The SN74AHC14DRG4 is widely used in various electronic applications, including but not limited to:

1. Signal conditioning: It can be used to clean up noisy signals by converting them into stable digital signals.
2. Oscillators: It can be used to generate square wave oscillations in timing circuits.
3. Level shifting: It can be used to shift logic levels between different voltage domains.
4. Pulse shaping: It can be used to shape input pulses and eliminate noise or unwanted fluctuations.
5. Logic gates: It can be used as an inverter in logic gate circuits.
