Product details
Overview
74AUC1G240DBVRG4 from Texas Instruments is a single noninverting buffer/driver with 3-state output, designed for 1.65–1.95 V operation and 3.6-V I/O tolerance. It delivers ±8-mA drive at 1.8 V, achieves 2.5 ns max propagation delay, and supports partial-power-down via Ioff. It is used in low-voltage bus interface and level-shifting applications in portable and space-constrained systems.
For engineers reviewing the 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 datasheet, 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 pinout, 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 application, or 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its sub-1-V operability, 10-µA max ICC, 3-state control timing (ten/tdis), NanoFree™ package compatibility, and Ioff-enabled mixed-mode signal handling.
Technical Context
The 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 implements a single-channel noninverting buffer with active-low 3-state enable logic: output Y follows input A when OE is low, and enters high-impedance state when OE is high. Its design targets low-voltage core logic interfacing while maintaining robustness across mixed-supply domains.
It features Ioff circuitry that disables outputs during power-down to prevent backflow current, and supports operation from 0.8 V to 2.7 V VCC - though optimized for 1.65–1.95 V. Input thresholds scale with VCC (VIH = 0.65×VCC, VIL = 0.35×VCC), ensuring reliable switching across its full supply range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 0.8 V to 2.7 V - enables use in ultra-low-voltage systems and mixed-supply interfaces |
| Max tpd | 2.5 ns at 1.8 V, CL = 30 pF - supports high-speed data buffering in compact digital subsystems |
| Output Drive | ±8 mA at 1.8 V - sufficient to drive multiple 1.8-V CMOS loads without external termination |
| Ioff Current | ±10 µA at 2.7 V - ensures safe isolation during partial power-down in battery-backed or hot-swap systems |
| ICC (max) | 10 µA - minimizes quiescent power in always-on or standby logic paths |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buffer/driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1G240DBVR | Higher VCC min (1.65 V), lower drive (±24 mA at 3.3 V), no sub-1-V operation | Better suited for 3.3-V systems; lacks 0.8–1.1 V operability and NanoFree™ footprint | Select when operating above 1.65 V and requiring higher drive or legacy LVC compatibility |
| 74AUP1G240GW,125 | NXP variant: 0.8–3.6 V range, 3.7 ns tpd at 1.2 V, 1.2-mm × 1.0-mm XSON package | Similar low-V performance but different pinout (pin 1 = GND); not pin-compatible with DBV | Consider for space-constrained layouts where XSON thermal profile is preferred over SOT-23 |
Compared with SN74LVC1G240DBVR and 74AUP1G240GW,125, the 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 uniquely combines sub-1-V operation, NanoFree™ footprint, and 2.5 ns speed at 1.8 V - making it optimal for next-generation portable and energy-sensitive designs where voltage scaling and board area are primary constraints.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage at which 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 guarantees functional operation?
The 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 is fully specified from 0.8 V to 2.7 V VCC, with guaranteed operation - including input threshold tracking and output drive - down to 0.8 V. While optimized for 1.65–1.95 V, its sub-1-V capability is validated per the SCES384I datasheet's recommended operating conditions and electrical characteristics tables.
Does 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 support true bidirectional data flow?
No - the 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 is a unidirectional noninverting buffer with 3-state output. It does not implement automatic direction control or bus transceiver logic. For bidirectional applications, two devices or a dedicated transceiver like SN74AUC245 must be used with external OE coordination.
Can 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 be used to translate between 1.2-V and 3.3-V logic levels?
Yes - the 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 supports 3.6-V I/O tolerance, meaning its inputs and outputs withstand up to 3.6 V regardless of VCC. When powered from 1.2 V, it safely accepts 3.3-V inputs and drives 3.3-V-tolerant loads, provided output current remains within ±8 mA limits at that VCC.
What is the purpose of the Ioff feature in 74AUC1G240DBVRG4, and how does it affect system design?
The Ioff feature disables all outputs when VCC = 0 V, limiting off-state leakage to ±10 µA. This prevents damaging back-current flow from live I/O lines into a powered-down supply rail - essential for hot-swap, battery-isolation, and partial-power-down architectures. Designers can safely leave OE floating or tied high without risk of latch-up or excessive current draw.
Is the 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 pin-compatible with other SOT-23 packaged logic buffers from Texas Instruments?
Yes - the 74AUC1G240DBVRG4 uses standard SOT-23 (DBV) 5-pin pinout (A-OE-GND-Y-VCC), matching SN74LVC1G240DBVR, SN74AHC1G240DBVR, and most TI single-gate SOT-23 logic devices. This enables drop-in replacement in existing layouts where voltage and timing requirements align.
