Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SN74AS804BN be used as a direct replacement for the DM74AS804BN?

A: Yes. The SN74AS804BN is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications, package configuration, and pinout. Direct substitution is supported without circuit modifications.

Q: Are there any differences in supply voltage requirements?

A: No. Both parts operate within the same supply voltage range of 4.5V ~ 5.5V with identical output current ratings and input logic level thresholds.

Q: What is the significance of the DM74AS804BN being obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the DM74AS804BN is no longer manufactured by onsemi. The SN74AS804BN from Texas Instruments provides continued access to equivalent functionality for existing designs and new applications.

Q: Are the propagation delay characteristics identical?

A: Yes. Both parts specify a maximum propagation delay of 4ns at 5V with a 50pF load, ensuring equivalent timing performance in logic circuits.

Q: Does the package type affect substitution compatibility?

A: No. Both parts use the identical 20-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) through-hole package, enabling direct board-level substitution without PCB redesign.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the substitute part?

A: The SN74AS804BN carries ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected certifications, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components.
