Product details
Overview
74HC3G06DC,125 from Nexperia is a triple CMOS inverter IC with open-drain outputs, designed for level-shifting, wired-AND logic, and bus interface applications in industrial and embedded systems. It operates from 2.0 V to 6.0 V, delivers propagation delays as low as 8 ns at 6.0 V, supports -40 °C to +125 °C ambient operation, and features input clamp diodes enabling safe interfacing to voltages exceeding VCC.
For engineers reviewing the 74HC3G06DC,125 datasheet, 74HC3G06DC,125 pinout, 74HC3G06DC,125 application, or 74HC3G06DC,125 equivalent, key selection criteria include open-drain output drive capability (5.2 mA sink at 6.0 V), input voltage compatibility across CMOS logic families, thermal performance in VSSOP8 packaging, and static noise immunity exceeding 40% of VCC.
Technical Context
This device implements three independent inverting buffers, each with an open-drain output stage that requires an external pull-up resistor for HIGH-level assertion. The input structure includes integrated clamp diodes to ground and VCC, permitting current-limited overvoltage tolerance up to 7.0 V on inputs regardless of supply voltage.
It adheres to JEDEC JESD7A (2.0–6.0 V) and JESD8C (2.7–3.6 V) standards, supports TTL-compatible input thresholds only in the 74HCT variant (not applicable here), and exhibits latch-up immunity >100 mA per JESD78 Class II Level B - confirming robustness in noisy or transient-prone environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.0 V to 6.0 V - enables direct integration into mixed-voltage systems including 3.3 V and 5 V rails without level shifters. |
| Propagation Delay (tPZL) | 8 ns max at VCC = 6.0 V - ensures timing-critical signal inversion with minimal latency in high-speed control paths. |
| Output Sink Current | 5.2 mA at VO = 0.33 V, VCC = 6.0 V - supports reliable driving of standard 4.7 kΩ pull-ups for I²C-bus or SMBus-compatible interfaces. |
| Input Clamp Diode Range | VI < −0.5 V or VI > VCC + 0.5 V - allows safe connection to signals up to 7.0 V using series current-limiting resistors. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive ancillary modules and industrial motor control enclosures. |
| Static Input Leakage | ±0.1 μA max at VCC = 6.0 V - minimizes loading on high-impedance sensor or reference signal sources. |
| Power Dissipation Capacitance | 4 pF - determines dynamic power consumption in switching applications; PD = CPD × VCC² × fi × N. |
Pinout & Package
VSSOP8 plastic very thin shrink small outline package (SOT765-1), 8-pin, body width 2.3 mm, lead pitch 0.5 mm, nominal height 0.9 mm - optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts in portable and modular electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 3, 6 | 1A, 2A, 3A | Independent logic inputs; each accepts CMOS-level signals and features internal clamp diodes to VCC and GND. |
| 2, 5, 7 | 3Y, 2Y, 1Y | Open-drain outputs; require external pull-up resistors; capable of sinking ≥5.2 mA while maintaining VOL ≤ 0.33 V. |
| 4 | GND | Ground reference for all inputs, outputs, and internal circuitry; must be low-impedance for noise immunity. |
| 8 | VCC | Primary supply rail; decoupling capacitor (100 nF ceramic) recommended within 5 mm of this pin for stable operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triple independent inverters | Enables compact implementation of three separate signal inversions or logic-level translations without cross-talk. |
| Open-drain outputs | Permits wired-AND bus topologies, I²C/SMBus compatibility, and flexible pull-up voltage selection (e.g., 1.8 V, 3.3 V, or 5 V). |
| Input clamp diodes | Eliminates need for external protection components when interfacing to higher-voltage peripherals or legacy logic families. |
| High noise immunity | VIH ≥ 4.2 V and VIL ≤ 1.8 V at VCC = 6.0 V - provides >40% noise margin against supply ripple and EMI-induced glitches. |
| JESD78 Class II latch-up immunity | Withstands >100 mA transient current without destructive latch-up - critical for reliability in industrial power supply monitoring circuits. |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Interface | I²C Bus Level Translation |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Interfacing 5 V analog sensor outputs to a 3.3 V microcontroller ADC input via active-low enable signaling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inverts and conditions enable signals while providing overvoltage-tolerant input staging before MCU GPIOs. Use Value: Clamp diodes allow direct 5 V sensor enable lines to connect without external resistors or Zener clamps, reducing BOM count by one component per channel. |
Use Scenario: Translating SDA/SCL signals between 3.3 V master and 5 V slave devices on a shared I²C bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as bidirectional open-drain buffer with independent pull-up domains per side, preserving bus timing integrity. Use Value: Propagation delay ≤9 ns at 4.5 V ensures sub-100 ns round-trip delay overhead - well within I²C Fast-mode (400 kHz) timing budgets. |
| Programmable Logic Glue | Motor Driver Enable Sequencing |
|
Use Scenario: Generating complementary enable signals for dual-channel gate drivers in half-bridge configurations. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides matched-delay inversion for synchronized high-side/low-side driver activation control. Use Value: tPLZ/tPZL matching ≤2 ns across channels ensures <5 ns skew between enable edges - preventing shoot-through during transition windows. |
Use Scenario: Controlling startup sequencing of BLDC motor phase drivers using microcontroller GPIOs with limited drive strength. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Buffers and inverts low-current MCU outputs to drive higher-current optocoupler or MOSFET gate inputs. Use Value: 5.2 mA sink capability directly drives common 4N25 optocoupler LEDs without additional transistor stages, simplifying isolation interface design. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple inverter with open-drain output applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74LVC3G06GW,125 | Lower VCC range (1.65–5.5 V); faster tPD (3.2 ns typ at 3.3 V); higher ICC leakage (±5 μA). | Better suited for battery-powered 1.8 V/3.3 V systems; less tolerant of 5 V overvoltage inputs due to absence of clamp diodes. | Select when speed and low-voltage operation outweigh overvoltage protection needs. |
| SN74LVC3G06DCUR | Texas Instruments variant; identical pinout; slightly higher VOL (0.55 V @ 24 mA); same 1.65–5.5 V range. | Compatible in footprint but requires validation of pull-up resistor value due to higher VOL under load. | Choose for TI-design ecosystems where second-source assurance or existing qualification is required. |
Compared with 74LVC3G06GW,125 and SN74LVC3G06DCUR, the 74HC3G06DC,125 uniquely combines 6.0 V absolute maximum input tolerance, −40 °C to +125 °C extended temperature rating, and industry-standard JEDEC compliance - making it the preferred choice for ruggedized industrial control and automotive-adjacent applications where voltage margin and thermal resilience are non-negotiable.

FAQ
Can 74HC3G06DC,125 be used with 1.8 V logic inputs?
No - the 74HC3G06DC,125 has a minimum recommended VCC of 2.0 V and VIH threshold of 1.5 V at VCC = 2.0 V. At 1.8 V supply, input recognition becomes unreliable due to insufficient noise margin and undefined switching behavior per datasheet Section 9. For 1.8 V systems, consider the 74LVC3G06GW,125 instead, which specifies operation down to 1.65 V with guaranteed VIH/VIL levels.
What is the maximum allowable pull-up resistor value for 1Y, 2Y, and 3Y outputs?
The maximum pull-up resistor depends on bus capacitance and required rise time. With CL = 50 pF and VCC = 5.0 V, a 10 kΩ resistor yields ~0.5 V/ns rise rate, staying within the 83 ns/V limit specified for VCC = 6.0 V. For I²C Fast-mode (400 kHz), 2.2 kΩ is typical; for 100 kHz standard mode, up to 10 kΩ remains viable - verified using tR = 0.8 × RPU × CL formula and datasheet Table 9 timing references.
Does this device support hot-swap or live-insertion?
No - the 74HC3G06DC,125 lacks powered-off protection or Ioff partial power-down functionality. Applying input signals before VCC stabilization may forward-bias internal clamp diodes, causing unintended current flow. Always ensure VCC is established and stable before asserting any input signals, as confirmed by Absolute Maximum Ratings (Table 5) and Functional Description (Section 7).
Is there a pin-compatible automotive-grade version?
No - Nexperia does not offer an AEC-Q100 qualified variant of the 74HC3G06DC,125. The device is rated for −40 °C to +125 °C but is explicitly designated as non-automotive qualified per Nexperia's Legal Information (Section 15). For automotive applications, use the AEC-Q100 qualified 74AHC3G06DC,125 (if available) or consult Nexperia's automotive logic portfolio for functionally equivalent qualified alternatives.
