Nexperia USA Inc. 74LVC2G86GS,115

Overview

74LVC2G86GS,115 from Nexperia is a dual 2-input EXCLUSIVE-OR gate in XSON8 package (SOT1203), operating from 1.65 V to 5.5 V supply, featuring IOFF partial power-down protection, Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity, and ±24 mA output drive at 3.0 V - used in level translation between 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains in industrial control I/O interfaces.

For engineers reviewing the 74LVC2G86GS,115 datasheet, 74LVC2G86GS,115 pinout, 74LVC2G86GS,115 application, or 74LVC2G86GS,115 equivalent, this device serves as a low-power, overvoltage-tolerant XOR logic translator with verified -40 °C to +125 °C operation, IOFF-enabled system power sequencing, and JEDEC-compliant voltage interface standards across multiple supply rails.

Technical Context

This device implements two independent CMOS XOR gates with Schmitt-trigger inputs, enabling robust signal conditioning for slow-rising or noisy digital signals. Each gate accepts input voltages up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC, supporting mixed-voltage domain interfacing without external biasing.

The IOFF circuit actively disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, blocking backflow current during hot-insertion or partial power-down sequences. Propagation delay ranges from 0.6 ns (at 5 V) to 9.9 ns (at 1.65 V), with guaranteed timing across -40 °C to +125 °C ambient.

FAQ

Does 74LVC2G86GS,115 support true bidirectional level translation?

No - it is a unidirectional logic gate with overvoltage-tolerant inputs, not a dedicated bidirectional translator like TXB or ADG series devices. Its inputs accept 0–5.5 V regardless of VCC, but outputs swing only between GND and VCC. For true bidirectional translation, a separate device with auto-direction sensing is required.

Can 74LVC2G86GS,115 be operated at 1.5 V supply?

No - the absolute minimum recommended supply is 1.65 V per Table 6. At 1.5 V, VIH/VIL thresholds become undefined, propagation delay exceeds specification, and output drive falls outside guaranteed limits. Operation below 1.65 V risks functional failure and is outside JEDEC qualification.

What is the maximum capacitive load this device can drive reliably?

Based on dynamic characteristics and CPD = 15.8 pF, the device reliably drives ≤50 pF loads at 10 MHz with <5% duty-cycle distortion. At 100 MHz, load should be limited to ≤15 pF to maintain tPLH/tPHL within 4.5 ns max at 5 V. Exceeding these values increases propagation skew and rise/fall time degradation.

Is the SOT1203 package lead-free and RoHS compliant?

Yes - the 74LVC2G86GS,115 in SOT1203 packaging is manufactured per Nexperia's standard lead-free process, fully compliant with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, with homogeneous lead content <1000 ppm and no intentionally added restricted substances.
