Product details
Overview
74LVT126DB,112 from Nexperia is a 3.3 V quad non-inverting buffer with 3-state outputs, designed for bus interface and level translation in mixed-voltage systems. It features bus-hold inputs (eliminating external pull-ups), IOFF partial power-down protection, ±32 mA/±64 mA output drive, and operates from -40 °C to +85 °C. Used in backplane data routing and FPGA I/O expansion where TTL-compatible 3.3 V logic buffering is required.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVT126DB,112 datasheet, 74LVT126DB,112 pinout, 74LVT126DB,112 application, or 74LVT126DB,112 equivalent, key selection criteria include 3-state timing (tPZH ≤ 5.4 ns at 3.3 V), overvoltage-tolerant 5.5 V inputs, bus-hold current specs (IBHL = 75–150 μA), and SO14 package compatibility with legacy PCB footprints.
Technical Context
The 74LVT126DB,112 implements four independent BiCMOS buffer channels, each with dedicated active-low output enable (nOE) control. Its IOFF circuit disables outputs during power-down, blocking backflow current when VCC = 0 V while inputs/outputs remain at up to 4.5 V.
Bus-hold circuitry maintains stable logic states on unused inputs without external resistors, with defined IBHL (75–150 μA LOW) and IBHH (-75 to -150 μA HIGH) currents. Input voltage tolerance extends to 5.5 V, enabling direct interfacing with 5 V systems while powered from 2.7–3.6 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - Ensures stable operation across industrial-grade 3.3 V rails with ±0.3 V margin. |
| Input Voltage Range | 0 V to 5.5 V - Allows direct connection to 5 V TTL buses without level shifters. |
| Output Drive | +64 mA / -32 mA - Supports driving heavy capacitive loads (e.g., >50 pF) and multiple CMOS/TTL inputs. |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 3.9 ns at 3.3 V - Enables reliable operation in high-speed digital interfaces up to ~100 MHz. |
| IOFF Leakage | ±100 μA at VCC = 0 V - Prevents damaging back-current during hot-swap or partial power-down sequences. |
| Bus-Hold Current | IBHL = 75–150 μA at VI = 0.8 V - Holds floating inputs at valid LOW without external components. |
| Operating Temperature | -40 °C to +85 °C - Qualified for industrial ambient environments without derating. |
Pinout & Package
74LVT126DB,112 is supplied in SO14 (SOT108-1) package: plastic small outline, 14-lead, 3.9 mm body width, 1.27 mm lead pitch. Pin 1 index located at top-left corner with beveled edge.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 4, 10, 13 | nOE (active-low output enable) | Independent per-channel control: LOW enables output; HIGH forces high-impedance state. |
| 2, 5, 9, 12 | nA (data input) | Non-inverting input for corresponding buffer channel; accepts 0–5.5 V logic levels. |
| 3, 6, 8, 11 | nY (data output) | Buffered non-inverting output; drives loads up to +64 mA (sink) or -32 mA (source). |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuitry and I/O; must be low-impedance connection. |
| 14 | VCC | Primary supply rail (2.7–3.6 V); powers all buffers and IOFF protection circuitry. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bus-hold inputs | Eliminates need for 10 kΩ external pull-up/pull-down resistors on unused inputs, reducing BOM count and board space. |
| IOFF partial power-down | Disables outputs and blocks back-current when VCC = 0 V, enabling safe live insertion/extraction in modular systems. |
| Overvoltage-tolerant inputs | Withstands 5.5 V input signals while powered from 3.3 V, enabling seamless 5 V ↔ 3.3 V domain bridging. |
| BiCMOS output stage | Delivers TTL-compatible drive strength (+64 mA sink, -32 mA source) with CMOS-level static power consumption. |
| Power-up 3-state | Outputs remain in high-impedance state until VCC stabilizes, preventing bus contention during power sequencing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad 3-state buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC126APWR | Lower drive (±24 mA), narrower VCC range (1.65–3.6 V), no bus-hold or IOFF. | Suitable only for low-capacitance, fully powered systems; not for hot-swap or 5 V-tolerant use. | Select if cost-sensitive and 5 V tolerance/IOFF are unnecessary. |
| 74ALVC126PW,118 | Same SO14 package; identical 5.5 V input tolerance but lacks bus-hold; IOFF present. | Requires external pull-ups on unused inputs; otherwise matches timing and drive specs closely. | Choose when bus-hold is not needed and legacy footprint reuse is critical. |
Compared with SN74LVC126APWR, 74LVT126DB,112 delivers higher drive strength and robust 5 V tolerance; versus 74ALVC126PW,118, it adds bus-hold functionality-reducing external components and improving noise immunity on unterminated lines.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the 74LVT126DB,112 can tolerate?
The 74LVT126DB,112 supports input voltages up to +5.5 V regardless of VCC level, verified per Table 4 limiting values. This allows direct interfacing with 5 V TTL systems while operating from a 3.3 V supply, without external clamping or level-shifting circuitry.
Does the 74LVT126DB,112 require external pull-up resistors on unused inputs?
No. The device integrates bus-hold circuitry on all data inputs (1A–4A), providing active LOW and HIGH hold currents (IBHL = 75–150 μA, IBHH = −75 to −150 μA). This maintains valid logic states on floating inputs without external components, reducing BOM and layout complexity.
Can the 74LVT126DB,112 be used during live insertion of a board?
Yes. Its IOFF circuitry actively disables outputs and limits power-off leakage to ±100 μA when VCC = 0 V, preventing damaging back-current flow from live backplane traces into the unpowered IC. This meets requirements for safe hot-swap in modular systems.
What is the typical propagation delay for the 74LVT126DB,112 at 3.3 V?
At VCC = 3.3 V and Tamb = 25 °C, typical propagation delays are tPLH = 2.3 ns and tPHL = 2.4 ns (input-to-output), and tPZH = 3.6 ns (enable-to-HIGH). These values are confirmed in Table 7 and support reliable operation in digital systems with clock periods ≥ 8 ns.
