Product details
Overview
74HC1GU04GW-Q100 from Nexperia is a single unbuffered CMOS inverter qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1, operating from -40 °C to +125 °C with supply voltage range 2.0–6.0 V. It features symmetrical output impedance, balanced propagation delays (6 ns typ. at VCC = 6.0 V, CL = 50 pF), and input clamp diodes enabling safe interfacing to voltages exceeding VCC using current-limiting resistors. It is used in automotive signal conditioning, crystal oscillator biasing, and linear amplifier configurations.
For engineers reviewing the 74HC1GU04GW-Q100 datasheet, 74HC1GU04GW-Q100 pinout, 74HC1GU04GW-Q100 application, or 74HC1GU04GW-Q100 equivalent, key selection criteria include automotive-grade temperature range, unbuffered inverter gain characteristics for oscillator design, input clamping capability, low ICC (10 μA max at VCC = 6.0 V), and TSSOP5 (SOT353-1) package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device implements a single-stage CMOS inverter without internal buffering, delivering rail-to-rail switching and enabling use as an active element in Pierce crystal oscillators and linear amplifiers. Its unbuffered architecture provides high open-loop gain (~20 typ.) and unity-gain bandwidth of ~5 MHz, supporting stable oscillation with external R/C networks.
The input includes integrated clamp diodes referenced to GND and VCC, allowing overvoltage tolerance when paired with series current-limiting resistors. Propagation delays are tightly matched between tPLH and tPHL, and static parameters-including VIH/VIL thresholds and VOH/VOL levels-are specified across both -40 °C to +85 °C and -40 °C to +125 °C ranges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.0 V to 6.0 V - Supports wide-battery automotive systems including 3.3 V and 5 V domains. |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - Qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood automotive applications. |
| Propagation Delay | 6 ns typ. at VCC = 6.0 V, CL = 50 pF - Enables precise timing control in oscillator feedback paths. |
| Output Drive | ±12.5 mA - Sufficient to drive moderate capacitive loads and multiple CMOS inputs directly. |
| Input Clamp Diodes | Integrated - Permits safe interface to signals up to VCC + 0.5 V or below GND − 0.5 V with external resistor limiting. |
| Power Dissipation | 250 mW max at Tamb ≤ 74 °C (TSSOP5) - Linear derating above 74 °C ensures thermal stability in compact layouts. |
| ESD Protection | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - Robust handling during assembly and system integration. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP5 (SOT353-1) plastic thin shrink small outline package, 5-lead, body width 1.25 mm, lead pitch 0.65 mm, exposed pad not present.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | n.c. | No internal connection - left floating; no routing or termination required. |
| 2 | A | Inverter input - accepts TTL/CMOS logic levels; clamp diodes enable overvoltage tolerance. |
| 3 | GND | Ground reference - must be low-impedance return path for all internal currents and noise suppression. |
| 4 | Y | Inverter output - rail-to-rail CMOS swing; symmetrical rise/fall times support clean clock generation. |
| 5 | VCC | Positive supply - powers internal CMOS structure; decoupling capacitor (e.g., 100 nF) required near pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for automotive use up to +125 °C ambient, meeting stringent reliability and lifetime requirements. |
| Unbuffered inverter topology | Enables high open-loop gain (~20) and stable linear operation in crystal oscillator and amplifier circuits. |
| Symmetrical output impedance | Ensures matched rise/fall times and minimal duty-cycle distortion in clock distribution paths. |
| Wide VCC range (2.0–6.0 V) | Eliminates need for level-shifting in mixed-voltage automotive subsystems (e.g., 3.3 V MCU + 5 V sensor interface). |
| Clamp diode-equipped inputs | Allows direct connection to higher-voltage nodes (e.g., LIN bus transceivers) using simple series resistors. |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) | Engine Control Unit (ECU) Sensor Interface |
|---|---|
|

| Automotive Infotainment Power Sequencing | ADAS Camera Module Reset Conditioning |
|
Use Scenario: Inverting power-good signals to generate delayed enable/disable sequences for multi-rail PMICs in head unit SoC power domains. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Logic inverter with precise threshold tracking (VIH/VIL ratio maintained across VCC and temperature) ensures monotonic sequencing behavior. Use Value: Guarantees robust power-up/down order across battery voltage sag (down to 2.0 V) and hot-cranking conditions (-40 °C to +125 °C). |

Use Value: Provides predictable 6–18 ns delay window (VCC-dependent) for controlled deassertion timing, preventing metastability in vision processing pipelines. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar unbuffered inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74LVC1G04GV-Q100 | Lower VCC range (1.65–5.5 V); higher speed (4.1 ns typ. at 3.3 V); no input clamp diodes. | Not suitable for overvoltage-tolerant interfaces; preferred where 3.3 V-only operation and minimal propagation delay dominate. | Select when system operates strictly within 1.65–5.5 V and requires faster switching without clamp protection. |
| SN74LVC1G04DBVRQ1 | Same VCC range (1.65–5.5 V); no AEC-Q100 Grade 1 rating; SO-5 package (SOT-23-5), different pinout (VCC/GND swapped vs. TSSOP5). | Lacks automotive qualification; incompatible pin mapping prevents drop-in replacement in existing TSSOP5 footprints. | Choose only for non-automotive industrial designs requiring identical logic function but lower cost and no temperature qualification. |
Compared with 74HC1GU04GW-Q100, the LVC alternatives offer faster speed at lower voltage but sacrifice AEC-Q100 Grade 1 assurance, input clamping, and TSSOP5 mechanical compatibility-making the HC variant uniquely suited for safety-critical, mixed-voltage, and overvoltage-prone automotive signal paths.

FAQ
What is the purpose of the n.c. pin (Pin 1) on the 74HC1GU04GW-Q100?
Pin 1 is internally not connected and serves no electrical function. It must remain unconnected on the PCB-no routing, pull-up, pull-down, or grounding is required or recommended. This pin exists solely for mechanical alignment and package standardization within the SOT353-1 footprint.
Can the 74HC1GU04GW-Q100 be used as a linear amplifier, and what are the key design constraints?
Yes-it supports linear operation in inverting amplifier configurations using external bias resistors and feedback. Key constraints include maintaining VCC between 2.0 V and 6.0 V, limiting input AC amplitude to avoid clipping, using R1 ≥ 3 kΩ and R2 ≤ 1 MΩ, and ensuring load impedance >10 kΩ. Typical open-loop gain is 20, with unity-gain bandwidth ~5 MHz.
How does the input clamping feature protect the 74HC1GU04GW-Q100 in automotive environments?
The integrated clamp diodes connect inputs to GND and VCC, safely shunting transient overvoltages (e.g., load dump, inductive kickback) when used with series current-limiting resistors. This prevents latch-up and oxide damage, enabling direct interface to nodes exceeding VCC by up to 0.5 V-critical for robustness in 12 V automotive harnesses.
Why does the 74HC1GU04GW-Q100 specify two temperature ranges in its datasheet?
It is fully characterized and guaranteed across both -40 °C to +85 °C and -40 °C to +125 °C ranges. The wider +125 °C specification reflects AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification for under-hood applications, with all parameters-including VOH/VOL, propagation delay, and ICC-tested and binned to meet limits at maximum junction temperature.
