Product details
Overview
74LVX08MTR from STMicroelectronics is a low-voltage CMOS quad 2-input AND gate with 5V-tolerant inputs, operating from 2V to 3.6V supply, delivering 4.8ns typical propagation delay at 3.3V, ±4mA symmetrical output drive, and 2µA max quiescent current - used in 3.3V logic interfacing between 5V and 3V systems.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVX08MTR datasheet, 74LVX08MTR pinout, 74LVX08MTR application, or 74LVX08MTR equivalent, key selection criteria include 5V input tolerance, sub-5ns propagation delay at 3.3V, symmetrical IOH/IOL, low-noise VOLP (0.3V typ), and SO-14 package compatibility with legacy 74-series footprints.
Technical Context
The 74LVX08MTR implements four independent AND gates using sub-micron C2MOS technology with buffered outputs, enabling high noise immunity and stable switching across its 2V–3.6V operating range. Its input protection accepts 0–7V regardless of VCC, supporting robust 5V-to-3.3V level translation without external components.
All inputs feature power-down protection and 2kV ESD immunity; output stages deliver matched tPLH ≅ tPHL and |IOH| = IOL ≥ 4mA, ensuring balanced rise/fall times and predictable timing in synchronous logic interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2V to 3.6V - supports battery-powered 3.3V systems with 1.2V data retention |
| tPD (typ) | 4.8ns at VCC = 3.3V, CL = 15pF - enables high-speed glue logic in compact timing-critical paths |
| IOH/IOL | ±4mA min - provides sufficient drive for fan-out of 10 LVTTL loads or direct connection to microcontroller GPIO |
| VIL/VIH | 0.8V / 2.0V at VCC = 3.0V - ensures reliable recognition of 5V TTL logic levels with margin |
| ICC (max) | 2µA at TA = 25°C - enables ultra-low static power in always-on sensor interface circuits |
| VOLP (typ) | 0.3V at VCC = 3.3V - reduces ground bounce and crosstalk in dense PCB layouts |
| Input Tolerance | 0–7V independent of VCC - eliminates need for external level-shifters when interfacing 5V peripherals |
Pinout & Package
74LVX08MTR is housed in a 14-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package per JEDEC MS-012, with 1.27mm pitch, 8.55–8.75mm body width, and 5.8–6.2mm body length. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or notch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 4, 9, 12 | 1A–4A Inputs | First input of each AND gate; 5V-tolerant, ESD-protected, power-down safe |
| 2, 5, 10, 13 | 1B–4B Inputs | Second input of each AND gate; identical electrical behavior to A inputs |
| 3, 6, 8, 11 | 1Y–4Y Outputs | AND result outputs; symmetrical sourcing/sinking, low-noise, rail-to-rail swing |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference for all internal logic and I/O; decoupling capacitor required adjacent to pin |
| 14 | VCC | Positive supply (2–3.6V); must be filtered with 100nF ceramic capacitor near pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5V-tolerant inputs | Accepts 0–7V input signals regardless of VCC level - enables direct 5V peripheral interfacing without external resistors or translators |
| Symmetrical output drive | |IOH| = IOL ≥ 4mA - ensures matched rise/fall times and consistent timing margins in clocked logic paths |
| Low dynamic noise | VOLP = 0.3V (typ) at VCC = 3.3V - minimizes simultaneous switching noise affecting adjacent analog or RF sections |
| Power-down input protection | Inputs remain high-impedance and non-latching when VCC = 0V - prevents back-powering or latch-up during hot-swap or partial power-down |
| ESD immunity | 2kV HBM on all pins - meets industrial IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 requirements without added protection circuitry |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Expansion | USB Host Controller Glue Logic |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad 2-input AND gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC08APWR | Lower VCC min (1.65V), higher IOL (24mA), no 5V tolerance above VCC + 0.5V | Requires external clamping for 5V inputs; better suited for pure 1.8V/3.3V systems | Select when operating below 2V or driving heavier capacitive loads |
| 74AHC08PW,118 | Wider VCC range (2–5.5V), faster tPD (3.5ns typ), but only 5.5V absolute max input | Lacks true 5V-tolerance - risks damage if 5V applied while VCC < 4.5V | Select when full 5V operation is required and input voltage never exceeds VCC + 0.5V |
Compared with SN74LVC08APWR and 74AHC08PW,118, the 74LVX08MTR uniquely guarantees safe 5V input operation at any VCC from 2V–3.6V, making it the only choice for mixed-voltage systems where 5V signals must coexist with sub-3.3V supplies without external protection.

FAQ
Can 74LVX08MTR operate with a 1.8V supply?
No. The recommended operating VCC range is strictly 2.0V to 3.6V. At 1.8V, the device does not meet guaranteed VIH/VIL thresholds or output drive specifications. Data retention is supported down to 1.2V, but functional operation requires minimum 2.0V.
Is 74LVX08MTR pin-compatible with standard 74LS08?
Yes - it is pin- and function-compatible with the 74-series 08 AND gate in SO-14 packaging, including identical pin numbering and truth table behavior. However, input voltage thresholds and output drive strength differ, so verify timing and loading in existing LS designs.
What is the maximum capacitive load this device can drive reliably?
Per AC specifications, 74LVX08MTR is characterized up to 50pF load capacitance with guaranteed tPD and skew. Driving >50pF may increase propagation delay and degrade VOLP/VOLV; for >100pF loads, consider buffering or selecting a higher-drive logic family.
Does 74LVX08MTR require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on unused inputs?
No. Unused inputs may be tied directly to VCC or GND. The device features internal power-down protection and high-impedance inputs when un-driven, eliminating risk of floating nodes or unintended switching without external biasing.
