Product details
Overview
74HCT2G02DC,125 from Nexperia is a dual 2-input NOR gate logic IC in VSSOP8 package, operating from 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply, with TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V), propagation delay of 12–29 ns at 4.5 V, and rated for -40 °C to +125 °C ambient. It enables compact level-shifting logic in space-constrained industrial control and sensor interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT2G02DC,125 datasheet, 74HCT2G02DC,125 pinout, 74HCT2G02DC,125 application, or 74HCT2G02DC,125 equivalent, this device serves as a low-power, high-noise-immunity dual NOR gate optimized for interfacing TTL-level signals in automotive-qualified industrial modules, battery-powered instrumentation, and mixed-voltage digital subsystems.
Technical Context
The 74HCT2G02DC,125 implements two independent CMOS-based NOR gates with TTL-compatible input voltage thresholds-ensuring reliable recognition of 3.3 V or 5 V TTL outputs while driving standard CMOS loads. Its inputs include clamp diodes, allowing safe interfacing to voltages exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors.
It operates across a narrow 4.5–5.5 V supply range with guaranteed static performance (VOH ≥ 4.13 V at IO = –4.0 mA; VOL ≤ 0.33 V at IO = 4.0 mA) and dynamic timing (tpd ≤ 29 ns, tt ≤ 22 ns at VCC = 4.5 V, CL = 15 pF), making it suitable for synchronous logic glue in microcontroller peripheral interfaces and discrete state-machine implementations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Function | Dual independent 2-input NOR gate - provides two discrete OR-NOT logic paths in one package. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - matches standard 5 V TTL/CMOS systems and ensures compatibility with legacy industrial controllers. |
| Input Thresholds | VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V - guarantees robust recognition of TTL output levels without external level shifters. |
| Propagation Delay | 12–29 ns at VCC = 4.5 V - supports clock rates up to ~17 MHz in simple combinatorial paths. |
| Output Drive | ±4.0 mA at VCC = 4.5 V - sufficient to drive 10 LSTTL loads or multiple CMOS inputs with margin. |
| Operating Temperature | –40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive modules and industrial motor drives. |
| ESD Protection | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - reduces risk of field failure during PCB handling and assembly. |
Pinout & Package
VSSOP8 plastic very thin shrink small outline package (SOT765-1); 8 leads; body width 2.3 mm; pin 1 indicator located on lower-left corner below marking "T02".
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1A | First NOR gate input A - accepts TTL/CMOS logic levels; includes internal clamp diode to VCC/GND. |
| 2 | 1B | First NOR gate input B - electrically identical to 1A; both inputs share same VIH/VIL specs. |
| 3 | 1Y | First NOR gate output Y - active-low output; sinks or sources up to ±4.0 mA at VCC = 4.5 V. |
| 4 | GND | Ground reference - must be connected to system 0 V plane; shared return for both gates. |
| 5 | 2A | Second NOR gate input A - fully isolated from first gate; no internal coupling or crosstalk. |
| 6 | 2B | Second NOR gate input B - identical electrical behavior to 1A/1B; supports independent logic functions. |
| 7 | 2Y | Second NOR gate output Y - complements inputs 2A/2B per NOR truth table; fanout-matched to 1Y. |
| 8 | VCC | Positive supply - powers both gates; requires local 100 nF ceramic decoupling within 5 mm. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL-compatible inputs | Enables direct connection to legacy 5 V TTL outputs without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Clamp diode protection | Allows safe interface to signals up to VCC + 0.5 V using series current-limiting resistors. |
| High noise immunity | Input hysteresis and 40 % noise margin at VCC = 5 V reduce susceptibility to EMI-induced glitches. |
| Latch-up immunity | Exceeds 100 mA per JESD78 Class II Level B - prevents destructive latch-up under transient overvoltage. |
| Low quiescent current | ICC ≤ 20 μA at VCC = 5.5 V - minimizes standby power in always-on sensor nodes and watchdog circuits. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Expansion | Automotive Body Control Module |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual NOR gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC2G02DCKR | Wider supply range (1.65–5.5 V), CMOS inputs only (VIH = 0.7×VCC), 3.3 V native - lacks TTL threshold compatibility. | Suitable for 3.3 V-only systems; cannot directly replace 74HCT2G02DC in 5 V TTL environments without level translation. | Select when migrating to 3.3 V logic domains and full voltage flexibility is required over TTL interoperability. |
| MC74VHC2G02DTT1G | Same 2–5.5 V supply, CMOS inputs (VIH = 0.67×VCC), higher speed (tpd = 7.5 ns typ at 5 V), no TTL input spec. | Better for high-speed 5 V CMOS designs but fails to recognize standard TTL VOH (2.4 V) reliably at VCC = 5 V. | Prefer for new 5 V CMOS designs where speed > 20 MHz matters and all upstream drivers are CMOS-compliant. |
Compared with SN74LVC2G02DCKR and MC74VHC2G02DTT1G, the 74HCT2G02DC,125 uniquely guarantees TTL-level input recognition across its full 4.5–5.5 V range - a critical differentiator in mixed-signal industrial and automotive systems where legacy 5 V TTL peripherals remain prevalent.

FAQ
Can 74HCT2G02DC,125 operate at 3.3 V supply?
No. The 74HCT2G02DC,125 is specified only for 4.5 V to 5.5 V operation per its Recommended Operating Conditions table. At 3.3 V, input thresholds fall outside TTL specification (VIH minimum becomes undefined), and output drive degrades below guaranteed levels. Use 74LVC2G02 for 3.3 V systems.
What is the maximum capacitive load this device can drive reliably?
The 74HCT2G02DC,125 is characterized up to 50 pF load capacitance in its dynamic test data (Table 10), with propagation delay and transition time specified at 15 pF and 50 pF. For stable operation beyond 50 pF, add a series resistor (22–47 Ω) near the output to damp ringing and limit peak current.
Does this part have Schmitt-trigger inputs?
No. The 74HCT2G02DC,125 uses standard CMOS input stages with no hysteresis. Its input thresholds are fixed (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 5 V), not adaptive. For noisy signal conditioning, pair with a dedicated Schmitt-trigger buffer such as 74HCT14.
Is thermal derating required above 99 °C ambient?
Yes. Per datasheet Section 8, total power dissipation derates linearly at 4.9 mW/K above 99 °C for the VSSOP8 (SOT765-1) package. At 125 °C ambient, maximum allowed PD drops to approximately 185 mW - well above typical 1–2 mW static consumption, but relevant under heavy switching loads.
