Product details
Overview
74HC3GU04DP-Q100 from Nexperia is a triple unbuffered inverter IC qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for automotive use, operating from -40 °C to +125 °C with supply voltage range 2.0 V to 6.0 V. It features symmetrical output impedance, balanced propagation delays (5–15 ns at VCC = 6.0 V), and integrated input clamp diodes enabling safe interfacing to voltages exceeding VCC via current-limiting resistors. It is used in crystal oscillator circuits and linear amplifier configurations in engine control units and body electronics.
For engineers reviewing the 74HC3GU04DP-Q100 datasheet, 74HC3GU04DP-Q100 pinout, 74HC3GU04DP-Q100 application, or 74HC3GU04DP-Q100 equivalent, key selection criteria include its unbuffered inverter topology, automotive-grade thermal and ESD robustness (HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V), TSSOP8 package compatibility, and dual-temperature-range operation (-40 °C to +125 °C).
Technical Context
The 74HC3GU04DP-Q100 implements three independent unbuffered CMOS inverters-each with no internal buffering stage-enabling direct gate-level inversion with minimal propagation delay asymmetry. Its input clamp diodes allow overvoltage-tolerant interfacing without external protection components when used with series current-limiting resistors.
It operates across two specified ambient temperature ranges (-40 °C to +85 °C and -40 °C to +125 °C) and supports dynamic power calculation via CPD = 5 pF, enabling accurate estimation of switching power dissipation under varying input/output frequencies and load capacitances.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.0 V to 6.0 V - enables direct interface with 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains and battery-supplied automotive subsystems. |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 5–15 ns at VCC = 6.0 V - ensures precise timing alignment in oscillator feedback paths and clock conditioning circuits. |
| Input Clamp Diodes | Integrated - permits safe connection to signals up to VCC + 0.5 V using external current-limiting resistors, eliminating need for discrete clamping. |
| ESD Protection | HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V - meets automotive system-level ESD immunity requirements without additional board-level protection. |
| Output Drive Strength | ±4.0 mA at VCC = 4.5 V - sufficient to drive typical crystal loads and small capacitive nodes in sensor interface and timing circuits. |
| Power Dissipation Capacitance (CPD) | 5 pF - allows accurate dynamic power modeling (PD = CPD × VCC² × fi × N) for thermal design in space-constrained ECUs. |
| Ambient Temperature Range | -40 °C to +125 °C - certified for under-hood automotive applications including transmission control and ADAS sensor modules. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP8 plastic thin shrink small outline package (SOT505-2); 8 leads; body width 3 mm; lead length 0.5 mm; pin 1 index located below marking code HU4 in lower-left corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 3, 6 | 1A, 2A, 3A | Independent logic inputs - each drives one unbuffered inverter stage; compatible with 3.3 V/5 V CMOS levels and overvoltage-tolerant via clamp diodes. |
| 7, 5, 2 | 1Y, 2Y, 3Y | Corresponding inverted outputs - symmetrical rise/fall times (5–20 ns) support clean square-wave generation in oscillator loops. |
| 4 | GND | Ground reference (0 V) - must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling into sensitive analog oscillator paths. |
| 8 | VCC | Supply voltage input - decoupling capacitor (≥100 nF) required adjacent to pin to stabilize rail during fast switching transitions. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for automotive use up to +125 °C ambient, supporting deployment in powertrain and chassis control modules without derating. |
| Symmetrical output impedance | Enables matched rise/fall times (tTLH ≈ tTHL), critical for low-jitter crystal oscillator startup and stable loop gain in linear amplifier mode. |
| Unbuffered inverter architecture | Eliminates internal buffering stages, reducing propagation delay variation and enabling direct use as gain element in Pierce oscillator topologies. |
| High noise immunity | VIH ≥ 3.6 V and VIL ≤ 0.9 V at VCC = 4.5 V - provides >1.5 V noise margin against coupled transients in electrically noisy vehicle environments. |
| Low quiescent current | ICC ≤ 20 μA at VCC = 6.0 V - minimizes standby power in always-on automotive modules such as door module wake-up circuits. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar unbuffered inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74LVC3GU04DP-Q100 | Lower VCC range (1.65–5.5 V); higher speed (tpd = 3.3 ns @ 3.3 V); reduced drive strength (±24 mA). | Better suited for 1.8 V/3.3 V-only domains; not rated for 6.0 V operation or +125 °C extended range. | Select when interfacing exclusively with low-voltage logic and requiring faster edge rates in compact ADAS sensor hubs. |
| SN74LVC3G04DCURQ1 | Texas Instruments part in VSSOP8; identical pinout; same AEC-Q100 Grade 1 rating; slightly higher ICC (max 10 μA vs 20 μA). | Direct footprint-compatible alternative; identical functional behavior but different ESD test report documentation. | Choose for TI-design ecosystems or where dual-sourcing across Nexperia and TI is mandated by procurement policy. |
Compared with 74HC3GU04DP-Q100, the LVC variant trades 6.0 V tolerance and +125 °C capability for higher speed at 3.3 V, while the TI SN74LVC3G04DCURQ1 offers identical automotive qualification and pin compatibility but diverges in supply current spec and manufacturer-specific test reporting-making it suitable for second-source assurance rather than performance enhancement.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable supply voltage for continuous operation?
The absolute maximum supply voltage is +7.0 V, but recommended continuous operation is limited to 2.0 V to 6.0 V per Table 6. Exceeding 6.0 V voids AEC-Q100 qualification and risks permanent damage even if clamping currents remain within ±20 mA limits.
Can this device be used as a linear amplifier, and what are the key constraints?
Yes, the datasheet explicitly supports linear amplifier use (Fig. 10) with AOL ≈ 20 and unity-gain bandwidth ≈ 5 MHz. Key constraints include biasing R1 ≥ 3 kΩ and R2 ≤ 1 MΩ, using ZL > 10 kΩ, and limiting input signal amplitude to avoid clipping at VO(p-p) = VCC − 1.5 V centered at 0.5 × VCC.
How does the input clamp diode functionality affect external circuit design?
The integrated clamp diodes allow safe connection to signals up to VCC + 0.5 V when series current-limiting resistors limit IIK to ≤ ±20 mA. This eliminates need for external Schottky clamps in LIN bus wake-up or CAN transceiver enable lines, reducing BOM count and PCB area in automotive gateway modules.
Is the TSSOP8 (SOT505-2) package RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the 74HC3GU04DP-Q100 in SOT505-2 packaging is fully RoHS-compliant and lead-free, with termination finish specified as matte tin (Sn) per Nexperia's product compliance documentation dated August 2024, meeting EU Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-609 Category 1.
