NTE Electronics, Inc. Gates and Inverters NTE7430

The NTE7430 is an integrated circuit featuring a single 8-input positive NAND gate, packaged in a 14-lead plastic DIP format. It operates with a supply voltage range of 4.75V to 5.25V and is designed for a temperature range of 0¬8C to +70¬8C. The device has a maximum input voltage of 5.5V and can handle output currents of up to 16mA for low-level outputs and -0.4mA for high-level outputs. In terms of electrical characteristics, the NTE7430 provides a high-level output voltage ranging from 2.4V to 3.4V and a low-level output voltage between 0.2V and 0.4V. The propagation delay times from any input to the output are specified as 13 to 22 ns for low-to-high transitions and 8 to 15 ns for high-to-low transitions, making it suitable for applications requiring fast switching. The logic function of the NTE7430 is defined such that when all inputs are high, the output is low, and if one or more inputs are low, the output is high. This device is ideal for digital logic applications where multiple inputs need to be combined into a single output.
