and digital electronics practicals.
In stock
The 74HC05 is a hex inverter with open-drain outputs from the 74HC high-speed CMOS logic family.
Key features
- Six independent inverters (NOT gates): a HIGH input gives a LOW output and vice versa
- Open-drain outputs: each output needs a pull-up resistor to VCC
- Outputs can be wired together (wired-AND) or pulled up to a different voltage
- 74HC CMOS: low power use and good noise immunity
- Works from a 2V-6V supply (typical for 74HC)
Specifications
| Function | Hex inverter with open-drain outputs |
|---|---|
| Logic family | 74HC (high-speed CMOS) |
| Gates | 6 inverters |
| Output type | Open-drain |
| Supply voltage | 2V-6V (typical for 74HC) |
Typical uses
- Logic inversion (NOT operations)
- Wired-AND and shared signal lines
- Driving LEDs and simple level conversion
Tip: Without a pull-up resistor the outputs can only pull LOW. A 4.7k-10k resistor to VCC is a common starting point.
