The VCX132 contains four 2-input NAND gates with Schmitt Trigger Inputs. The pin configuration and function are the same as the VCX00 except the inputs have hysteresis between the positive-going and negative-going input thresholds. This hysteresis is useful for transforming slowly switching input signals into sharply defined, jitter-free output signals. This product should be used where noise margin greater than that of conventional gates is required. The VCX132 is designed for low voltage (1.65V to 3.6V) VCC applications with I/O compatibility up to 3.6V. This product is fabricated with an advanced CMOS technology to achieve high-speed operation while maintaining low CMOS power dissipation.
