Nexperia USA Inc. 74LVC827APW,118

Overview

74LVC827APW,118 from Nexperia is a 10-bit non-inverting buffer/line driver with dual 3-state enable (OE1, OE2), 5 V tolerant inputs and outputs, 1.2 V to 3.6 V supply range, and operation up to +125 °C - used in voltage-level translation between 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains in industrial I/O expansion and FPGA interface circuits.

For engineers reviewing the 74LVC827APW,118 datasheet, 74LVC827APW,118 pinout, 74LVC827APW,118 application, or 74LVC827APW,118 equivalent, key selection criteria include 5 V tolerance on all I/O pins, guaranteed 3-state leakage < ±5 µA at 5.5 V, propagation delay ≤6.7 ns at 3.3 V, dual independent output enables, and TSSOP24 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.

Technical Context

This device implements ten parallel non-inverting buffers, each with output controlled by the logical AND of OE1 and OE2 - both active-low enables must be LOW for output drive; either HIGH forces all Y[0:9] into high-impedance state. Inputs accept voltages up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level (1.2 V–3.6 V), enabling direct interfacing with legacy 5 V TTL or CMOS without external level shifters.

It complies with JEDEC standards JESD8-7A (1.65–1.95 V), JESD8-5A (2.3–2.7 V), and JESD8-C/JESD36 (2.7–3.6 V), and supports full industrial temperature operation (−40 °C to +125 °C) with ESD protection exceeding 2000 V HBM, 200 V MM, and 1000 V CDM.

FAQ

Can 74LVC827APW,118 operate with VCC = 1.2 V while driving 5 V-tolerant loads?

Yes. The device is fully specified down to 1.2 V supply and maintains 5 V tolerance on all inputs and outputs across the entire operating range. At 1.2 V, VIH is 1.08 V and VOL remains ≤0.12 V at 100 µA load, ensuring noise margin preservation in ultra-low-power sensor nodes.

What is the maximum capacitive load this buffer can drive reliably at 100 MHz?

At VCC = 3.3 V and Tamb = 25 °C, the output can drive up to 50 pF with tpd ≤6.7 ns and VOL ≤0.3 V at 24 mA sink current. For 100 MHz toggling, total load (including trace + receiver input) must stay ≤45 pF to maintain <10 % duty-cycle distortion and avoid overshoot beyond 0.5 V.

How does dual OE control improve system-level bus management?

OE1 and OE2 act as independent enable gates: only when both are LOW do outputs drive; either HIGH places all Y[0:9] in high-impedance. This allows hierarchical bus arbitration - e.g., OE1 tied to system reset (global disable), OE2 controlled by FPGA (peripheral-specific enable) - reducing software overhead.

Is thermal derating required for continuous operation at +125 °C?

Yes. For the TSSOP24 package (SOT355-1), total power dissipation derates linearly at 5.5 mW/K above +60 °C. At +125 °C, maximum allowed Ptot is 500 mW − (65 K × 5.5 mW/K) = 142.5 mW. Designers must limit simultaneous switching outputs and use thermal vias under the exposed pad to sustain full 10-bit operation.
