The 74LS series of integrated circuits (ICs) was one of the most popular logic families of transistor-transistor logic (TTL) logic chips. 74LS series is a bipolar, low-power Schottky IC. 74LS06 Hex Inverter Buffer/Driver (Open Collector) features high-voltage, open-collector outputs to interface with(such as MOS), or for driving high-current loads, and also are characterized for use as inverter buffers for driving TTL inputs.
74LS06 Features
- Six Independent Hex Inverter Gates
- Open Collector Outputs Require Pull-Up Resistors
- Open Collector Type Suitable for Indicator Lamps and Relays
- Input Clamping Diodes
- Standard TTL Switching Voltages
