Nexperia USA Inc. 74HC3G04DP-Q100H

Overview

74HC3G04DP-Q100 from Nexperia is an automotive-qualified triple CMOS inverter IC with three independent inverting gates, 2.0 V to 6.0 V supply range, -40 °C to +125 °C operating temperature, and TSSOP8 (SOT505-2) package. It features input clamp diodes enabling safe interfacing to voltages exceeding VCC, AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, and high noise immunity - used in automotive body control modules for signal inversion and level translation.

For engineers reviewing the 74HC3G04DP-Q100 datasheet, 74HC3G04DP-Q100 pinout, 74HC3G04DP-Q100 application, or 74HC3G04DP-Q100 equivalent, this page delivers verified functional role, validated pin mapping, confirmed static/dynamic timing specs, and real-world automotive use context - not generic logic gate descriptions.

Technical Context

This device implements three independent Schmitt-trigger-free CMOS inverters in a single monolithic die. Each gate exhibits rail-to-rail output swing, defined VIH/VIL thresholds dependent on VCC (e.g., VIH = 4.2 V min at VCC = 6.0 V), and propagation delays as low as 6 ns typical at VCC = 6.0 V. Input clamp diodes allow external current-limiting resistor use when interfacing to signals above VCC.

It operates across two logic families: 74HC variant accepts CMOS-level inputs (VIH ≥ 70% VCC), while the pin-compatible 74HCT variant (not this part) supports TTL-level inputs (VIH = 2.0 V min). Static current consumption is ≤1.0 μA per input at VCC = 6.0 V, and latch-up immunity exceeds 100 mA per JESD78 Class II Level B.

FAQ

What is the maximum allowable input voltage when VCC = 5.0 V?

The device includes integrated input clamp diodes. When VCC = 5.0 V, inputs may be safely driven up to VCC + 0.5 V = 5.5 V, provided external current-limiting resistors restrict IIK to ±20 mA per IEC 60134 limiting values. Exceeding this requires verifying clamping current compliance in the specific application circuit.

Can 74HC3G04DP-Q100 drive a 50 pF capacitive load at 10 MHz?

Yes. With CPD = 9 pF and tpd = 8 ns (typ) at VCC = 4.5 V, dynamic power dissipation at 10 MHz is PD ≈ 1.8 mW - well within the 250 mW TSSOP8 limit. Output rise/fall times (tt = 6 ns typ) ensure clean edges into 50 pF, meeting setup/hold requirements for downstream 74HC inputs.

Is there a thermal pad or exposed die attach on the TSSOP8 package?

No. The SOT505-2 (TSSOP8) package has no thermal pad or exposed metal slug. Thermal dissipation relies solely on PCB copper area connected to pins 4 (GND) and 8 (VCC). Derating begins linearly at 96 °C ambient, reducing Ptot by 4.6 mW/K above that point.

How does the input leakage current behave over temperature?

II remains ≤±1.0 μA across -40 °C to +125 °C per datasheet Table 7. At 25 °C, typical leakage is ±0.1 μA; worst-case increases to ±1.0 μA at max temperature. This ensures reliable high-impedance input behavior even in hot under-hood environments without unintended bias path effects.
