Product details
Overview
HCF4025BEY from STMicroelectronics is a triple 3-input NOR gate CMOS logic IC in 14-pin DIP package, operating from 3V to 20V supply, with typical propagation delay of 50ns at 10V/50pF, buffered inputs/outputs, symmetrical output drive (±1.1mA @10V), and guaranteed quiescent current ≤0.5µA at 10V - used in industrial control sequencers and legacy TTL-to-CMOS interface logic.
For engineers reviewing the HCF4025BEY datasheet, HCF4025BEY pinout, HCF4025BEY application, or HCF4025BEY equivalent, key selection criteria include VDD range (3–20V), input leakage (≤100nA @18V), noise margin (2V min @10V), and DIP-14 mechanical compatibility with through-hole PCB assembly.
Technical Context
The HCF4025BEY implements three independent 3-input NOR gates using standard B-series CMOS process, with fully buffered I/O stages ensuring consistent rise/fall times and high noise immunity. Each gate exhibits symmetrical VOH/VOL (4.95V/0.05V @5V) and supports rail-to-rail input voltage range (0 to VDD).
It meets JEDEC JESD13B for B-series CMOS devices, specifying absolute max ratings up to 22V supply and operation across -55°C to +125°C. Input leakage is characterized at ±100nA max @18V, and quiescent current is 100% tested per unit.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDD Range | 3V to 20V - enables direct replacement of 5V/10V/15V legacy logic without level-shifting. |
| tPD (Typ.) | 50ns @10V/50pF - defines maximum clock rate for synchronous state machines using this gate. |
| IOH/IOL | -1.1mA / +0.9mA @10V - sufficient to drive multiple 4000-series inputs or small LED loads directly. |
| VIH/VIL | 7V / 3V @10V - provides 2V noise margin, critical for noisy industrial environments. |
| IQ (Max) | 0.5µA @10V - ensures ultra-low standby power in battery-backed control logic. |
| CI (Input) | 7.5pF - limits capacitive loading on preceding stage, preserving signal edge integrity. |
Pinout & Package
Package: Plastic Dual In-line Package (DIP-14), 0.3" wide, lead pitch 2.54mm, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1,2,3 | NOR1 Inputs A,B,C | Three independent logic inputs for first NOR gate; all buffered, rail-to-rail compatible. |
| 4,5,8 | NOR2 Inputs D,E,F | Inputs for second NOR gate; identical electrical behavior to pins 1–3. |
| 11,12,13 | NOR3 Inputs I,H,G | Inputs for third NOR gate; pin order matches truth table labeling in datasheet. |
| 6 | NOR1 Output K | Inverted OR of pins 1,2,3; drives load up to 0.9mA sink / 1.1mA source @10V. |
| 9 | NOR2 Output J | Inverted OR of pins 4,5,8; electrically isolated from other outputs. |
| 10 | NOR3 Output L | Inverted OR of pins 11,12,13; full symmetry with outputs 6 and 9. |
| 7 | VSS | Negative supply reference (GND); must be connected before VDD to prevent latch-up. |
| 14 | VDD | Positive supply input; accepts 3–20V DC; decoupling capacitor required at point-of-load. |
Key Features

Use Value: Symmetrical VOH/VOL (4.95V/0.05V @5V) ensures clean digital signaling to supervisor ICs with tight threshold windows. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple 3-input NOR gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CD4025BE | Same pinout and logic function; higher typical tPD (90ns @5V), lower IOH (-0.4mA @5V). | Less suitable for >1MHz clocked logic; acceptable for static control and slow monitoring. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs speed/power requirements and CD4025BE is already qualified. |
| MC14025BDR2G | SOIC-14 only; tighter VOL spec (0.03V @5V); same VDD range and IQ performance. | Requires surface-mount assembly; better for new designs targeting higher density and thermal performance. | Prefer for new SMT-based industrial controllers where board space and reflow compatibility are priorities. |
Compared with CD4025BE and MC14025BDR2G, the HCF4025BEY offers superior speed-power trade-off in through-hole form factor, making it optimal for field-replaceable legacy upgrades and ruggedized prototyping.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage for HCF4025BEY?
The absolute maximum supply voltage is +22V, but the recommended operating range is 3V to 20V per JEDEC JESD13B. Operation above 20V risks permanent damage and voids parametric guarantees; sustained use at 20V is validated for full temperature range (-55°C to +125°C) with derated power dissipation.
Does HCF4025BEY support mixed-voltage interfacing?
Yes - its inputs accept 0V to VDD, and outputs swing rail-to-rail, enabling direct interfacing between 5V, 10V, and 15V logic domains without external level shifters. However, all inputs referenced to the same VDD and VSS rails; multi-supply domain operation requires isolation or level-shifting circuitry.
Is HCF4025BEY pin-compatible with CD4025BE?
Yes - both use identical DIP-14 pinout and logic function. Key differences include propagation delay (HCF4025BEY: 50ns typ @10V vs CD4025BE: 90ns typ @5V) and output drive strength (HCF4025BEY delivers ±1.1mA @10V, CD4025BE only ±0.4mA @5V), affecting timing-critical and high-fanout applications.
What is the input capacitance and how does it affect layout?
Input capacitance is 7.5pF maximum per pin. This low value minimizes loading on driving stages and reduces sensitivity to PCB trace capacitance. For layouts operating near 1MHz, keep input traces short (<5cm) and avoid stubs to preserve edge integrity; no termination resistors are needed due to CMOS high-impedance inputs.
