SN74ACT00NG4 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SN74ACT00NG4 is a NAND Gate IC with 4 channels and 2 inputs per channel, packaged in a 14-PDIP configuration. This component is classified as discontinued at DiGi Electronics, which necessitates identification of equivalent substitute parts for ongoing design requirements and procurement needs. The part remains available in inventory (962 Pcs New Original In Stock), but active alternatives should be evaluated for new designs and long-term supply chain planning.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SN74ACT00NG4 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Logic Type: NAND Gate (4 channels, 2 inputs per channel)
  • Voltage Supply Range: 4.5V ~ 5.5V
  • Current Specifications: Quiescent current 2 µA maximum; output drive 24mA high and low
  • Input Logic Levels: Low 0.8V, High 2V
  • Propagation Delay: 9ns @ 5V, 50pF
  • Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C
  • Package Configuration: 14-DIP through-hole mounting
  • Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

The SN74ACT00N meets all these parameters and is classified as an active product with manufacturer recommended status, making it a direct functional and electrical equivalent.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SN74ACT00N is the direct substitute for the SN74ACT00NG4. Both parts are manufactured by Texas Instruments and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is product status: the SN74ACT00NG4 is discontinued at DiGi Electronics, while the SN74ACT00N maintains active status with higher inventory availability (2189 Pcs New Original In Stock versus 962 Pcs for the original part).

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment. The SN74ACT00N is packaged in tube format, whereas the SN74ACT00NG4 packaging format is not specified in the provided data. Pin-for-pin compatibility and identical functional performance are confirmed across all electrical parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the SN74ACT00NG4 and SN74ACT00N pin-for-pin compatible?

A: Yes. Both parts are 14-DIP through-hole packages with identical pin configurations and electrical characteristics. Direct substitution is possible without circuit modification.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is product status and packaging format. The SN74ACT00NG4 is discontinued at DiGi Electronics, while the SN74ACT00N is an active product. The SN74ACT00N is supplied in tube packaging. All electrical and functional specifications are identical.

Q: Can I use the SN74ACT00N in a design originally specified for the SN74ACT00NG4?

A: Yes. The SN74ACT00N is a direct functional and electrical equivalent. No design changes are required for substitution.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Regulatory status is identical.

Q: What are the key electrical parameters that define substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution is determined by matching logic type (NAND Gate, 4 channels, 2 inputs), supply voltage range (4.5V ~ 5.5V), output drive current (24mA), propagation delay (9ns @ 5V, 50pF), and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C). The SN74ACT00N meets all these criteria.
