Product details
Overview
74LVC373ABQ-Q100 from Nexperia is an automotive-grade octal D-type transparent latch with 3-state outputs, latch enable (LE) and output enable (OE) controls, 1.2 V to 3.6 V supply operation, 5.5 V overvoltage-tolerant I/O, and Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity. It functions as a data latching and bus isolation device in automotive body control modules requiring mixed-voltage interfacing between 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V sensors.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC373ABQ-Q100 datasheet, 74LVC373ABQ-Q100 pinout, 74LVC373ABQ-Q100 application, or 74LVC373ABQ-Q100 equivalent, this device supports AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification (-40 °C to +125 °C), IOFF partial power-down protection, and DHVQFN20 side-wettable flank packaging for automated optical inspection in high-reliability automotive PCB assembly.
Technical Context
This latch operates in two primary modes: transparent mode when LE is HIGH (output Qn follows Dn in real time), and latched mode when LE transitions LOW (captures and holds Dn values at setup time). OE independently controls 3-state output impedance without affecting internal latch state.
Schmitt-trigger inputs tolerate slow rise/fall times and ensure robust switching across voltage domains; IOFF circuitry disables outputs and blocks backflow current when VCC = 0 V, enabling safe hot-insertion and partial power-down in multi-rail automotive systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 1.2 V to 3.6 V - enables direct interface with 1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V logic families without level shifters. |
| I/O Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - allows connection to legacy 5 V peripherals while powered from 3.3 V rails, simplifying mixed-voltage board design. |
| Propagation Delay (D→Q) | 1.5 ns to 8.5 ns (VCC = 3.0–3.6 V) - ensures sub-10 ns timing margin for high-speed data capture in CAN/LIN gateway interfaces. |
| IOFF Leakage Current | ±10 μA max at VCC = 0 V - prevents damaging back-current during system power sequencing or module hot-swap events. |
| ESD Protection | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - meets automotive ESD robustness requirements for under-hood and infotainment environments. |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for engine bay, transmission control, and ADAS sensor interface applications. |
| Output Drive Strength | ±24 mA (VCC = 3.0 V) - sufficient to drive multiple CMOS/TTL loads or short PCB traces without external buffers. |
Pinout & Package
DHVQFN20 package (SOT764-1), 2.5 × 4.5 × 0.85 mm body, side-wettable flanks for AOI-compatible solder joint inspection, no leads, thermal pad exposed on underside.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OE (Output Enable) | Active-LOW control: drives all eight outputs to high-impedance when HIGH; does not affect latch state. |
| 2–9, 12–19 | D0–D7 / Q0–Q7 | Eight bidirectional data paths: Dn inputs feed latches; Qn outputs reflect latched or transparent data per LE state. |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference (0 V); thermal pad beneath package must be connected to GND plane for thermal and EMI performance. |
| 11 | LE (Latch Enable) | Active-HIGH control: HIGH enables transparency; LOW-to-HIGH transition captures Dn values at setup time. |
| 20 | VCC | Core supply input (1.2–3.6 V); decoupling capacitor (100 nF) required within 5 mm of pin for stable switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for automotive use from -40 °C to +125 °C ambient, including temperature cycling, humidity, and vibration stress testing. |
| 5.5 V tolerant I/O with 1.2 V core | Eliminates need for discrete level translators when interfacing 3.3 V MCUs with 5 V analog front-ends or legacy sensors. |
| IOFF partial power-down protection | Automatically disables outputs and blocks reverse current when VCC is unpowered, preventing damage during power sequencing faults. |
| Schmitt-trigger inputs | Provides hysteresis (typically 0.3–0.5 V) to reject noise on slow-rising signals from mechanical switches or long harness runs. |
| DHVQFN20 with side-wettable flanks | Enables automated optical inspection of solder joints on bottom-side terminals, improving manufacturing yield in automotive SMT lines. |
Applications
| Body Control Module (BCM) | Instrument Cluster Interface |
|---|---|

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the 74LVC373ABQ-Q100 can tolerate on its I/O pins?
The device supports up to 5.5 V on all input and output pins regardless of VCC level, enabling safe interfacing with 5 V peripherals while operating from a 1.2 V to 3.6 V supply. This overvoltage tolerance is guaranteed across the full -40 °C to +125 °C temperature range and does not require external clamping diodes.
How does the IOFF feature protect the device during partial power-down?
When VCC = 0 V, the IOFF circuitry automatically disables all outputs and blocks current flow between powered and unpowered sections of the system. Measured IOFF leakage is ≤±10 μA at 5.5 V applied to I/O pins, preventing back-current damage during power sequencing, sleep mode transitions, or hot-swap events in automotive modules.
Can the 74LVC373ABQ-Q100 operate reliably at 1.2 V supply voltage?
Yes - the device is fully specified down to 1.2 V VCC, with guaranteed propagation delay (≤14 ns), output drive (≥±4 mA), and input thresholds (VIH ≥ 1.08 V, VIL ≤ 0.12 V) at that voltage. All static and dynamic parameters in Tables 6 and 7 include 1.2 V test conditions, confirming functional operation in ultra-low-power automotive subsystems.
Is the DHVQFN20 package compatible with standard reflow profiles for lead-free soldering?
Yes - the SOT764-1 package is qualified for IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3 and supports standard lead-free reflow profiles (peak 260 °C, 60 s above 217 °C).
