Nexperia USA Inc. 74LVC2G06GM,132

Overview

74LVC2G06GM,132 from Nexperia is a dual CMOS inverter with open-drain outputs, designed for level translation between 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains. It features Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity, IOFF partial power-down protection, and operates across 1.65 V to 5.5 V supply. Used in I²C bus buffering, GPIO expansion, and mixed-voltage interface circuits.

For engineers reviewing the 74LVC2G06GM,132 datasheet, 74LVC2G06GM,132 pinout, 74LVC2G06GM,132 application, or 74LVC2G06GM,132 equivalent, key selection criteria include open-drain drive capability (–24 mA at 3.0 V), IOFF-enabled backflow prevention during power sequencing, Schmitt-trigger input hysteresis, wide VCC range (1.65–5.5 V), and –40 °C to +125 °C industrial temperature rating.

Technical Context

This device implements two independent inverting buffers, each with an open-drain output requiring external pull-up. Inputs accept overvoltage-tolerant signals up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC, enabling bidirectional voltage translation without direction control logic. The IOFF circuit actively disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, blocking reverse current flow through powered-down systems.

Schmitt-trigger inputs provide 0.3–0.4 V hysteresis (depending on VCC), allowing reliable operation with slow-rising signals such as RC-debounced switches or long PCB traces. Propagation delay ranges from 0.5 ns (at 5 V) to 8.2 ns (at 1.65 V, –40 °C to +125 °C), supporting both high-speed and low-power timing requirements.

FAQ

Can 74LVC2G06GM,132 drive a 5 V pull-up resistor while operating at 3.3 V VCC?

Yes. Its inputs are overvoltage tolerant up to 5.5 V, and its open-drain outputs can sink current from any pull-up voltage ≤5.5 V, regardless of VCC. This allows direct use in I²C buses with 5 V pull-ups while the device runs from 3.3 V, eliminating external level shifters.

Does the IOFF feature require external control signals?

No. IOFF activates automatically when VCC drops to 0 V. No enable pin or external logic is needed-the internal circuitry detects VCC loss and disables output FETs to block reverse current, making it ideal for hot-plug and multi-rail power sequencing.

What is the minimum recommended pull-up resistor value for 1Y/2Y at 3.3 V?

For a 3.3 V pull-up and 24 mA sink capability, the absolute minimum is ~138 Ω (3.3 V ÷ 24 mA). However, typical designs use 1–10 kΩ to limit power dissipation and ensure rise time compliance with I²C or GPIO timing budgets.

How does Schmitt-trigger input behavior affect timing specifications?

Schmitt-trigger inputs introduce fixed hysteresis (~0.35 V at 3.3 V), which increases effective input transition threshold spread but eliminates metastability from slow edges. Propagation delay values in the datasheet already account for this behavior under defined test conditions.
