Product details
Overview
74HC00DB,118 from Nexperia is a quad 2-input NAND gate IC operating across 2.0 V to 6.0 V supply, delivering CMOS-level input compatibility, propagation delay as low as 7 ns at VCC = 6.0 V (CL = 50 pF), and guaranteed operation from –40 °C to +125 °C in SO14 package. It serves as a fundamental combinational logic building block in digital control, interface buffering, and signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 74HC00DB,118 datasheet, 74HC00DB,118 pinout, 74HC00DB,118 application, or 74HC00DB,118 equivalent, key selection considerations include its TTL-compatible variant (74HCT00DB), input clamping diode support for overvoltage-tolerant interfacing, SO14 thermal derating profile, and static drive capability of ±4.0 mA at VCC = 4.5 V.
Technical Context
This device implements four independent 2-input NAND gates in a single monolithic CMOS structure, with inputs featuring integrated clamp diodes enabling safe interfacing to signals exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors. Each gate exhibits symmetrical HIGH/LOW output voltage thresholds defined by VCC-dependent VIH/VIL levels.
It conforms to JEDEC JESD7A (2.0–6.0 V) and JESD8C (2.7–3.6 V) standards, supports HBM ESD immunity >2000 V and CDM >1000 V, and maintains latch-up robustness exceeding 100 mA per JESD78 Class II Level B - critical for industrial and automotive-adjacent embedded systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Function | Quad 2-input NAND - provides four independent Boolean NOT-AND operations per package |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.0 V to 6.0 V - enables direct integration into 3.3 V and 5 V digital systems without level translation |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 7 ns max at VCC = 6.0 V, CL = 50 pF - ensures timing-critical combinational logic paths meet sub-10 ns budgets |
| Output Drive | ±4.0 mA at VCC = 4.5 V - sufficient to directly drive multiple 74HC-series inputs or small capacitive loads |
| Operating Temperature | –40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood, industrial control, and extended-range power supply monitoring |
| Input Clamp Diodes | Integrated - allows safe connection of inputs to voltages up to VCC + 0.5 V using external series resistors |
| Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 500 mW (SO14, Tamb ≤ 100 °C) - supports continuous operation in compact PCB layouts with moderate airflow |
Pinout & Package
74HC00DB,118 is supplied in SOT337-1 (SSOP14) package - a 14-lead shrink small outline plastic package with 0.65 mm lead pitch and body width of 5.3 mm. This package offers improved thermal performance and board density versus standard SO14 while maintaining hand-solderability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 4, 9, 12 | 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A | First input of each NAND gate - accepts CMOS-level logic signals; clamped to VCC/GND |
| 2, 5, 10, 13 | 1B, 2B, 3B, 4B | Second input of each NAND gate - electrically identical to A inputs; supports wired-OR via open-drain emulation |
| 3, 6, 8, 11 | 1Y, 2Y, 3Y, 4Y | Active-low NAND output - sinks or sources up to ±4.0 mA; rail-to-rail swing within VOH/VOL specs |
| 7 | GND | Digital ground reference - must be low-impedance connection to minimize switching noise coupling |
| 14 | VCC | Positive supply rail - bypassing with 100 nF ceramic capacitor near pin is mandatory for stable operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide VCC range | 2.0 V to 6.0 V - eliminates need for separate 3.3 V/5 V logic families in mixed-supply systems |
| High noise immunity | Typical noise margin >40 % of VCC - resists EMI-induced glitches in noisy industrial environments |
| Latch-up immunity | >100 mA per JESD78 Class II Level B - prevents destructive parasitic SCR activation during transient overstress |
| ESD protection | HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V - exceeds IEC 61000-4-2 Level 3 requirements for handling robustness |
| Input clamp diodes | Integrated anode-to-GND / cathode-to-VCC - enables safe interfacing to 12 V control signals using 10 kΩ series resistors |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Input Conditioning | Microcontroller GPIO Expansion |

Use Value: Delivers fail-safe sequencing with no external RC timing components - reduces component count and improves reliability. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad NAND gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HC00D,118 | Same logic function and electrical specs, but in SO14 (SOT108-1) package with 1.27 mm pitch and 3.9 mm body width | Lower thermal resistance (10.1 mW/K derating above 100 °C) and wider availability in automated assembly lines | Select for high-volume SMT production where SO14 footprint and reflow compatibility are prioritized |
| SN74HC00DR | TI-manufactured 74HC00 in SOIC-14; identical AC/DC specs but different ESD ratings (HBM >4000 V) and tighter VOH/VOL min/max spreads | Preferred in aerospace-qualified designs requiring higher ESD margin and extended qualification documentation | Select when full TI qualification data, enhanced HBM rating, or dual-sourcing against Nexperia is required |
Compared with 74HC00DB,118, the SO14 variant offers better thermal management for sustained high-speed operation, while the TI SN74HC00DR provides higher ESD resilience and broader qualification coverage - making each suitable for distinct reliability or manufacturing constraints.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended operating frequency for 74HC00DB,118?
The 74HC00DB,118 does not specify a maximum clock frequency because it is a combinational logic device without internal clocking. Its usable toggle rate is governed by propagation delay (7 ns typical at VCC = 6.0 V) and load capacitance. For a 50 pF load, maximum reliable switching occurs below ~35 MHz to maintain clean edges and avoid setup/hold violations in downstream logic.
Can 74HC00DB,118 safely interface with 5 V TTL outputs?
No - the 74HC00DB,118 has CMOS-level inputs (VIH ≥ 0.7×VCC), so at VCC = 3.3 V, VIH ≥ 2.31 V. A 5 V TTL output (VOH ≈ 2.4 V) meets this margin only near VCC extremes and temperature limits. Use the pin-compatible 74HCT00DB,118 instead, which specifies VIH = 2.0 V min across VCC = 4.5–5.5 V and guarantees TTL compatibility.
Is the SSOP14 (SOT337-1) package RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes - 74HC00DB,118 is manufactured in a lead-free, RoHS-compliant SSOP14 package per Nexperia's standard environmental compliance policy. The device carries the "LEAD-FREE" marking on the top-side laser marking and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level MSL3 (260 °C reflow peak).
Does 74HC00DB,118 require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on unused inputs?
Yes - all unused inputs must be terminated to a valid logic level (VCC or GND) to prevent floating nodes that cause increased ICC, oscillation, or excessive power dissipation. A 10 kΩ pull-up to VCC or pull-down to GND is recommended; leaving inputs unconnected violates recommended operating conditions and risks erratic behavior.
