Brief Description

The IC 4049 consists of six NOT gate inside it and having a high input supply voltage with a maximum current rating of 1mA at 18v. 4049 IC is capable to drive two TTL loads. The main use of this IC is to create a voltage multiplier circuit by simply adding resistor, capacitor, and diode with it. It also used for the conversion of high logic levels to low. Also you can drive two TTL loads with it. The operating temperature of the IC is -40 to +85 °C. The IC is having high current sink as the input voltage the increase the output current sink value will increase, at 15v the current sink value is 26mA.

 

Where to use?

4049 IC used for many applications; basically it help in creating voltage multiplier circuit and also one can create a square wave oscillator circuit through it. The IC is also useful in getting inverting output as it contains NOT gate inside it.
