Product details
Overview
74LVC04ABQ,115 from Nexperia is a hex inverter logic IC with Schmitt-trigger inputs, operating across 1.2 V to 3.6 V supply, tolerant to 5.5 V inputs, and rated for -40 °C to +125 °C. It provides six independent inverting buffers with propagation delay as low as 2.0 ns (typ.) at 3.3 V, enabling level translation between 3.3 V and 5 V systems in industrial control and embedded interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC04ABQ,115 datasheet, 74LVC04ABQ,115 pinout, 74LVC04ABQ,115 application, or 74LVC04ABQ,115 equivalent, key selection criteria include input overvoltage tolerance (5.5 V), guaranteed operation down to 1.2 V supply, Schmitt-trigger noise immunity, and DHVQFN14 thermal-enhanced packaging for high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The 74LVC04ABQ implements six independent CMOS inverters with Schmitt-trigger input thresholds-ensuring robust operation with slow-rising signals and noise rejection. Each gate exhibits symmetrical HIGH/LOW output drive capability up to ±24 mA at 3.0 V.
Its input structure supports mixed-voltage interfacing: inputs accept 0–5.5 V regardless of VCC (1.2–3.6 V), enabling seamless connection to legacy 5 V TTL or LVTTL outputs without external level shifters. The device complies with JEDEC standards JESD8-7A, JESD8-5A, and JESD8-C/JESD36 across its full voltage range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage (VCC) | 1.2 V to 3.6 V - Enables direct integration into ultra-low-power 1.2 V ASIC interfaces and standard 3.3 V microcontroller I/O domains. |
| Input Voltage Range | 0 V to 5.5 V - Allows safe connection to 5 V logic sources without clamping diodes or resistors, simplifying mixed-voltage board design. |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 2.0 ns (typ.) at VCC = 3.3 V - Supports >100 MHz toggle rates in clock distribution or signal conditioning paths. |
| Output Drive (IO) | ±24 mA at VCC = 3.0 V - Sufficient to drive 50 Ω transmission lines or fan-out to ≥10 LVC loads without buffering. |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - Qualified for under-hood automotive modules, industrial PLCs, and extended-temperature power supply monitoring. |
| ESD Protection | HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V - Reduces need for external ESD protection on board-level I/O traces. |
| Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 500 mW max at Tamb ≤98 °C (DHVQFN14) - Thermal performance optimized for compact, sealed enclosures with limited airflow. |
Pinout & Package
DHVQFN14 (SOT762-1) package: 2.5 mm × 3.0 mm × 0.85 mm body, no leads, exposed thermal pad (non-soldered by default), 14 terminals in quad arrangement with terminal 1 index area marked.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 3, 5, 9, 11, 13 | Input (1A–6A) | Schmitt-trigger buffered inputs accepting 0–5.5 V; enable noise-tolerant signal inversion in noisy industrial environments. |
| 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 | Output (1Y–6Y) | CMOS push-pull outputs with rail-to-rail swing and matched rise/fall times (<1.5 ns skew). |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference for all logic and power domains; must be connected to system ground plane for stable noise margin. |
| 14 | VCC | Primary supply input; decoupling capacitor (100 nF) required within 3 mm for transient current stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Schmitt-trigger inputs | Provides hysteresis (typically 0.3–0.5 V) to reject noise on slow edges-critical for switch debouncing or sensor signal conditioning. |
| Overvoltage-tolerant inputs | Withstands 5.5 V regardless of VCC setting-eliminates need for external level translators when interfacing with 5 V microcontrollers or legacy peripherals. |
| Wide VCC range (1.2–3.6 V) | Supports direct use in battery-powered IoT nodes (1.2–1.8 V) and 3.3 V FPGA I/O banks without voltage regulation overhead. |
| Low ICC (0.1 μA typ.) | Reduces quiescent current in always-on monitoring circuits-enables multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries. |
| JEDEC-compliant I/O levels | Fully compatible with TTL, LVTTL, and LVCMOS families across 1.65–3.6 V-ensures interoperability in heterogeneous digital subsystems. |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Interface | Microcontroller I/O Expansion |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Logic-level translator and buffer between 3.3 V MCU outputs and 5 V display driver or relay control circuitry. Use Value: Enables direct 5 V peripheral control without dedicated level-shifter ICs-reducing layout area and power path losses. |
| Automotive Body Control Module | Test Equipment Signal Conditioning |
|
Use Scenario: Interfacing door lock actuator status feedback (5 V open-collector) to 1.8 V domain of vehicle body controller SoC.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar hex inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC04APWR | TSSOP14 package (SOT402-1); same electrical specs but 4.4 mm body width and 0.65 mm pitch-less compact than DHVQFN14. | Limited thermal performance above 81 °C due to lower Ptot derating slope (7.3 mW/K vs. 9.6 mW/K). | Select when board assembly uses standard TSSOP reflow profiles and thermal requirements are moderate. |
| 74AHC04BQ | Higher VCC range (2–5.5 V); no 1.2 V operation; faster tpd (1.9 ns typ. at 5 V) but lacks 5.5 V input tolerance at low VCC. | Not suitable for sub-2 V systems or mixed 3.3 V/5 V translation where input exceeds VCC. | Prefer only in pure 5 V domains requiring maximum speed and where input voltage never exceeds VCC. |
Compared with SN74LVC04APWR and 74AHC04BQ, the 74LVC04ABQ,115 uniquely combines ultra-compact DHVQFN14 packaging, 1.2 V minimum operation, and universal 5.5 V input tolerance-making it optimal for space-constrained, multi-rail industrial and automotive control modules.

FAQ
Can 74LVC04ABQ,115 operate with VCC = 1.2 V while accepting 5 V inputs?
Yes. The device guarantees full functionality-including Schmitt-trigger behavior and specified propagation delay-at VCC = 1.2 V, and its inputs tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of supply voltage. This is verified per Table 4 (Limiting Values) and Table 5 (Recommended Operating Conditions) in the official Nexperia datasheet Rev. 13.
Is the exposed thermal pad on the DHVQFN14 package electrically connected?
No. Per Figure 5 and associated note (1) in the datasheet, the exposed pad is not electrically tied to any internal node. It may remain floating or be connected to GND for thermal enhancement-but soldering is optional and imposes no electrical requirement.
What is the maximum output skew between any two inverters in the same 74LVC04ABQ,115 package?
The maximum output skew (tsk(o)) is 1.5 ns over -40 °C to +125 °C at VCC = 3.0–3.6 V, as specified in Table 7 (Dynamic Characteristics). This value is guaranteed by design and applies to simultaneous switching of any two gates within the same IC.
Does 74LVC04ABQ,115 support hot insertion or live I/O swapping?
No. While inputs are overvoltage-tolerant, the device does not incorporate bus-hold, power-up 3-state, or hot-swap protection circuitry. Applying input signals before VCC stabilization may cause latch-up or excessive ICC, as stated in Section 7 (Limiting Values) regarding VI and VCC sequencing constraints.
