- HC/UH high-speed CMOS family with 50 pF load capacitance rating for stable fast switching across standard 5 V logic applications
- Pb-free compliant (JESD-609 e4) with true single-input inversion per gate for straightforward signal polarity correction and clock buffering
Applications
The CD74HC04EE4 is used for signal inversion, clock buffering, and logic level polarity correction in digital systems across consumer electronics, industrial controls, and embedded computing boards. Its 6-gate structure allows a single IC to simultaneously invert multiple address lines, control signals, or clock distribution paths on a PCB. Engineers commonly use this device in oscillator circuits, reset logic, and bus interface designs where reliable 5 V CMOS inversion is required.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many inverter gates does the CD74HC04EE4 contain and what is the input configuration per gate?
The CD74HC04EE4 contains 6 independent inverter gates, each with a single 1-bit input and push-pull output. All 6 gates share the same 14-pin PDIP package, enabling simultaneous inversion of 6 separate logic signals with one IC.
What output current can the CD74HC04EE4 sink and what load capacitance is it rated for?
The CD74HC04EE4 can sink a maximum low-level output current (I_OL) of 4 mA and is rated for a load capacitance of 50 pF per output. These parameters set the device's drive strength limits for CMOS load applications in standard 5 V logic designs.
For what clock buffering scenario is the CD74HC04EE4 especially well suited?
Because the CD74HC04EE4 has 6 inverters, a designer can cascade 2 inverters per clock path to create 3 non-inverting clock buffers with matched delay, distributing a single clock to 3 destinations while maintaining signal integrity within a 50 pF capacitive load budget.
How does the PDIP package of CD74HC04EE4 benefit prototyping compared to SOIC versions?
The 14-pin PDIP package of the CD74HC04EE4 is compatible with standard 0.1-inch pitch breadboards and DIP sockets, making it straightforward to prototype inverter and buffer circuits without SMT reflow equipment. This is advantageous in lab and low-volume development settings.
