Product Overview
The CD4069UBM96 is a CMOS hex unbuffered inverter from Texas Instruments with 3V to 18V supply operation. The UB (unbuffered) designation means each inverter uses a single CMOS inverter stage rather than the multi-stage buffered output of the CD4069B. This provides higher gain at the threshold, making it suitable for linear amplifier and oscillator applications. The M96 suffix denotes SOIC-14 tape-and-reel packaging rated for -55°C to +125°C.
