74HC4050 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 74HC4050 from STMicroelectronics is a high-speed Si-gate CMOS device functioning as a hex high-to-low level shifter. It offers six non-inverting buffers with a modified input protection structure, allowing input voltages up to 15V while operating from a low voltage power supply. This makes it suitable for converting higher voltage logic levels, such as 15V from the '4000B' series, down to 2V logic levels.

Key electrical characteristics include a typical propagation delay of 7 ns (nA to nY) at a 15 pF load and 5V VCC. The input capacitance is typically 3.5 pF, and the power dissipation capacitance per buffer is 14 pF. The device has standard output capability and belongs to the SSI ICC category.

Designed for applications requiring logic level translation, the 74HC4050 is pin-compatible with the '4050' of the '4000B' series and specified in compliance with JEDEC standard no. 7A. Its ability to convert high logic levels to low logic levels while operating from a low voltage power supply makes it a versatile component for various digital interface designs.
