Nexperia USA Inc. 74ALVC04PW,112

Overview

74ALVC04PW,112 from Nexperia is a hex inverter IC with Schmitt-trigger inputs, IOFF partial power-down capability, 1.65 V to 3.6 V supply range, -40 °C to +125 °C operating temperature, and TSSOP14 (SOT402-1) package. It enables robust signal inversion in mixed-voltage digital interfaces, such as level-shifting between 1.8 V and 3.3 V logic domains in industrial control I/O modules.

For engineers reviewing the 74ALVC04PW,112 datasheet, 74ALVC04PW,112 pinout, 74ALVC04PW,112 application, or 74ALVC04PW,112 equivalent, this device is selected for its overvoltage-tolerant 3.6 V inputs, sub-3.2 ns propagation delay at 3.0–3.6 V, ±24 mA output drive, IOFF-enabled hot-swap compatibility, and JEDEC-compliant ESD robustness (HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V).

Technical Context

The 74ALVC04PW,112 implements six independent CMOS inverters, each with Schmitt-trigger input thresholds enabling noise immunity against slow-rising signals (e.g., mechanical switch debouncing or RC-filtered sensor outputs). Its IOFF circuit actively disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, blocking backflow current during live insertion or partial system power-down.

It complies with JEDEC standards JESD8-7 (1.65–1.95 V), JESD8-5 (2.3–2.7 V), and JESD8C/JESD36 (2.7–3.6 V), and supports direct TTL-level interfacing across its full voltage range. Static input leakage remains ≤±0.1 μA at 3.6 V, while dynamic power dissipation per inverter is 26 pF at 3.3 V.

FAQ

Does the 74ALVC04PW,112 support true bidirectional operation?

No. The 74ALVC04PW,112 is a unidirectional hex inverter with fixed input (A) and output (Y) terminals per channel. It does not implement bus transceiver functionality, direction control, or automatic bidirectional sensing. Each inverter operates strictly from input to output with no feedback path or configurable I/O mode.

Can the IOFF feature be used with VCC = 0 V while inputs are held at 3.6 V?

Yes. Per datasheet Section 7 (Limiting Values) and Section 8 (Recommended Operating Conditions), the IOFF circuit activates when VCC = 0 V, disabling outputs and limiting input-to-output leakage to ≤±10 μA even with VI = 3.6 V. This meets JESD78 Class II.A latch-up immunity and prevents backfeed damage during hot-swap events.

What is the maximum capacitive load the 74ALVC04PW,112 can drive while maintaining specified tpd?

The datasheet specifies tpd under 30–50 pF load conditions (Table 9). While the device can drive >100 pF, propagation delay increases nonlinearly beyond 50 pF due to output impedance interaction. For designs requiring <3.2 ns tpd at 3.3 V, keep total load (including trace and probe capacitance) ≤50 pF per output.

Is the TSSOP14 package (SOT402-1) RoHS and REACH compliant?

Yes. Nexperia confirms the 74ALVC04PW,112 in SOT402-1 packaging meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, with lead-free terminations and halogen-free molding compound. Full compliance documentation is available in Nexperia's Product Change Notification (PCN) #PCN-2022-008.
