Nexperia USA Inc. 74LVC1G02GM,115

Overview

74LVC1G02GM,115 from Nexperia is a single 2-input NOR gate logic IC in XSON6 (SOT886) package, operating from 1.65 V to 5.5 V supply, featuring Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity, IOFF partial power-down protection, and ±24 mA output drive at 3.0 V - used in level translation between 3.3 V and 5 V domains in portable interface circuits.

For engineers reviewing the 74LVC1G02GM,115 datasheet, 74LVC1G02GM,115 pinout, 74LVC1G02GM,115 application, or 74LVC1G02GM,115 equivalent, key selection criteria include input overvoltage tolerance to 5.5 V, guaranteed operation from –40 °C to +125 °C, propagation delay as low as 0.5 ns at 5 V, and compatibility with TTL-level inputs across all supply voltages.

Technical Context

This device implements standard positive-logic NOR functionality (Y = NOT(A OR B)) with Schmitt-trigger inputs enabling robust operation with slow-rising signals and high noise immunity. The IOFF circuit actively disables outputs during power-down, blocking backflow current when VCC = 0 V.

It supports mixed-voltage interfacing: inputs tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC (1.65–5.5 V), allowing direct connection to 5 V drivers while powered from 3.3 V or lower. All static and dynamic specifications are fully characterized from –40 °C to +125 °C.

FAQ

Can 74LVC1G02GM,115 safely interface a 5 V microcontroller GPIO to a 3.3 V FPGA input?

Yes - its inputs tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC, so with VCC = 3.3 V, it accepts 5 V logic highs from the microcontroller and outputs clean 0 V / 3.3 V levels compatible with the FPGA. No series resistor or level shifter is needed, provided the FPGA input clamp diodes are not forward-biased.

Does the n.c. pin on the SOT886 package require PCB connection or grounding?

No - Pin 5 is internally unconnected and must remain floating on the PCB. It is not a thermal pad, ground tie, or test point. Routing traces or applying solder to this terminal may cause mechanical stress or unintended coupling; leave it unconnected per Nexperia's assembly guidelines.

What is the maximum capacitive load this device can drive while maintaining specified tpd?

At VCC = 3.3 V and Tamb = 25 °C, the device maintains tpd ≤4.5 ns (max) into 50 pF load per Figure 5 test conditions. For loads >30 pF, edge rate degrades - keep total net capacitance (including trace, probe, and input CI ≈5 pF) below 25 pF for guaranteed sub-3 ns delay in production layouts.

Is IOFF functionality active when VCC is ramping during power-up or power-down sequences?

Yes - the IOFF circuit activates when VCC falls below ~0.8 V and remains active until VCC exceeds ~1.2 V, ensuring output disable across the entire power transition window. This prevents glitch-induced backdrive during brown-out or controlled shutdown, verified per JEDEC JESD78 latch-up and IOFF characterization.
