Nexperia USA Inc. 74HC1G86GW-Q100H

Overview

74HC1G86GW-Q100 from Nexperia is a single 2-input CMOS-exclusive-OR gate qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1, operating from -40 °C to +125 °C with supply voltage range 2.0 V to 6.0 V. It delivers symmetrical output impedance, balanced propagation delays (9 ns typ at VCC = 6.0 V, CL = 50 pF), and integrated input clamp diodes enabling overvoltage-tolerant interfacing in automotive body control modules.

For engineers reviewing the 74HC1G86GW-Q100 datasheet, 74HC1G86GW-Q100 pinout, 74HC1G86GW-Q100 application, or 74HC1G86GW-Q100 equivalent, this device serves as a robust, low-power logic-level XOR function for fault-detection circuits, sensor signal conditioning, and secure key generation in automotive ECUs where TTL/CMOS level compatibility and thermal resilience are critical.

Technical Context

This device implements a single 2-input XOR Boolean function with true complementary CMOS output stage, delivering rail-to-rail switching and matched tPLH/tPHL propagation delays. Its input structure includes integrated clamp diodes referenced to VCC and GND, allowing safe interface with signals exceeding supply rails when used with current-limiting resistors.

The logic core operates across full automotive temperature range (-40 °C to +125 °C) and supports dual-voltage system interoperability via wide 2.0–6.0 V supply tolerance and CMOS-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 4.2 V min at VCC = 6.0 V). Output drive capability is ±12.5 mA with VOL ≤ 0.33 V at IO = 2.6 mA and VCC = 6.0 V.

FAQ

Can 74HC1G86GW-Q100 operate reliably at 125 °C ambient temperature?

Yes. The device is fully specified and tested from -40 °C to +125 °C per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements. All electrical parameters-including propagation delay, VOH/VOL, and ICC-are guaranteed across this range, and thermal derating of total power dissipation (250 mW at Tamb ≤ 74 °C, linearly decreasing above) is explicitly defined for the TSSOP5 package.

Does this part support mixed-voltage interfacing, such as 3.3 V logic driving a 5 V supply rail?

No. The 74HC1G86GW-Q100 requires a single VCC supply; its inputs are CMOS-level and referenced to that same VCC. To interface a 3.3 V controller with a 5 V-powered instance, use external level-shifting circuitry or select the 74HCT1G86GW-Q100 variant, which accepts TTL-level inputs compatible with 3.3 V logic even when VCC = 5 V.

What is the maximum capacitive load this device can drive while maintaining specified timing?

The datasheet specifies dynamic performance up to 50 pF load capacitance, with tpd = 9 ns (typ) at VCC = 6.0 V. Driving >50 pF increases propagation delay nonlinearly and may cause output ringing; for loads exceeding 50 pF, add a series resistor (10–33 Ω) near the output pin to dampen reflections and maintain signal integrity.

Is there a recommended PCB layout practice for minimizing noise coupling on the Y output?

Yes. Route the Y output trace short and direct, avoid routing near noisy signals (e.g., PWM, CAN), place a 100 nF X7R ceramic capacitor between VCC and GND within 3 mm of pins 3 and 5, and ensure solid GND plane beneath the TSSOP5 footprint. Do not use vias in the Y trace unless absolutely necessary-and if used, place ground vias adjacent to minimize loop area.
