Overview
74AHC04BQ-Q100 from Nexperia is an automotive-grade hex inverter IC (CMOS logic) delivering six independent high-speed inverting buffers with balanced propagation delays, 5.5 V absolute max supply rating, and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification for operation from −40 °C to +125 °C - used in engine control unit signal conditioning and CAN bus interface level translation.
For engineers reviewing the 74AHC04BQ-Q100 datasheet, 74AHC04BQ-Q100 pinout, 74AHC04BQ-Q100 application, or 74AHC04BQ-Q100 equivalent, key selection criteria include CMOS input compatibility, 7 ns typical propagation delay at 5 V/50 pF, DHVQFN14 thermal performance, and automotive temperature compliance.
Technical Context
This device implements six independent CMOS inverter stages in a single monolithic silicon gate structure, with inputs tolerant up to 7.0 V regardless of VCC level and outputs capable of ±25 mA drive. It adheres to JEDEC 7-A and supports both 3.3 V and 5 V logic systems via its rail-to-rail input voltage acceptance.
The DHVQFN14 package (SOT762-1) features side-wettable flanks for AOI-compatible solder joint inspection and achieves 9.6 mW/K thermal derating above 98 °C - critical for under-hood automotive placement where ambient thermal transients exceed 125 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

FAQ
Is 74AHC04BQ-Q100 pin-compatible with standard 74AHC04 packages?
Yes - it shares identical pin functions and numbering with SO14 (SOT108-1) and TSSOP14 (SOT402-1) variants, though physical layout differs due to DHVQFN14's leadless construction and terminal arrangement. PCB footprint must match SOT762-1 dimensions (2.5 × 3.0 mm) and thermal pad requirements.
Can 74AHC04BQ-Q100 drive a 50 pF capacitive load at 10 MHz?
Yes - with tpd = 7.0 ns (typical) and CPD = 13.5 pF, it delivers reliable switching into 50 pF loads at frequencies up to 25 MHz. At 10 MHz, dynamic power remains below 0.8 mW (VCC = 5 V), well within its 500 mW thermal limit at 125 °C ambient.
What is the function of the exposed pad (terminal 13) in the DHVQFN14 package?
Terminal 13 is a non-electrical thermal pad. It has no internal connection and may be left floating or soldered to a GND plane solely for thermal conduction. If connected to GND, the land must remain electrically isolated from signal traces to avoid parasitic coupling.
Does 74AHC04BQ-Q100 support mixed-voltage operation between input and supply rails?
Yes - inputs tolerate −0.5 V to +7.0 V independently of VCC (2.0–5.5 V), enabling safe interfacing with higher-voltage sensors or legacy buses without level shifters. However, output swing remains rail-referenced (VOH ≈ VCC, VOL ≈ GND).
