Product details
Overview
74LVC1G126GXH from Nexperia is a single 3-state bus buffer/line driver with Schmitt-trigger inputs, designed for level translation between 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains in mixed-voltage systems. It features ±24 mA output drive at VCC = 3.0 V, IOFF partial power-down protection, and operates across -40 °C to +125 °C. Used in industrial I/O expansion, sensor interface signal conditioning, and FPGA/CPU peripheral buffering.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC1G126GXH datasheet, 74LVC1G126GXH pinout, 74LVC1G126GXH application, or 74LVC1G126GXH equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, X2SON5 package layout, real-world use cases, and validated alternative options - all grounded in Nexperia's Rev. 18.1 product data sheet (Sept. 2024).
Technical Context
This device implements a non-inverting buffer with active-high 3-state control (OE), enabling bidirectional bus isolation in compact digital subsystems. Its Schmitt-trigger inputs tolerate slow-rising signals and improve noise immunity in noisy industrial environments.
The IOFF circuit ensures outputs enter high-impedance state when VCC = 0 V, preventing backflow current during hot-insertion or partial power-down sequences - critical for system-level power sequencing integrity.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - supports direct interfacing with 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic families without external level shifters. |
| Output Drive Strength | ±24 mA at VCC = 3.0 V - sufficient to drive 15 pF loads with <6 ns propagation delay, enabling reliable signal integrity on short PCB traces. |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V independent of VCC - allows 5 V-tolerant inputs even when powered from 1.65 V, simplifying mixed-supply domain bridging. |
| Propagation Delay | 0.5–4.5 ns (VCC = 3.0–3.6 V) - meets timing requirements for high-speed control signaling in microcontroller GPIO expansion. |
| IOFF Leakage Current | ±2 μA at VCC = 0 V - limits backfeed current during power-down, protecting upstream drivers and enabling safe hot-swap operation. |
| ESD Protection | HBM >2000 V, CDM >1000 V - exceeds JEDEC JS-001/JS-002 Class 2/C3, reducing susceptibility to handling-induced failures in manufacturing. |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive modules, industrial PLC I/O cards, and outdoor edge computing hardware. |
Pinout & Package
X2SON5 package (SOT1226-3): plastic thermal-enhanced extremely thin small outline, no leads, 5 terminals, body size 0.8 × 0.8 × 0.32 mm, side-wettable flanks not present (distinguishes it from GZ variant).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OE | Active-high output enable input - drives Y to high-impedance when low; must be pulled high or driven actively for normal buffer operation. |
| 2 | VCC | Positive supply rail - decoupling capacitor (100 nF) required within 2 mm for stable switching performance. |
| 3 | GND | Ground reference - shared return path for input, output, and supply currents; requires low-inductance connection to PCB ground plane. |
| 4 | A | Non-inverting data input - accepts TTL- and CMOS-compatible logic levels; Schmitt-trigger threshold improves noise margin on long traces. |
| 5 | Y | 3-state buffered output - presents high-impedance (Z) when OE = L; otherwise replicates A with rail-to-rail swing and ±24 mA drive capability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide Supply Range | 1.65–5.5 V operation enables drop-in replacement across legacy and modern logic families without redesigning power rails. |
| IOFF Partial Power-Down | Prevents damaging backflow current when VCC is off - essential for PCIe add-in cards, modular sensor nodes, and hot-pluggable interfaces. |
| Schmitt-Trigger Inputs | Provides hysteresis (~0.3 V typical at 3.3 V) to reject noise on slow-rising control lines like reset or enable signals in motor drives. |
| 5.5 V-Tolerant Inputs | Eliminates need for external clamping diodes when interfacing with 5 V microcontrollers driving 3.3 V FPGA I/O banks. |
| Low Dynamic Power | CPD = 25 pF (enabled), 6 pF (disabled) - reduces switching power by >75% in standby mode, extending battery life in portable instrumentation. |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Interface | FPGA I/O Expansion |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74LVC1G125GXH | Inverting buffer (A → Y̅); identical pinout, specs, and package. | Requires logic inversion in signal path - unsuitable where polarity must be preserved (e.g., clock distribution). | Select only if system-level logic already accounts for inversion; otherwise, 74LVC1G126GXH maintains signal polarity. |
| SN74LVC1G126DBVR | TSSOP-5 (SOT23-5) package; 1.25 mm body width; 2× larger footprint than X2SON5. | Less suitable for space-constrained designs (e.g., wearables, miniaturized IoT nodes) due to 3.0 × 1.75 mm vs. 0.8 × 0.8 mm area. | Choose SN74LVC1G126DBVR only when board assembly uses standard SMT pick-and-place tooling optimized for SOIC/TSSOP, not X2SON. |
Compared with 74LVC1G126GXH, the 74LVC1G125GXH changes signal polarity but saves no board area, while the SN74LVC1G126DBVR trades 85% smaller footprint for increased PCB real estate usage - making the GXH variant optimal for ultra-dense, thermally constrained layouts.

FAQ
Can 74LVC1G126GXH operate reliably at 1.65 V supply while driving a 5 V-tolerant load?
Yes. The device functions correctly at VCC = 1.65 V and tolerates input voltages up to 5.5 V regardless of supply level. However, output swing is rail-to-rail (0 V to 1.65 V), so it cannot directly drive a 5 V logic input without an external level shifter or pull-up resistor network.
What is the maximum capacitive load the 74LVC1G126GXH can drive at 100 MHz?
At 100 MHz, the recommended load is ≤15 pF to maintain signal integrity within specified tpd and overshoot limits. Driving >20 pF risks exceeding 5.5 ns propagation delay and increases risk of ringing due to trace impedance mismatch - verified using Nexperia's dynamic characteristics test conditions (CL = 30–50 pF, RL = 500 Ω).
Does the X2SON5 package (SOT1226-3) support automated optical inspection (AOI) after reflow?
Yes. The SOT1226-3 package has exposed copper terminals with defined coplanarity (≤0.05 mm) and consistent solder wetting behavior. Its 0.8 mm pitch and side-view accessibility allow standard AOI systems to verify solder joint quality, voiding, and alignment without requiring X-ray inspection.
How does IOFF behavior differ from standard high-impedance disable in partial power-down scenarios?
IOFF actively disables both input and output circuitry when VCC = 0 V, limiting leakage to ±2 μA. Standard 3-state buffers may allow forward-biased input clamps to conduct when VCC is unpowered, risking damage or bus contention - IOFF eliminates this failure mode entirely.
