SN74LS04N

### SN74LS04N Overview

1. **Type**: Hex Inverter IC, containing six independent NOT gates (inverters) in a single package.

2. **Technology**: Part of the 74LS series of TTL logic devices, offering low power consumption and fast switching times.

3. **Functionality**: Each inverter takes a single input signal and outputs its logical complement, effectively flipping the input signal.

### Typical Uses:

– **Digital Logic Circuits**: Implements basic logic functions and signal inversion in digital systems.

– **Oscillator Circuits**: Forms part of oscillator circuits by inverting and feeding back signals.

– **Signal Conditioning**: Adjusts signal levels and provides clean, inverted outputs for further processing in digital electronics.
