Nexperia USA Inc. 74LVC2G08DP,125

Overview

74LVC2G08DP,125 from Nexperia is a dual 2-input AND gate logic IC in TSSOP8 (SOT505-2) package, operating from 1.65 V to 5.5 V supply, featuring 5 V-tolerant outputs, Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity, and IOFF partial power-down protection. It enables level translation between 3.3 V and 5 V domains in mixed-voltage digital interfaces.

For engineers reviewing the 74LVC2G08DP,125 datasheet, 74LVC2G08DP,125 pinout, 74LVC2G08DP,125 application, or 74LVC2G08DP,125 equivalent, this device serves as a robust, low-power combinational logic building block for interface buffering, signal gating, and voltage-domain bridging in space-constrained industrial and consumer systems.

Technical Context

This CMOS dual AND gate implements two independent 2-input positive-logic gates with rail-to-rail input voltage tolerance up to 5.5 V and output drive capability of ±24 mA at VCC = 3.0 V. Its IOFF circuit actively disables outputs during power-down, preventing backflow current when VCC = 0 V.

Schmitt-trigger inputs provide hysteresis (typ. 0.3 V at VCC = 3.3 V), enabling reliable operation with slow-rising signals and high noise immunity. Propagation delay ranges from 0.5 ns (VCC = 5.5 V) to 11.3 ns (VCC = 1.65 V, -40 °C to +125 °C), supporting timing-critical gating in mixed-supply systems.

FAQ

Can 74LVC2G08DP,125 operate with VCC = 1.65 V while driving 5 V-tolerant loads?

Yes - the device is fully specified down to 1.65 V supply and maintains 5 V input/output tolerance across its entire operating range. At VCC = 1.65 V, VOH is guaranteed ≥0.65 × VCC (≥1.07 V), sufficient to meet VIH thresholds of downstream 3.3 V or 5 V CMOS devices when combined with appropriate pull-up resistors or compatible receivers.

Does the IOFF feature require external biasing or control signals?

No - IOFF is fully automatic and requires no external configuration. When VCC drops to 0 V (or is unpowered), the internal circuitry forces all outputs into high-impedance state regardless of input voltage or logic state, eliminating need for external enable/disable logic or isolation FETs in hot-swap architectures.

What is the maximum capacitive load the 74LVC2G08DP,125 can drive reliably at 3.3 V supply?

At VCC = 3.3 V, the device drives up to 30 pF load capacitance with guaranteed tPLH/tPHL ≤5.9 ns (–40 °C to +125 °C). For loads exceeding 30 pF, propagation delay increases linearly; design margin recommends limiting total node capacitance (including trace, via, and receiver input) to ≤25 pF for timing-critical paths.

How does Schmitt-trigger input behavior affect timing analysis?

Schmitt-trigger inputs introduce hysteresis (~0.3 V typical at VCC = 3.3 V), which delays crossing of logic thresholds but improves noise immunity. For timing analysis, use VIH/VIL values from Table 7 (e.g., VIH = 2.0 V min at VCC = 2.7–3.6 V), not nominal 50 % VCC points - this ensures setup/hold margins account for actual switching thresholds under noisy conditions.
