SN74LV32ADR Quad 2-Input Positive OR Gate – SOIC-14

Description

The SN74LV32ADR is a high-performance, low-voltage CMOS Quad 2-input positive OR gate. It is part of the LV (Low-Voltage) logic family, designed specifically for operation across a wide voltage range (typically 2V to 5.5V). This makes it highly versatile, allowing it to function reliably in both low-power 3.3V systems and standard 5V digital logic environments. It performs the standard Boolean OR function ($Y = A + B$), providing a HIGH output if any input is HIGH.

The device is engineered for low power consumption and high noise immunity, common to modern CMOS processes. Because of its wide voltage tolerance, it is a frequent choice for designers working on mixed-signal boards or portable, battery-powered electronics where supply voltage stability may vary.
