GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 74HC/HCT7404 are high-speed Si-gate CMOS devices specified in compliance with JEDEC standard no.7A.
The “7404” is an expandable, First-In First-Out (FIFO) memory organized as 64 words by 5 bits. A guaranteed
15 MHz data-rate makes it ideal for high-speed applications. A higher data-rate can be obtained in applications where the status flags are not used (burst-mode).

FEATURES
• Synchronous or asynchronous operation
• 3-state outputs
• 30 MHz (typical) shift-in and shift-out rates
• Readily expandable in word and bit dimensions
• Pinning arranged for easy board layout: input pins directly opposite output pins
• Output capability: driver (8 mA)
• ICC category: LSI.

APPLICATIONS
• High-speed disc or tape controller
• Communications buffer.
