Nexperia USA Inc. 74LVC10APW,118

Overview

74LVC10APW,118 from Nexperia is a triple 3-input NAND gate logic IC operating from 1.2 V to 3.6 V supply, with 5.5 V-tolerant inputs enabling mixed-voltage level translation between 3.3 V and 5 V systems. It delivers propagation delays as low as 1.5 ns at 3.0 V–3.6 V, supports -40 °C to +125 °C ambient operation, and features CMOS low-power consumption with ±24 mA output drive capability - deployed in digital control sequencing and bus interface logic.

For engineers reviewing the 74LVC10APW,118 datasheet, 74LVC10APW,118 pinout, 74LVC10APW,118 application, or 74LVC10APW,118 equivalent, this device is selected for high-noise-immunity combinational logic in industrial I/O modules, FPGA configuration interfaces, and voltage-level-agnostic signal conditioning where deterministic NAND functionality and input overvoltage tolerance are required.

Technical Context

The 74LVC10APW implements three independent 3-input NAND gates with identical electrical behavior across all channels. Its input structure accepts voltages up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC (1.2 V–3.6 V), enabling direct interfacing with legacy 5 V TTL outputs without external level shifters.

Propagation delay is characterized per gate with tpd = 1.5 ns (min) / 6.6 ns (max) at VCC = 3.0 V–3.6 V and -40 °C to +125 °C, while static thresholds VIH = 2.0 V and VIL = 0.8 V (at VCC ≥ 2.7 V) ensure robust noise margins in noisy industrial environments.

FAQ

Can 74LVC10APW,118 operate reliably at 1.2 V supply?

Yes. The device is fully specified down to 1.2 V VCC with guaranteed VIH = 1.08 V and VOL ≤ 0.12 V at IO = 4 mA, enabling use in energy-harvesting and battery-critical applications where other LVC variants require ≥1.65 V.

Is the TSSOP14 package (SOT402-1) lead-free and RoHS compliant?

Yes. The 74LVC10APW,118 uses a lead-free, halogen-free, RoHS-compliant TSSOP14 package per Nexperia's product compliance documentation dated January 2024, with JEDEC-standard solder reflow profiles applicable.

What is the maximum capacitive load the outputs can drive while maintaining timing specs?

The datasheet specifies test conditions up to 50 pF load capacitance with 500 Ω termination. At 3.3 V and 25 °C, output timing remains within spec up to 50 pF; beyond that, propagation delay increases linearly per CPD = 8.8 pF and load-dependent slew rate degradation.

Does the device require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on unused inputs?

No. Unused inputs must be tied to VCC or GND to prevent floating states and increased ICC. The datasheet explicitly prohibits leaving inputs unconnected due to CMOS input structure susceptibility to noise-induced shoot-through current.
