SN74HC14N
Texas InstrumentsSN74HC14N is a Texas Instruments 6-channel 2 V to 6 V hex Schmitt-trigger inverter in PDIP-14 — for cleaning up noisy signals on breadboards and prototypes: button debouncing, slow-edge squaring and simple oscillators. The Schmitt hysteresis is the selection point: reliable switching on slow or noisy inputs where plain inverters chatter. Selection advice: the N suffix denotes PDIP-14 in tube — the hand-solder-friendly variant; for SMT, the D (SOIC) or PW (TSSOP) variants are the pick. 20 µA max quiescent supply current (TI parametric max over −40 to +85 °C) and fast Schmitt-trigger switching (see the TI Rev. L datasheet switching table for tpd vs VCC/CL) suit battery-powered glue logic. TI lists this part as ACTIVE. Parameters verified against the TI official product page.

SN74HC14N FAQ
What should I check before substituting SN74HC14N with another Hex Schmitt-trigger inverter?
Match the full ordering code, not the series name: package (PDIP-14), temperature grade and packing all ride on the suffixes. A same-series code in a different package is a different orderable device, so confirm the substitute against the Texas Instruments datasheet before changing the BOM.
