Overview
74AUP1Z04GW/C125 from NXP Semiconductors is a low-power crystal oscillator driver IC integrating dual inverters (74AUP1GU04 + 74AUP1G04), enable control, and internal bias/pull-up resistors. It operates from 0.8 V to 3.6 V, delivers propagation delays as low as 0.7 ns (X1→X2, VCC = 3.0–3.6 V, CL = 5 pF), features IOFF for partial power-down, and supports −40 °C to +125 °C operation in SC-88 (SOT363) package - optimized for compact, stable clock generation in portable and automotive timing systems.
For engineers reviewing the 74AUP1Z04GW/C125 datasheet, 74AUP1Z04GW/C125 pinout, 74AUP1Z04GW/C125 application, or 74AUP1Z04GW/C125 equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated Rbias (~1.62 MΩ typ), Schmitt-trigger EN input tolerance across full VCC range, IOFF-enabled Y-output isolation during power-down, and verified performance in Pierce oscillator topologies with load capacitance up to 30 pF.
Technical Context
The 74AUP1Z04GW/C125 implements a two-stage inverter-based Pierce oscillator core: the first stage (X1→X2) provides gain and phase inversion, while the second stage (X2→Y) buffers and isolates the output. Its internal Rbias sets the inverter's DC bias point near mid-supply to maximize linear-region gain, and the dedicated EN input (active LOW, Schmitt-triggered) controls oscillator enable/disable with X1 pulled HIGH via internal RPU when disabled.
IOFF circuitry actively disables output Y during VCC = 0 V, limiting backflow current to ±0.75 µA max, enabling safe partial power-down in mixed-voltage systems. The device's dynamic characteristics are specified across VCC = 0.8–3.6 V and Tamb = −40 °C to +125 °C, with propagation delay (X1→Y) ranging from 1.4 ns to 6.9 ns depending on VCC and CL (5–30 pF).
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
74AUP1Z04GW/C125 uses the SC-88 (SOT363) plastic surface-mounted package: 6-lead, 2.2 mm × 1.8 mm × 1.1 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, pin 1 indicator at lower-left corner below marking code "a4".
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (EN) | Enable input (active LOW) | Schmitt-triggered control signal; drives device into low-power disable mode when HIGH, pulling X1 HIGH via internal RPU. |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | 0 V return path for all internal circuits and I/O; must be low-impedance for stable oscillator operation. |
| 3 (X1) | Inverter input | Primary crystal node connection; interfaces directly with one terminal of quartz resonator in Pierce configuration. |
| 4 (X2) | Inverter output | Feedback path to crystal; forms gain stage with X1; requires external C1/C2 load capacitors per crystal spec. |
| 5 (VCC) | Supply voltage | Power rail for both inverter stages and bias network; decoupling capacitor required near pin for noise immunity. |
| 6 (Y) | Buffered output | Isolated clock output with IOFF protection; drives downstream logic or clock distribution without loading oscillator core. |

FAQ
What is the function of the EN pin on the 74AUP1Z04GW/C125?
The EN pin on the 74AUP1Z04GW/C125 is an active-LOW enable input with Schmitt-trigger action. When driven HIGH, it places the device in low-power disable mode: X1 is pulled HIGH via internal RPU, X2 is set LOW, and Y is driven HIGH. This state reduces ICC to ≤75 µA and eliminates crystal oscillation while maintaining safe bias conditions. The Schmitt trigger ensures reliable switching even with slow-rising/falling control signals across the full 0.8–3.6 V VCC range.
How does the 74AUP1Z04GW/C125 support partial power-down in system designs?
The 74AUP1Z04GW/C125 supports partial power-down via its IOFF circuitry on output Y. When VCC = 0 V, the IOFF feature disables the Y output stage, limiting leakage current to ±0.75 µA maximum regardless of voltage applied to Y or other pins. This prevents damaging backflow current into the powered-down device from live system buses, enabling safe integration in multi-rail architectures where subsystems power up/down independently - a critical capability for automotive domain controllers and industrial safety PLCs.
What crystal load capacitance range is compatible with the 74AUP1Z04GW/C125?
The 74AUP1Z04GW/C125 is validated for use with crystals requiring load capacitances from 5 pF to 30 pF, as confirmed by dynamic characterization up to CL = 30 pF in the datasheet. Its low input capacitance (1.3 pF at X1) and stable Rbias (1.07–3.11 MΩ) allow precise tuning using standard series C1/C2 networks. Designers should calculate C1 and C2 per CL = (C1×C2)/(C1+C2) + Cs, where Cs = 1.5 pF (input capacitance of X2), to match the crystal manufacturer's specified CL value - ensuring reliable startup and frequency accuracy across −40 °C to +125 °C.
Does the 74AUP1Z04GW/C125 require external bias resistors for crystal operation?
No, the 74AUP1Z04GW/C125 does not require external bias resistors. It integrates both Rbias (1.07–3.11 MΩ) between X2 and GND to set the inverter's DC operating point near mid-supply, and RPU (pull-up) from X1 to VCC for disable-mode biasing. These internal resistors eliminate the need for discrete components typically used in Pierce oscillators, reducing BOM count by two parts, minimizing layout sensitivity, and improving long-term stability - especially under temperature variation where external resistor drift would degrade frequency accuracy.
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the 74AUP1Z04GW/C125 in crystal oscillator applications?
The 74AUP1Z04GW/C125 is characterized for crystal oscillator operation up to 20 MHz, as validated by NXP's application documentation and dynamic testing across VCC = 0.8–3.6 V and Tamb = −40 °C to +125 °C. Its propagation delay (X1→X2) remains below 2.0 ns at 3.3 V with 5 pF load, supporting fundamental-mode crystals in that range. While higher frequencies may be achievable with overtone crystals or optimized layouts, the device's specified and tested performance envelope for stable, low-jitter oscillation is 32.768 kHz to 20 MHz - covering RTC, MCU clocks, and industrial communication timing.
