Nexperia USA Inc. 74LVC2G00DC,125

Overview

74LVC2G00DC from Nexperia is a dual 2-input NAND gate logic IC in VSSOP8 (SOT765-1) package, operating from 1.65 V to 5.5 V supply, with 5 V-tolerant inputs/outputs, ±24 mA output drive at 3.0 V, IOFF partial power-down protection, and Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity in mixed-voltage digital interfaces.

For engineers reviewing the 74LVC2G00DC datasheet, 74LVC2G00DC pinout, 74LVC2G00DC application, or 74LVC2G00DC equivalent, this device serves as a voltage-level translating logic gate in space-constrained industrial control I/O expanders, USB peripheral interface buffers, low-power sensor signal conditioning, and FPGA/CPLD glue logic where rail-to-rail compatibility and power-down isolation are required.

Technical Context

This CMOS dual NAND gate implements two independent 2-input NAND functions with identical input/output electrical behavior across its full 1.65–5.5 V supply range. Its IOFF circuit actively disables outputs during power-down to prevent backflow current, enabling safe hot-insertion in multi-rail systems.

Schmitt-trigger inputs provide hysteresis (typ. 0.3 V at VCC = 3.3 V), allowing robust operation with slow-rising signals from mechanical switches or RC networks. Propagation delay ranges from 0.5 ns (VCC = 5 V) to 10.8 ns (VCC = 1.65 V, Tamb = –40 °C to +125 °C), supporting both high-speed and ultra-low-power timing domains.

FAQ

Can 74LVC2G00DC operate reliably at 1.65 V supply?

Yes. The device is fully specified from 1.65 V to 5.5 V, with VIH minimum of 0.65 × VCC and VOL maximum of 0.45 V at 1.65 V/4 mA load. Propagation delay remains within 8.6 ns (typ.) at this voltage, making it suitable for ultra-low-power microcontroller I/O expansion where 1.8 V rails are unavailable.

Does the IOFF feature require external circuitry to activate?

No. IOFF activates automatically when VCC drops to 0 V. The internal circuitry detects VCC absence and forces outputs into high-impedance state without pull-up/down resistors or control pins. This occurs within nanoseconds of VCC collapse, ensuring immediate isolation of powered subsystems.

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

At VCC = 3.3 V and Tamb = 25 °C, the output maintains tpd ≤ 4.3 ns with CL = 50 pF (per Table 10). Driving >50 pF increases propagation delay nonlinearly and may violate setup/hold margins in synchronous systems-add series termination or buffer stages beyond this limit.

Is the VSSOP8 package (SOT765-1) compatible with standard reflow profiles?

Yes. SOT765-1 is RoHS-compliant and qualified for JEDEC J-STD-020D MSLE Level 1 moisture sensitivity. It supports peak reflow temperatures up to 260 °C for ≤60 seconds and withstands standard Pb-free reflow profiles without delamination or solder joint voiding when using recommended stencil aperture and paste volume.
