HEX INVERTERS WITH OPEN-COLLECTOR OUTPUTS

These devices SN54ALS05A SN74ALS05A contain six independent hex inverters with open-collector outputs. They perform the Boolean function Y = A. The open-collector outputs require pullup resistors to perform correctly. These outputs CAN be con- nected to other open-collector outputs to implement active-low wired-OR or active-high wired-AND functions. Open-collector devices are often used to generate higher VOH levels. The SN54ALS05A is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of 55C to 125C. The SN74ALS05A is characterized for operation from 0C to 70C. By Texas Instruments
