Product details
Overview
74LVC2G125GD,125 from NXP Semiconductors is a dual non-inverting 3-state buffer with 1.65 V to 5.5 V supply range, ±24 mA output drive, and 3.7 ns typical propagation delay at 3.3 V. It operates in industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +125 °C) and is used in voltage-level translated data bus isolation for mixed-voltage microcontroller interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC2G125GD,125 datasheet, 74LVC2G125GD,125 pinout, 74LVC2G125GD,125 application, or 74LVC2G125GD,125 equivalent, key selection criteria include bus hold immunity, power supply voltage compatibility across 1.8 V/3.3 V/5 V domains, and guaranteed 3-state leakage current below 10 µA.
Technical Context
This device implements two independent non-inverting buffers, each with separate 3-state control (1OE, 2OE) enabling bidirectional bus isolation. Each channel supports IOH/IOL = ±24 mA at VCC = 3.3 V and exhibits rail-to-rail input switching thresholds (VIH = 0.7×VCC, VIL = 0.3×VCC).
Designed for low-voltage CMOS logic interfacing, it features ESD protection exceeding 4 kV HBM and operates with static power dissipation under 10 µA at 25 °C. The input structure tolerates voltages up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level, supporting true overvoltage-tolerant operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - enables interoperability across 1.8 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic domains without level shifters |
| Propagation Delay | 3.7 ns @ VCC = 3.3 V - supports >100 MHz data rates in buffered address/data paths |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA @ VCC = 3.3 V - drives 15 pF loads with <10% overshoot and clean edge integrity |
| 3-State Leakage | <10 µA @ VCC = 3.3 V - prevents unintended bus loading during high-impedance state |
| Input Overvoltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V independent of VCC - allows safe connection to higher-voltage peripherals without external clamping |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control environments |
Pinout & Package
Supplied in ultra-small 8-pin XSON8 (2 × 1.35 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) package with wettable flank terminations for automated optical inspection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (1A) | Channel 1 Input | CMOS-compatible input accepting 1.65–5.5 V signals regardless of VCC |
| 2 (1Y) | Channel 1 Output | Active-high non-inverting output with 3-state capability controlled by pin 3 |
| 3 (1OE) | Channel 1 Output Enable | Active-low enable; pulls output to high-impedance when logic high |
| 4 (GND) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all internal logic and I/O current |
| 5 (2OE) | Channel 2 Output Enable | Independent active-low enable for second buffer channel |
| 6 (2Y) | Channel 2 Output | Active-high non-inverting output with 3-state capability controlled by pin 5 |
| 7 (2A) | Channel 2 Input | Second independent CMOS input with identical voltage tolerance as pin 1 |
| 8 (VCC) | Power Supply | Single supply input supporting 1.65–5.5 V; powers both channels and I/O structures |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Overvoltage-tolerant inputs | Accepts up to 5.5 V on any input while VCC = 1.65 V - eliminates need for external voltage translators in mixed-supply systems |
| Low dynamic power consumption | Typical ICC = 10 µA at 25 °C and DC - reduces quiescent current in always-on interface circuits |
| Guaranteed 3-state off-leakage | <10 µA max at VCC = 3.3 V and TA = 125 °C - ensures reliable bus release in hot industrial environments |
| Wettable flank package | XSON8 with side-wettable flanks - enables automated AOI verification of solder joint quality in high-reliability PCB assembly |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual 3-state buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC2G125DPWR | Same logic function but in 8-pin USON package (2 × 2 mm); slightly higher propagation delay (4.2 ns) | Larger footprint and no wettable flanks - less suitable for AOI-critical automotive production | Preferred where board space permits and optical inspection is not required |
| 74AUP2G125GW,125 | Lower static current (0.5 µA), wider VCC range (0.8–3.6 V), but max VIN = 3.6 V - no 5 V tolerance | Not suitable for 5 V peripheral interfacing; limited to sub-3.6 V systems only | Select only for ultra-low-power battery-operated devices with no overvoltage requirement |
Compared with SN74LVC2G125DPWR and 74AUP2G125GW,125, the 74LVC2G125GD,125 uniquely combines 5.5 V input tolerance, wettable flank packaging, and industrial temperature rating - making it optimal for mixed-voltage automotive and industrial bus isolation where reliability and manufacturability are critical.

FAQ
Is the 74LVC2G125GD,125 compatible with 1.8 V microcontrollers?
Yes. Its 1.65 V minimum supply voltage and rail-to-rail input thresholds (VIL = 0.3×VCC, VIH = 0.7×VCC) ensure reliable recognition of 1.8 V logic levels. Inputs tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC, allowing safe connection to higher-voltage peripherals without external components.
Does this device support hot insertion or live bus connection?
No. While inputs are overvoltage-tolerant, the device lacks powered-off protection (IOFF) or bus-hold functionality. Connecting to an active bus while VCC is unpowered may cause latch-up or excessive current flow. Power sequencing must ensure VCC is stable before applying input signals.
What is the maximum capacitive load this buffer can drive reliably?
It is characterized to drive up to 15 pF loads with specified propagation delay and output rise/fall times. Driving >15 pF increases delay nonlinearly and may degrade edge monotonicity. For heavier loads, add series termination or use higher-drive variants like 74LVC2G241.
Can both output enables be tied together for synchronized control?
Yes. Pins 3 (1OE) and 5 (2OE) are electrically independent but share identical logic behavior (active-low). They may be connected to a single controller GPIO or pull-up/pull-down network to enable/disable both channels simultaneously without timing skew or functional conflict.
