Product details
Overview
74LVC08APW/AUJ from Nexperia is a quad 2-input AND gate logic IC operating from 1.2 V to 3.6 V supply, featuring overvoltage-tolerant inputs up to 5.5 V and Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity in mixed-voltage systems. It delivers propagation delays as low as 1.0 ns at 3.3 V and supports industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +125 °C) in TSSOP14 package.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC08APW/AUJ datasheet, 74LVC08APW/AUJ pinout, 74LVC08APW/AUJ application, or 74LVC08APW/AUJ equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, validated TSSOP14 pin mapping, confirmed voltage translation capability between 3.3 V and 5 V domains, real-world timing performance data, and two rigorously cross-checked alternative parts with documented functional and packaging differences.
Technical Context
The 74LVC08APW/AUJ implements four independent 2-input AND gates using CMOS technology with Schmitt-trigger inputs on all channels, enabling robust operation with slow-rising or noisy signals. Its input structure tolerates voltages up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level (1.2–3.6 V), allowing direct interfacing with both 3.3 V and 5 V logic families without level shifters.
Each gate exhibits matched propagation delay (tpd ≤ 4.8 ns at VCC = 2.7 V), output skew ≤ 1.5 ns, and low dynamic power dissipation (CPD = 10.5 pF at 3.0–3.6 V). The device complies with JEDEC standards JESD8-7A, JESD8-5A, and JESD8-C/JESD36 across its full operating voltage range.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC08APWR (TI) | Identical logic function, same TSSOP14 package (PW), but rated only to +85 °C ambient; lower ESD rating (HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 250 V) | Not qualified for extended temperature use in motor drives or outdoor infrastructure | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs extended temperature requirement and CDM robustness is non-critical |
| 74AHC08PW,118 (Nexperia) | Same pinout and package, but higher VCC range (2–5.5 V); no 5.5 V input tolerance; propagation delay ~6.5 ns at 5 V | Requires external level shifting for 5 V → 3.3 V interfacing; unsuitable for mixed-supply translation | Prefer when system operates exclusively at 5 V and lower static power (ICC < 2 μA) is prioritized over voltage flexibility |
Compared with SN74LVC08APWR, the 74LVC08APW/AUJ offers superior thermal qualification and CDM robustness; compared with 74AHC08PW,118, it uniquely enables 5 V input tolerance at 3.3 V VCC-making it the only option among the three that supports true bidirectional voltage translation without additional components.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the 74LVC08APW/AUJ can safely accept?
The 74LVC08APW/AUJ accepts input voltages up to 5.5 V on any input pin, regardless of the VCC supply level (1.2–3.6 V). This overvoltage tolerance is explicitly guaranteed in the datasheet limiting values table and enables direct interfacing with 5 V logic without external protection components. Operation above 5.5 V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Does the 74LVC08APW/AUJ support operation at 1.2 V supply?
Yes, the 74LVC08APW/AUJ is fully specified down to 1.2 V VCC, with functional operation confirmed across −40 °C to +125 °C. At 1.2 V, typical propagation delay is 11.0 ns and output drive capability is reduced (IO = ±4 mA), making it suitable for ultra-low-power standby logic or battery-backed subsystems where speed is secondary to energy efficiency.
Is the 74LVC08APW/AUJ pin-compatible with other 74LVC08 variants?
Yes, the 74LVC08APW/AUJ shares identical pinout (SOT402-1/TSSOP14) and logic function with all 74LVC08A variants in the same package type, including 74LVC08AD (SO14) and 74LVC08ABQ (DHVQFN14). Pin numbering, terminal roles (1A–4Y, GND, VCC), and electrical behavior are functionally identical-only package mechanicals and thermal characteristics differ.
What is the significance of Schmitt-trigger inputs on the 74LVC08APW/AUJ?
Schmitt-trigger inputs on the 74LVC08APW/AUJ provide hysteresis (≥0.3 V at 3.3 V), making the device tolerant of slow-rising/falling signals and noise on long PCB traces or high-impedance nodes. This eliminates the need for external RC filters in applications like pushbutton debouncing, analog comparator outputs, or legacy bus signals with poor edge rates.
Can the 74LVC08APW/AUJ be used in automotive applications?
The 74LVC08APW/AUJ is not automotive-qualified per AEC-Q100. While it operates from −40 °C to +125 °C-matching many under-hood temperature requirements-it lacks automotive-specific stress testing, failure analysis reporting, and PPAP documentation. For automotive use, Nexperia offers AEC-Q100 qualified equivalents such as the 74LVC08APW-Q100.
