STMicroelectronics HCF4001M013TR

Overview

HCF4001M013TR from STMicroelectronics is a quad 2-input NOR gate IC in SO-14 package, implementing standard CMOS logic with buffered inputs/outputs, 50 ns typical propagation delay at VDD = 10 V and CL = 50 pF, ±100 nA max input leakage at 18 V, and operation across 3–20 V supply range - used in industrial control logic sequencing and power-up reset coordination.

For engineers reviewing the HCF4001M013TR datasheet, HCF4001M013TR pinout, HCF4001M013TR application, or HCF4001M013TR equivalent, key selection criteria include supply voltage flexibility (3–20 V), symmetrical output drive (±1.1 mA min at VDD = 10 V), noise margin (2 V min at 10 V), temperature range (−55 to +125 °C), and JEDEC JESD13B compliance for B-series CMOS devices.

Technical Context

The HCF4001M013TR implements four independent 2-input NOR gates using silicon-gate CMOS technology, with fully buffered inputs and outputs ensuring consistent signal integrity and fan-out capability. Each gate exhibits symmetrical VOH/VOL characteristics and supports rail-to-rail logic swing across its full 3–20 V operating range.

It meets JEDEC JESD13B specifications for B-series CMOS devices, including guaranteed quiescent current testing up to 20 V and absolute maximum ratings of −0.5 to +22 V on VDD. Input leakage is specified at ±100 nA max at VDD = 18 V and TA = 25 °C.

FAQ

Is HCF4001M013TR pin-compatible with CD4001BE?

Yes, HCF4001M013TR and CD4001BE share identical pin assignments and logic functionality. However, they differ in package type (SO-14 vs. DIP-14) and AC characteristics: HCF4001M013TR offers 50 ns typical propagation delay at 10 V, while CD4001BE specifies 100 ns at 5 V. Board-level substitution requires footprint adaptation but no logic redesign.

What is the maximum recommended VDD for continuous operation?

The maximum recommended VDD for continuous operation is 20 V, per JEDEC JESD13B and ST's Recommended Operating Conditions. Absolute maximum rating is +22 V, but sustained operation above 20 V risks accelerated parametric drift and reduced lifetime. All DC and dynamic specifications are guaranteed only within the 3–20 V range.

Does HCF4001M013TR require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on inputs?

No. The HCF4001M013TR features CMOS inputs with ≤100 nA leakage at 18 V, allowing direct connection to clean logic sources without external biasing. Pull-up/pull-down resistors are unnecessary unless interfacing with open-collector or high-impedance analog sources where defined default states are required.

Can HCF4001M013TR drive LED indicators directly?

Yes, but with current-limiting resistors. Each output can sink up to 6.8 mA (min) at VDD = 15 V, sufficient for low-current indicator LEDs. For a typical 2 mA red LED at 10 V supply, a 4.5 kΩ series resistor ensures safe operation within IOL limits while maintaining VOL ≤ 0.05 V.
