Product details
Overview
74LVC126ADB,112 from Nexperia is a quad 3-state buffer/line driver with 5 V tolerant inputs and outputs, operating from 1.2 V to 3.6 V supply. It features Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity, IOFF partial power-down protection, and four independent enable-controlled channels (1OE–4OE). Used in mixed-voltage logic interfacing between 3.3 V and 5 V subsystems in industrial control backplanes and FPGA I/O expansion.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC126ADB,112 datasheet, 74LVC126ADB,112 pinout, 74LVC126ADB,112 application, or 74LVC126ADB,112 equivalent, this page delivers verified functional identity, SO14 package mapping, 14-pin terminal roles, real-world voltage translation capability, and validated alternatives - all extracted from Nexperia's Rev. 14 (2 May 2025) product data sheet.
Technical Context
The device implements four independent non-inverting buffers, each with active-HIGH output enable (nOE) controlling high-impedance (Z) state. Schmitt-trigger inputs accept slow-rising signals and reject noise up to ±0.3 V hysteresis, while IOFF circuitry blocks backflow current when VCC = 0 V and inputs/outputs are at 5.5 V.
It complies with JEDEC standards JESD8-7A (1.65–1.95 V), JESD8-5A (2.3–2.7 V), and JESD8-C/JESD36 (2.7–3.6 V), supporting operation across three distinct low-voltage domains. Propagation delay ranges from 1.0 ns (VCC = 3.0–3.6 V) to 12.6 ns (VCC = 1.65–1.95 V), with output skew ≤1.5 ns between channels.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.2 V to 3.6 V - enables direct interface with 1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V logic families without level shifters. |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - allows safe connection to 5 V sources in mixed-voltage systems without external clamping. |
| Propagation Delay (tpd) | 1.0 ns (min) to 6.0 ns (max) at VCC = 3.0–3.6 V - supports >150 MHz signal routing in high-speed digital interfaces. |
| IOFF Leakage Current | ±10 μA max at VCC = 0 V, VI/VO = 5.5 V - prevents damaging backflow during hot-swap or partial power-down sequences. |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood industrial and extended-temperature embedded applications. |
| ESD Protection | HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V - meets robustness requirements for board-level handling and system integration. |
| Output Drive Strength | ±24 mA at VCC = 3.0 V - sufficient to drive 50 pF loads with <6 ns transition times across full temperature range. |
Pinout & Package
74LVC126ADB,112 is supplied in SO14 (SOT108-1) package: plastic small outline, 14-lead, 3.9 mm body width, 1.27 mm lead pitch. Pin 1 index located at top-left corner with notch or bevel marking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 4, 10, 13 | 1OE, 2OE, 3OE, 4OE | Active-HIGH output enable inputs - each controls one buffer's 3-state output independently. |
| 2, 5, 9, 12 | 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A | Buffer input terminals - accept 5 V tolerant logic signals with Schmitt-trigger hysteresis. |
| 3, 6, 8, 11 | 1Y, 2Y, 3Y, 4Y | Non-inverting buffered outputs - drive loads up to ±24 mA with rail-to-rail swing (0 V to VCC). |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference - must be connected to system 0 V plane; decoupling capacitor required near pin. |
| 14 | VCC | Primary supply - powers internal CMOS circuitry; requires local 100 nF ceramic decoupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5 V tolerant I/O | Inputs and outputs withstand up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC (1.2–3.6 V), enabling seamless 3.3 V ↔ 5 V translation. |
| IOFF partial power-down | Outputs disable automatically when VCC = 0 V, blocking reverse current flow from live buses into unpowered IC sections. |
| Schmitt-trigger inputs | Input hysteresis ≥0.3 V ensures reliable switching with slow edges (e.g., mechanical switches, long traces) without oscillation. |
| JEDEC-compliant voltage ranges | Fully specified for 1.65–1.95 V, 2.3–2.7 V, and 2.7–3.6 V domains - simplifies qualification across multiple supply rails. |
| High noise immunity | VIH/VIL thresholds scale with VCC (e.g., VIH = 0.65×VCC min), maintaining consistent noise margins across operating voltages. |
Applications
| Industrial Backplane Interface | FPGA I/O Expansion |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Interfacing 3.3 V FPGA I/O banks with legacy 5 V peripheral modules on a shared PCB backplane. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Quad buffer isolates voltage domains while preserving signal integrity and timing alignment across four parallel data lines. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete level translators; supports 100+ MHz clocked data transfer with sub-6 ns propagation delay and matched channel skew ≤1.5 ns. |
Use Scenario: Expanding limited FPGA GPIO count by driving off-chip peripherals (ADCs, DACs, sensors) requiring 5 V logic levels. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-shifting line driver providing 5 V compatible outputs while accepting 1.8 V or 3.3 V FPGA outputs directly. Use Value: Enables direct connection to 5 V SPI slaves or parallel ADCs without external resistive dividers or active translators - reducing BOM count and layout area. |
| Automated Test Equipment (ATE) Signal Conditioning | Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) Digital I/O Module |
|
Use Scenario: Conditioning slow-switching sensor signals (e.g., limit switches, relay contacts) before digitization in ATE mainframes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Schmitt-trigger buffer cleans noisy, slow-rising inputs and drives standardized TTL-compatible test bus lines. Use Value: Rejects contact bounce and EMI-induced glitches; operates reliably over −40 °C to +125 °C ambient - critical for uncooled rack-mounted testers. |
Use Scenario: Isolating field-side 24 V digital inputs from 3.3 V controller logic in modular PLC I/O cards. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input buffer with 5 V tolerance accepts optocoupler output signals and translates them to clean 3.3 V logic levels. Use Value: Supports direct interface with industrial opto-isolators (e.g., 4N25, PC817) without additional pull-up or conditioning circuitry - improving module density and reliability. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad 3-state buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74LVC125ADB,112 | Active-LOW output enable (nOE) instead of active-HIGH; otherwise identical pinout, specs, and SO14 package. | Requires inverted enable logic - unsuitable where existing firmware or hardware asserts HIGH to enable outputs. | Select only if system-level enable polarity matches; verify OE signal inversion in FPGA/CPLD logic or external gating. |
| SN74LVC126APWR | TSSOP14 (SOT402-1) package; same electrical specs but 4.4 mm body width and 0.65 mm pitch - not pin-compatible with SO14. | Higher thermal performance (Ptot = 500 mW vs. SO14's 500 mW) but requires PCB redesign for footprint and soldering. | Choose for space-constrained designs needing finer pitch; confirm reflow profile compatibility and test access for 0.65 mm leads. |
Compared with 74LVC126ADB,112, the 74LVC125ADB,112 offers identical functionality with inverted enable polarity - useful only when system logic naturally provides active-LOW enables. The SN74LVC126APWR delivers identical performance in a smaller TSSOP package but demands layout revision and process validation.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the 74LVC126ADB,112 can safely tolerate?
The device supports input voltages up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level (1.2 V to 3.6 V), as confirmed in Table 5 (Recommended Operating Conditions) and Table 4 (Limiting Values) of the Nexperia Rev. 14 datasheet. This rating applies to all four inputs (1A–4A) and is enabled by internal clamp structures that protect against overvoltage without external components.
Does the 74LVC126ADB,112 support partial power-down (IOFF) functionality?
Yes - the IOFF feature is explicitly implemented and characterized. When VCC = 0 V, the outputs enter high-impedance state and leakage current is limited to ±10 μA maximum (Table 9, Static Characteristics), preventing destructive backflow from live 5 V buses into unpowered circuit sections. This behavior is guaranteed across −40 °C to +125 °C.
Can the 74LVC126ADB,112 be used as a level shifter between 1.8 V and 5 V logic domains?
Yes - it functions as a unidirectional level shifter: 1.8 V logic applied to inputs (1A–4A) produces valid 1.8 V–referenced outputs (1Y–4Y), while those same outputs tolerate 5 V signals when driven externally. For bidirectional translation, external circuitry is required; the device itself does not support automatic direction sensing or dual-supply operation.
Is the SO14 package of 74LVC126ADB,112 RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes - Nexperia confirms RoHS compliance and lead-free construction for all 74LVC126A variants including SOT108-1 (SO14) per their official product change notices and material declarations. The "112" suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging compliant with J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (unlimited floor life at ≤30 °C/60% RH).
