Product details
Overview
74HCT08D/AUJ from Nexperia is a quad 2-input AND gate logic IC with TTL-compatible input thresholds, 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply operation, -40 °C to +125 °C temperature range, and SO14 (SOT108-1) package. It performs basic Boolean conjunction across four independent channels and is used in digital control signal conditioning, bus gating, and enable logic in industrial microcontroller interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT08D/AUJ datasheet, 74HCT08D/AUJ pinout, 74HCT08D/AUJ application, or 74HCT08D/AUJ equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, real-world timing behavior at 5 V/50 pF, SO14 mechanical dimensions, and validated alternatives for logic-level translation and fan-out expansion tasks.
Technical Context
This device implements four independent 2-input AND gates using silicon-gate CMOS technology with TTL-level input compatibility-VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 5.0 V. Each gate exhibits rail-to-rail output swing and supports fan-out of ≥10 LS-TTL loads.
Propagation delay is 14 ns (typ) to 36 ns (max) at VCC = 4.5 V and CL = 50 pF; transition time is 7–22 ns over temperature. Input clamping diodes allow safe interfacing to voltages exceeding VCC when current-limited.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Function | Quad 2-input AND gate - four independent Boolean AND operations per package |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - matches standard 5 V TTL systems without level-shifting |
| Input Thresholds | VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max - ensures reliable recognition of legacy TTL outputs |
| Propagation Delay | 14 ns (typ), 36 ns (max) at VCC = 4.5 V, CL = 50 pF - defines worst-case combinatorial path timing |
| Output Drive | ±4.0 mA (VOH/VOL) - sufficient to drive 10 LS-TTL inputs or small capacitive loads |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for extended industrial and under-hood environments |
| ESD Protection | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - enables robust handling in automated assembly lines |
Pinout & Package
74HCT08D/AUJ uses the SO14 (SOT108-1) plastic small outline package: 14-pin, 3.9 mm body width, 1.27 mm lead pitch, gull-wing leads, JEDEC MS-012 compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A | Data input A | First input of each AND gate; accepts TTL- or CMOS-level signals |
| 1B, 2B, 3B, 4B | Data input B | Second input of each AND gate; electrically identical to A inputs |
| 1Y, 2Y, 3Y, 4Y | Data output | Active-high AND result; drives downstream logic or small loads |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference (0 V); mandatory return path for all internal currents |
| 14 | VCC | Positive supply (4.5–5.5 V); powers all four gates and internal bias networks |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL-compatible inputs | Enables direct connection to 74LS, 74F, and other legacy TTL families without level shifters |
| Wide operating temperature | Rated from -40 °C to +125 °C - supports deployment in motor controls, power supplies, and factory automation |
| Input clamp diodes | Permits safe interface to signals up to VCC + 0.5 V when series current limiting is applied |
| Low quiescent current | ICC ≤ 40 μA max at VCC = 5.5 V - minimizes static power in battery-backed or low-power standby modes |
| JEDEC-compliant packaging | SO14 (SOT108-1) footprint ensures compatibility with standard PCB assembly processes and reflow profiles |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Conditioning | Microcontroller Peripheral Enable Logic |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Isolating and gating sensor status signals before feeding into a programmable logic controller's digital input module. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Performs synchronous AND of two fault flags (e.g., overtemp AND overcurrent) to generate a single hardware shutdown signal. Use Value: Reduces external component count by replacing discrete diode-OR or resistor-transistor logic with a single 14-pin IC that meets IEC 61000-4 immunity requirements. |
Use Scenario: Enabling SPI or UART peripherals only when both system reset is deasserted and voltage rails are stable. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as a dual-input enable gate controlling peripheral power-on sequencing via MCU GPIOs. Use Value: Guarantees strict power-up order compliance with <50 ns propagation uncertainty, eliminating race conditions in mixed-voltage SoC designs. |
| Legacy Bus Interface Translation | Digital Power Supply Sequencing |
Use Scenario: Interfacing a modern ARM-based host to an older ISA-style parallel bus where address strobes must be gated with data valid. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Combines address latch enable (ALE) and write strobe (/WR) to produce a synchronized memory write pulse. Use Value: Maintains setup/hold timing margins under 20 ns skew while tolerating 5 V TTL input levels on both pins - no external resistors or buffers needed. |
Use Scenario: Coordinating startup of multiple DC-DC converters in telecom line cards where secondary rails must activate only after primary regulation is confirmed. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Gates the enable signal to a buck converter using PGOOD from a front-end controller AND a thermal OK flag. Use Value: Provides fail-safe power sequencing with sub-microsecond response and guaranteed noise immunity (>400 mV HCMOS margin) in high-noise power chassis. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad 2-input AND gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HC08D | CMOS input thresholds (VIH = 3.15 V min @ VCC = 4.5 V); wider 2.0–6.0 V supply range | Requires level shifting when driven by 5 V TTL sources; better for mixed-supply or battery-powered systems | Select when interfacing to HC-family logic or operating below 4.5 V - not drop-in for TTL sources |
| SN74LS08DR | Bipolar TTL process; VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V same, but ICC = 19 mA typical and slower (15 ns typ) | Higher power, lower noise immunity, and incompatible with CMOS output drivers due to loading | Choose only for legacy board replacements where LS-series loading and timing must be preserved |
Compared with 74HCT08D/AUJ, 74HC08D offers broader supply flexibility but lacks native TTL input compatibility, while SN74LS08DR matches input thresholds but consumes ~500× more static power and cannot drive CMOS loads without buffering.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by 74HCT08D/AUJ?
74HCT08D/AUJ is a combinational logic device with no internal clock; it does not operate at a "clock frequency." Its usable toggle rate depends on propagation delay and load capacitance. With CL = 50 pF and VCC = 4.5 V, the maximum reliable input transition rate is approximately 14 MHz (based on tpd max = 36 ns and minimum pulse width constraints).
Can 74HCT08D/AUJ drive LED indicators directly?
No - its output current rating is ±4.0 mA (sink/source), insufficient for most visible LEDs requiring 5–20 mA. It can drive high-efficiency indicator LEDs (<2 mA) with appropriate series resistance, but dedicated LED drivers or buffer stages are recommended for standard 5 mm LEDs.
Is 74HCT08D/AUJ pin-compatible with 74LS08?
Yes - both use identical SO14 pinouts and implement quad 2-input AND functionality. However, 74HCT08D/AUJ draws significantly less supply current (μA vs. mA), has higher noise immunity, and requires no pull-up resistors on unused inputs, unlike bipolar 74LS08.
Does 74HCT08D/AUJ support mixed-voltage operation (e.g., 3.3 V inputs with 5 V supply)?
No - inputs are TTL-compatible, meaning VIH = 2.0 V min and VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 5 V. A 3.3 V logic high is fully recognized, but the device itself must be powered at 4.5–5.5 V; it does not tolerate 3.3 V VCC operation nor guarantee 3.3 V output levels.
