Nexperia USA Inc. 74ABT00PW,118

Overview

74ABT00PW from Nexperia is a quad 2-input NAND gate in TSSOP14 package, operating from 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply, with IOFF-enabled partial power-down protection, 2.0 ns typical propagation delay (tPHL), and -40 °C to +85 °C industrial temperature range - used for logic-level signal conditioning in bus interface and control circuitry.

For engineers reviewing the 74ABT00PW datasheet, 74ABT00PW pinout, 74ABT00PW application, or 74ABT00PW equivalent, this page delivers verified pin functions, real-world timing behavior under 5.0 V/25 °C and -40 °C to +85 °C conditions, IOFF leakage specs, and direct TTL-compatible interfacing capability without level-shifting.

Technical Context

The 74ABT00PW implements four independent NAND gates using BiCMOS process technology, combining bipolar speed and CMOS input impedance. Each gate features symmetrical HIGH/LOW propagation delays (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 4.1 ns / 3.4 ns over full temperature range) and guaranteed output skew ≤ 0.5 ns between any two outputs switching in the same direction.

Its IOFF circuitry actively disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, limiting power-off leakage current to ±100 μA while blocking backflow current - critical for hot-swap and multi-rail system designs. Input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) ensure robust compatibility with standard TTL logic families.

FAQ

Can 74ABT00PW operate reliably at 4.5 V minimum supply?

Yes. The device is fully characterized from 4.5 V to 5.5 V per Table 5. At VCC = 4.5 V, VOH ≥ 2.5 V (with IOH = −15 mA) and VOL ≤ 0.5 V (with IOL = 20 mA), meeting TTL output swing requirements. Propagation delay increases to max 4.1 ns (tPLH) and 3.4 ns (tPHL), remaining within specification.

Does IOFF function require external biasing or enable signals?

No. IOFF is fully automatic and internal: when VCC drops below ~0.8 V, the output drivers disable regardless of input states. No external control pins or pull-ups are needed. Output leakage remains ≤ ±100 μA even with inputs or outputs held at 4.5 V during power-down.

What is the maximum capacitive load the 74ABT00PW can drive while maintaining timing specs?

The datasheet specifies dynamic characteristics with CL = 50 pF (Table 8). While not explicitly rated beyond that, the 20 mA IOL and 15 mA IOH drive strength support stable edge rates into ≥ 75 pF loads at reduced speed. For >50 pF, verify timing margins using the test circuit in Figure 5 with RL = 500 Ω.

Is 74ABT00PW qualified for automotive applications?

No. This part is specified only for industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +85 °C) and carries no AEC-Q100 qualification. Nexperia explicitly states in Section 14 that non-automotive qualified products are not tested to automotive reliability or stress standards - use only in industrial, computing, or communications equipment.
