Product details
Overview
74VHC132N from ON Semiconductor is a quad 2-input NAND Schmitt trigger gate in a 14-lead PDIP package, delivering 3.9ns typical propagation delay at 5V, ±25mA output drive, and input hysteresis (VP = 3.15V / VN = 1.35V at VCC = 4.5V) for noise-immune signal conditioning in digital interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 74VHC132N datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified functional identity, validated Schmitt-trigger thresholds, confirmed DC/AC electrical specs, package-mapped pin roles, and two field-validated alternative parts for noise-tolerant NAND logic replacement.
Technical Context
The 74VHC132N implements four independent 2-input NAND gates with built-in Schmitt-trigger inputs-each featuring asymmetric positive-going (VP) and negative-going (VN) thresholds to convert slow-rising/falling signals into clean, jitter-free TTL/CMOS-compatible outputs. It operates across 2.0V–5.5V supply range with full 0V–7V input tolerance independent of VCC.
Its silicon-gate CMOS process enables bipolar-level speed (tPD = 3.9ns typ. @ 5V, CL = 15pF) while maintaining ultra-low quiescent current (ICC ≤ 2µA max @ 25°C) and low dynamic noise (VOLP ≤ 0.8V). Input protection circuitry allows safe interfacing between 5V and 3V systems or battery-backed dual-supply environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.0V to 5.5V - supports mixed-voltage system interfacing and brown-out tolerant operation |
| tPD (Typ.) | 3.9ns @ VCC = 5V, CL = 15pF - enables high-speed edge detection in clock/data recovery paths |
| Input Hysteresis | VH = 1.4V @ VCC = 4.5V - provides 1.4V noise margin to reject EMI on slow analog-like control lines |
| IOUT (Max) | ±25mA - drives standard TTL loads or multiple CMOS inputs without buffering |
| ICC (Max) | 2µA @ TA = 25°C - enables always-on monitoring circuits with negligible standby power impact |
| VIN Range | –0.5V to +7.0V - permits direct connection to overvoltage-safe sensors or legacy 5V buses without level shifters |
Pinout & Package
74VHC132N uses a 14-lead plastic dual in-line package (PDIP), 0.300" wide, with standard through-hole mounting and JEDEC MS-001 compliance. Pin numbering follows standard DIP convention with Pin 1 marked by notch or dot.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 12, 13 | Input (A1/B1, A2/B2, A3/B3, A4/B4) | Four independent Schmitt-trigger NAND inputs - each pair accepts slow analog waveforms and outputs clean digital edges |
| 3, 6, 10, 11 | Output (Y1–Y4) | Active-low NAND outputs with rail-to-rail swing and ±25mA drive capability |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference for all logic and I/O - must be low-impedance for stable hysteresis performance |
| 14 | VCC | Positive supply - powers internal logic and defines output voltage levels; supports 2.0–5.5V operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Schmitt-trigger input hysteresis | Ensures reliable switching on noisy or slowly varying signals (e.g., mechanical switch bounce, RC oscillator outputs) |
| Pin- and function-compatible with 74HC132 | Enables drop-in replacement in existing HC-based designs without layout or firmware changes |
| Input protection to 7V regardless of VCC | Allows direct connection to 5V buses while powered from 3.3V, eliminating external clamping diodes |
| Low dynamic output noise (VOLP ≤ 0.8V) | Reduces crosstalk in dense PCB layouts where multiple 74VHC132N gates share supply/ground planes |
Applications
| Switch Debounce Circuit | RC Oscillator Interface |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Mechanical pushbutton connected to microcontroller GPIO with no external hardware filtering. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Signal conditioner converting noisy, bouncing switch transitions into single clean logic edges. Use Value: Eliminates need for software debouncing delays or external RC networks-reduces firmware complexity and improves real-time response. | Use Scenario: Low-cost relaxation oscillator using resistor and capacitor feeding into a timing-critical reset or clock enable path. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Waveform shaper transforming exponential RC ramp into precise square wave for synchronous logic.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Threshold comparator with hysteresis rejecting EMI-induced glitches on long sensor cables. Use Value: Guarantees deterministic state transitions even under 100mV peak-to-peak conducted noise-critical for safety-critical motion detection. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar NAND Schmitt trigger applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HC132D | Same logic function and pinout; slightly higher ICC (max 4µA vs. 2µA) and slower tPD (typ. 7ns vs. 3.9ns @ 5V) | Acceptable where lower speed and higher static current are tolerable; not suitable for <10MHz edge-sensitive paths | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs speed/power requirements and SOIC packaging is preferred |
| SN74LV132APWR | Lower VCC range (2.0–5.5V same), but tighter VOL/VOLP specs (VOLP ≤ 0.4V); identical hysteresis values | Better noise immunity in high-speed mixed-signal PCBs; requires TSSOP rework if replacing PDIP | Select for new designs prioritizing ultra-low dynamic noise and surface-mount assembly |
Compared with 74VHC132N, 74HC132D trades speed and quiescent power for broader distributor availability, while SN74LV132APWR delivers superior noise suppression in compact layouts but mandates PCB redesign for TSSOP placement.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the 74VHC132N?
The 74VHC132N supports DC input voltages from –0.5V to +7.0V, independent of VCC level. This allows safe interfacing with 5V signals even when powered from 3.3V or 2.5V supplies-eliminating external clamping diodes in level-shifting applications. The specification is guaranteed per Absolute Maximum Ratings in the official datasheet Rev. 1.5.0.
Does the 74VHC132N have the same pinout as the 74HC132?
Yes, the 74VHC132N is pin- and function-compatible with the 74HC132. Both devices use identical 14-pin DIP, SOIC, and TSSOP footprints and share identical truth tables, input/output assignments, and power/ground pin locations. This compatibility enables direct substitution in legacy HC-based designs without PCB modification.
What is the hysteresis voltage of the 74VHC132N at 5V supply?
At VCC = 5.5V, the 74VHC132N exhibits VP = 3.85V (positive threshold) and VN = 1.65V (negative threshold), yielding VH = 2.20V hysteresis. At nominal 5.0V operation, VH is approximately 1.60V-providing robust noise rejection for signals with up to ±800mV of superimposed interference without false triggering.
Can the 74VHC132N operate reliably at 2.0V supply?
Yes, the 74VHC132N is fully specified down to VCC = 2.0V, with guaranteed VOH ≥ 1.9V and VOL ≤ 0.1V at IOL = 50µA. Propagation delay increases to 14.0ns max (CL = 50pF), but logic functionality and Schmitt-trigger behavior remain intact-making it suitable for ultra-low-power battery-operated systems.
Is the 74VHC132N RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the 74VHC132N is lead-free and complies with JEDEC J-STD-020B for moisture sensitivity and RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. All packages-including the PDIP variant-use matte tin lead finishes and meet IPC/JEDEC standard reflow profiles without requiring special handling or exemptions.
