Nexperia USA Inc. 74LVC2G06GN,132

Overview

74LVC2G06GN,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 pull-up interfaces and mixed-voltage GPIO signal conditioning.

For engineers reviewing the 74LVC2G06GN,132 datasheet, 74LVC2G06GN,132 pinout, 74LVC2G06GN,132 application, or 74LVC2G06GN,132 equivalent, key selection criteria include open-drain drive strength at 3.0 V (–24 mA), input overvoltage tolerance to 5.5 V, –40 °C to +125 °C operating range, and SOT1115 XSON6 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.

Technical Context

This device implements two independent inverting buffers, each with an open-drain output requiring external pull-up. Inputs accept 3.3 V or 5 V signals regardless of VCC, enabling bidirectional voltage translation without direction control logic. Schmitt-trigger thresholds provide hysteresis (typically 0.3–0.4 V) to suppress noise on slow-rising signals.

The IOFF circuit actively disables both outputs when VCC = 0 V, blocking backflow current from powered rails into the unpowered device. Static and dynamic characteristics are fully specified across –40 °C to +125 °C, with propagation delay as low as 0.5 ns at 5.5 V and 2.9 ns max at 1.65 V.

FAQ

Can 74LVC2G06GN,132 be used as a non-inverting buffer?

No-it is a dual inverter only. Each channel performs logical NOT: low input yields high-impedance output (open-drain), high input yields low output. To achieve non-inverting behavior, pair it with an external pull-up resistor and invert the signal twice (e.g., use both gates in series), but this adds propagation delay and consumes both channels.

What is the maximum capacitive load the 74LVC2G06GN,132 can drive reliably?

At VCC = 3.0 V and Tamb = 25 °C, the device drives up to 30 pF with guaranteed tpd ≤3.4 ns. For 50 pF loads (common in I²C), VOL remains ≤0.8 V at 24 mA sink, satisfying standard I²C voltage thresholds. Exceeding 50 pF increases rise time and may violate timing budgets in high-speed modes.

Does the IOFF feature work when only one supply rail is active?

Yes. IOFF activates whenever VCC = 0 V, regardless of input or output voltage levels. If VCC is unpowered but 1A is driven to 5 V, IOFF disables 1Y to block current flow from 1A into GND through the internal ESD structure-preventing latch-up and damage during partial power-down sequences.

Is the SOT1115 package compatible with standard reflow profiles?

Yes. The SOT1115 (XSON6) package is qualified for IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 and withstands peak reflow temperatures up to 260 °C. Its 0.35 mm height and wettable flanks support automated optical inspection and ensure reliable solder joint formation under standard lead-free reflow profiles.
