Product details
Overview
74HC1GU04GW,165 from Nexperia is a single unbuffered CMOS inverter in TSSOP5 (SOT353-1) package, operating from 2.0 V to 6.0 V supply, delivering symmetrical output impedance, balanced propagation delays (6–15 ns at VCC = 6.0 V, CL = 50 pF), and high noise immunity for signal inversion in space-constrained logic interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the 74HC1GU04GW,165 datasheet, 74HC1GU04GW,165 pinout, 74HC1GU04GW,165 application, or 74HC1GU04GW,165 equivalent, key selection criteria include its unbuffered architecture enabling linear amplifier use, input clamp diodes supporting overvoltage-tolerant interfacing, -40 °C to +125 °C operation, and low ICC (≤20 μA at VCC = 6.0 V).
Technical Context
The 74HC1GU04GW implements standard CMOS inverter logic with no internal buffering, resulting in lower drive strength but higher gain-bandwidth suitability for oscillator and analog amplifier configurations. Its input clamp diodes allow safe interface to signals exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors.
It supports dual temperature grades: industrial (-40 °C to +85 °C) and extended (-40 °C to +125 °C), with static VIH/VIL thresholds scaling with VCC (e.g., VIH = 4.8 V min at VCC = 6.0 V), and dynamic performance characterized up to 5 MHz unity-gain bandwidth in linear mode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.0 V to 6.0 V - Enables direct compatibility with 3.3 V and 5 V logic rails, plus battery-powered 2.0 V systems. |
| Propagation Delay | 6 ns (typ.) at VCC = 6.0 V, CL = 50 pF - Supports high-speed digital inversion in compact timing-critical paths. |
| Output Drive | ±2.6 mA at VCC = 6.0 V - Sufficient for fan-out of 2–4 standard 74HC loads; unbuffered design limits current vs. buffered variants. |
| Input Clamp Diodes | Integrated - Permits safe interfacing to voltages > VCC using external current-limiting resistors, avoiding level-shifters. |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - Qualified for under-hood automotive modules and industrial control environments. |
| ESD Protection | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - Reduces need for external ESD protection in handheld and I/O-exposed designs. |
| Power Dissipation | 250 mW max (Tamb ≤ 74 °C, TSSOP5) - Linear derating above 74 °C ensures thermal safety in sealed enclosures. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP5 (SOT353-1) package: plastic thin shrink small outline, 5 leads, body width 1.25 mm, 0.65 mm lead pitch, 1.3 mm height - optimized for high-density PCB layouts and automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Not connected | No internal connection; must be left floating or grounded per layout best practice - avoids parasitic coupling. |
| 2 | Data input (A) | Inverting logic input with clamp diodes; accepts DC or AC signals up to VCC + 0.5 V with current limiting. |
| 3 | Ground (GND) | Reference node for all voltage measurements and return path for input/output currents. |
| 4 | Data output (Y) | Inverted logic output; drives capacitive loads up to 50 pF with specified tpd; rail-to-rail swing. |
| 5 | Supply voltage (VCC) | Positive supply rail; decoupling capacitor (100 nF) required within 5 mm for stable switching noise margin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Unbuffered inverter topology | Enables use as linear amplifier (gain ~20) or crystal oscillator active element - not possible with buffered inverters. |
| Symmetrical output impedance | Ensures matched rise/fall times (tPLH ≈ tPHL), critical for clock distribution and pulse shaping. |
| Wide VCC range (2.0–6.0 V) | Eliminates need for separate voltage translators when interfacing mixed-supply subsystems (e.g., 2.5 V sensor to 5 V MCU). |
| Latch-up immunity >100 mA | Guarantees robustness against transient current spikes in noisy industrial environments per JESD78 Class II Level B. |
| Input capacitance ≤5 pF | Minimizes loading on driving stage - preserves signal integrity in high-frequency or high-impedance source applications. |
Applications
| Crystal Oscillator Circuit | Level-Shifting Interface |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Generating stable clock signals for microcontrollers or real-time clocks using a parallel-resonant quartz crystal. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Active gain element in Pierce oscillator configuration, providing phase inversion and amplification. Use Value: Delivers typical unity-gain bandwidth of 5 MHz and low input capacitance (≤5 pF), enabling reliable startup and frequency stability down to 3 kHz. | Use Scenario: Interfacing a 12 V sensor output to a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO without dedicated level-shifter ICs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Logic inverter with integrated input clamp diodes, used with series current-limiting resistor. Use Value: Clamp diodes safely shunt excess voltage to VCC/GND; enables robust 12 V → 3.3 V translation with only one passive component. |
| Linear Amplifier Stage | Signal Polarity Inversion |
Use Scenario: Building low-noise, low-power analog front-end stages for sensor signal conditioning in portable devices. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: DC-coupled inverting amplifier with open-loop gain ~20 and bandwidth ~5 MHz. Use Value: Operates from same supply as digital logic (e.g., 3.3 V), eliminating need for separate op-amp rails and reducing BOM count. | Use Scenario: Correcting signal polarity mismatch between legacy peripherals and modern controllers in industrial PLC backplanes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Single-gate logic inverter inserted in data or control line to restore active-low/active-high alignment. Use Value: Propagation delay ≤15 ns ensures minimal timing skew; low power (ICC ≤20 μA) avoids adding load to existing bus drivers. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar unbuffered inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1G04DBVR | Lower VCC range (1.65–5.5 V); higher drive (±32 mA); no input clamps | Not suitable for overvoltage interface; better for high-fanout digital loads | Select when driving multiple 74LVC inputs or requiring 1.8 V compatibility - avoid if interfacing >VCC signals. |
| MC74VHC1G04DTT1G | Wider VCC (2.0–5.5 V); higher speed (tpd = 3.5 ns typ. at 5 V); no clamps | Lacks clamp diodes; unsuitable for linear amplifier use due to internal buffering | Choose for maximum speed in pure digital inversion; reject if crystal oscillator or analog amplifier function is needed. |
Compared with SN74LVC1G04DBVR and MC74VHC1G04DTT1G, the 74HC1GU04GW,165 uniquely supports overvoltage-tolerant interfacing and linear-mode operation - making it irreplaceable in oscillator and analog amplifier roles despite slightly slower speed.

FAQ
Can the 74HC1GU04GW,165 be used as a linear amplifier?
Yes - its unbuffered CMOS structure allows DC-coupled linear operation with typical open-loop gain of 20 and unity-gain bandwidth of 5 MHz. Application Figure 12 in the datasheet provides biasing guidance using R1 ≥ 3 kΩ and R2 ≤ 1 MΩ, with output centered at 0.5 × VCC and peak-to-peak swing limited to VCC − 1.5 V.
What is the purpose of the 'n.c.' pin (Pin 1) on the 74HC1GU04GW,165?
Pin 1 is not internally connected and serves only as a mechanical alignment marker. It must remain unconnected - neither tied to VCC nor GND - to prevent unintended coupling or leakage paths that could degrade noise immunity or increase standby current beyond the specified 20 μA maximum.
Does the 74HC1GU04GW,165 support operation at 1.8 V?
No - the absolute minimum supply voltage is 2.0 V per JEDEC JESD7A and datasheet Section 9. Operation below 2.0 V risks undefined logic states, increased propagation delay variation, and failure to meet VIH/VIL thresholds; for 1.8 V systems, consider SN74LVC1G04DBVR instead.
How does the input clamp diode functionality work in practice?
When an input voltage exceeds VCC or falls below GND, the internal clamp diodes conduct, diverting current through an external series resistor (e.g., 10 kΩ for 12 V → 3.3 V). This limits input current to safe levels (<±20 mA per Table 5), protecting the gate oxide while maintaining logic integrity - no additional protection components required.
