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. 74LS14 Hex Inverter Schmitt Trigger functions as an inverter. However, because of the Schmitt-Trigger action, they have different input threshold levels for positive-going (VT+) and negative-going (VT– ) signals

74LS14 Features
- Six Independent INVERT Gates
- Standard Pin Configuration
- Fast Switching Times
- Operating Temperature up to 70°C
- Standard TTL Switching Voltages
