Nexperia USA Inc. 74HC1G04GW,125

Overview

74HC1G04GW,125 from Nexperia is a single CMOS inverter logic gate in TSSOP5 (SOT353-1) package, operating from 2.0 V to 6.0 V supply, delivering symmetrical output impedance, 9 ns typical propagation delay at 4.5 V/50 pF, and ±12.5 mA output drive-used for signal inversion in low-power digital interface circuits such as level-shifting, clock buffering, and reset signal conditioning.

For engineers reviewing the 74HC1G04GW,125 datasheet, 74HC1G04GW,125 pinout, 74HC1G04GW,125 application, or 74HC1G04GW,125 equivalent, key selection criteria include supply voltage range compatibility (2.0–6.0 V), TTL/CMOS input threshold distinction, thermal derating behavior above 74 °C, and SOT353-1 footprint constraints in space-constrained PCB layouts.

Technical Context

This device implements a single unbuffered inverter function with clamped inputs enabling safe interfacing to voltages exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors. Its CMOS-level input thresholds scale with VCC (VIH = 0.7×VCC min, VIL = 0.3×VCC max), ensuring robust noise immunity across the full 2.0–6.0 V operating range.

Propagation delay is tightly balanced between tPLH and tPHL (≤2 ns skew at 4.5 V), and output drive capability remains stable over -40 °C to +125 °C ambient, with total power dissipation capped at 250 mW (derated linearly by 3.3 mW/K above 74 °C for TSSOP5).

FAQ

What is the maximum allowable input voltage when VCC = 3.3 V?

Per the datasheet, inputs may exceed VCC by up to 0.5 V when current-limited (e.g., with ≥1 kΩ series resistor), due to integrated clamping diodes. Absolute maximum input voltage is VCC + 0.5 V = 3.8 V, provided input current stays within ±20 mA limits specified in Table 5.

Can 74HC1G04GW,125 drive a 50 pF capacitive load at 10 MHz?

Yes. At VCC = 4.5 V and CL = 50 pF, propagation delay is 9 ns typ (27 ns max), yielding a theoretical maximum toggle frequency of ~37 MHz. Driving 50 pF at 10 MHz introduces negligible additional delay or power penalty, well within CPD = 16 pF and Ptot = 250 mW limits.

Is pin 1 marked on the 74HC1G04GW,125 package?

Yes. Pin 1 is indicated by a dot or notch located on the lower-left corner of the TSSOP5 body, directly below the marking "HC" laser-etched on the top surface, per Figure 4 and Table 2 of the datasheet.

How does thermal derating apply to the TSSOP5 package?

For the SOT353-1 (TSSOP5) package, total power dissipation derates linearly at 3.3 mW/K above +74 °C. At +125 °C ambient, usable Ptot drops to 250 mW − (125−74) × 3.3 ≈ 82 mW, requiring careful layout with thermal vias and copper pour to maintain junction temperature within limit.
