Product details
Overview
74LVC3GU04GS,115 from Nexperia is a triple unbuffered CMOS inverter IC operating from 1.65 V to 5.5 V supply, featuring ±24 mA output drive at 3.0 V, overvoltage-tolerant inputs up to 5.5 V, and guaranteed operation from –40 °C to +125 °C in the XSON8 (SOT1203) package. It enables level-shifting and signal inversion in mixed-voltage digital subsystems such as I²C bus conditioning and clock buffering.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC3GU04GS,115 datasheet, 74LVC3GU04GS,115 pinout, 74LVC3GU04GS,115 application, or 74LVC3GU04GS,115 equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage tolerance across 3.3 V/5 V domains, propagation delay under 3.8 ns at 5 V, output drive strength at low VCC, thermal derating behavior for SOT1203, and compatibility with crystal oscillator and linear amplifier configurations per application note.
Technical Context
This device implements three independent unbuffered inverter stages using standard CMOS logic architecture, with no internal feedback or buffering-enabling direct use in oscillator loops and analog-linear applications. Its input structure supports 5.5 V tolerance regardless of VCC, and its output stage delivers rail-to-rail swing with symmetrical sourcing/sinking capability.
The unbuffered topology eliminates propagation delay doubling and phase inversion artifacts common in buffered inverters, making it suitable for high-frequency crystal oscillator circuits and precision timing feedback paths. Static and dynamic characteristics are fully specified across –40 °C to +125 °C, with power dissipation capacitance (CPD) fixed at 7 pF at 3.3 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - Enables single-supply operation across LVC logic families and interoperability with both 3.3 V and 5 V systems. |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - Allows safe interfacing with higher-voltage controllers without external level shifters or clamping diodes. |
| Output Drive Strength | ±24 mA at VCC = 3.0 V - Supports driving moderate capacitive loads (e.g., PCB traces, multiple gate inputs) without signal degradation. |
| Propagation Delay | Max 3.8 ns at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V - Ensures sub-4 ns timing margin for 100+ MHz clock distribution and fast control signaling. |
| Operating Temperature | –40 °C to +125 °C - Qualified for under-hood automotive modules, industrial PLC I/O, and high-reliability embedded controllers. |
| Power Dissipation Cap. | 7 pF (CPD) - Directly determines dynamic power consumption in high-frequency switching applications (PD = CPD × VCC² × fi × N). |
| ESD Robustness | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - Reduces risk of field failure during handling and board assembly in automated manufacturing. |
Pinout & Package
XSON8 package (SOT1203): extremely thin small outline, no leads, 8-terminal surface-mount design with 1.35 mm × 1.0 mm × 0.35 mm body dimensions and terminal pitch of 0.35 mm. Pin 1 index located on lower-left corner below marking code "YD".
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A, 2A, 3A | Independent logic inputs | Three separate unbuffered inverter inputs; each accepts 0–5.5 V signals regardless of VCC setting. |
| 1Y, 2Y, 3Y | Corresponding logic outputs | Inverted outputs with rail-to-rail swing; each capable of sourcing/sinking up to ±24 mA at 3.0 V. |
| VCC | Positive supply rail | Single supply connection supporting 1.65–5.5 V; powers all three gates simultaneously. |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all inputs, outputs, and internal circuitry; must be low-impedance for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide supply range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V operation allows drop-in replacement across legacy 3.3 V and modern low-power 1.8 V designs. |
| Overvoltage-tolerant inputs | Inputs withstand 5.5 V even when VCC = 1.65 V - eliminates need for external protection in mixed-voltage interfaces. |
| High noise immunity | Guaranteed VIH ≥ 0.8×VCC and VIL ≤ 0.2×VCC across full temperature range - ensures robust logic decision margins. |
| Low dynamic power | CPD = 7 pF at 3.3 V - limits switching power to <1 µW per MHz per input, critical for battery-powered sensor nodes. |
| Thermal reliability | Ptot derates linearly at 3.6 mW/K above +81 °C in SOT1203 - enables predictable thermal management in compact enclosures. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC3G04DCUR | Same logic function but in VSSOP8 (SOT765-1) package; 2.3 mm body width vs. 1.35 mm; slightly higher thermal resistance (4.9 mW/K derating above 99 °C). | Better suited for manual rework or prototyping due to larger pad spacing; less optimal for ultra-dense layouts. | Select when board assembly process favors wider-pitch packages or thermal margin above 99 °C is required. |
| 74AUP3G04GN,132 | Lower VCC range (0.8–3.6 V); max output drive ±4 mA at 3.0 V; CPD = 3.5 pF; optimized for ultra-low power, not mixed-voltage operation. | Targeted at battery-powered wearables where 5 V tolerance and high drive are unnecessary. | Choose only for sub-3.6 V systems prioritizing nanowatt standby current over interface flexibility. |
Compared with SN74LVC3G04DCUR, the 74LVC3GU04GS,115 offers superior board-area efficiency and higher thermal derating headroom below 81 °C, while 74AUP3G04GN,132 trades voltage flexibility and drive strength for significantly lower static current-making it unsuitable for 5 V-tolerant or high-speed applications.

FAQ
Can 74LVC3GU04GS,115 be used as a crystal oscillator?
Yes - its unbuffered architecture and guaranteed gain at low frequencies make it suitable for Pierce oscillator circuits. Application note Fig. 8 specifies R1 ≥ 3 kΩ, R2 ≤ 1 MΩ, and 1 µF bypass capacitor; typical unity-gain bandwidth is 5 MHz, enabling stable 32.768 kHz and fundamental-mode MHz crystal operation.
What is the maximum capacitive load this device can drive reliably?
At VCC = 3.0 V and Tamb = 25 °C, the device maintains <3.7 ns propagation delay with 50 pF load (per Table 10 test conditions). With ±24 mA drive, it can reliably switch up to ~100 pF total load (including trace and input capacitance) while staying within recommended timing margins for 25 MHz digital signals.
Does the 74LVC3GU04GS,115 support hot-swap or live-insertion?
No - it lacks powered-off protection or Ioff specification. Inputs may draw excessive current if driven while VCC = 0 V, risking latch-up or damage. Always ensure VCC is stable before applying input signals, especially in backplane or modular systems with staggered power sequencing.
How does the SOT1203 package affect thermal performance compared to TSSOP8?
SOT1203 (XSON8) has higher thermal resistance: Ptot derates at 3.6 mW/K above +81 °C, versus 4.6 mW/K above +96 °C for TSSOP8 (SOT505-2). This means the GS variant reaches thermal limit faster under sustained high-current operation, requiring careful layout with thermal vias and copper pour for >50 mW continuous dissipation.
