Product Description

74HC32 Quad 2-Input OR Logic Gate IC

High-Speed CMOS OR Gate for Versatile Digital Logic Applications

The 74HC32 is a highspeed CMOS logic IC featuring four independent 2input OR gates. The OR gate produces a HIGH output when one or both inputs are HIGH, and a LOW output only when all inputs are LOW. This fundamental logic function is essential for signal routing, decision-making circuits, enable/disable control, and boolean logic operations in digital systems.

Operating voltage range: 2.0V to 6.0V
Propagation delay: 8ns typical at 5V
Output drive capability: ±5.2mA at 6V
Do not exceed 7.0V supply voltage - permanent damage may occur
Unused inputs must be tied to VCC or GND - floating inputs can cause excessive power consumption and oscillation

Package Includes

  1. 1x 74HC32 Logic IC (Package: DIP14, SOIC14, or TSSOP-14 per variant)
  2. Anti-static packaging for safe delivery
For active-low enable signals, invert inputs or outputs as needed
Use OR gate as a signal combiner to merge multiple triggers into one output
This IC is also available as 74HCT32 for TTL-compatible input levels
OR gate with one input tied LOW acts as a noninverting buffer (passthrough)
OR gate with one input tied HIGH produces a constant HIGH output
Multiple OR gates can be cascaded for wide-input OR functions
Never leave inputs floating use pullup or pull-down resistors
ESD sensitive device - use proper handling procedures
Ensure decoupling capacitor (0.1µF) is placed near VCC pin
