Product details
Overview
M38510/00104BCA from Texas Instruments is a military-grade quadruple 2-input positive-NAND gate IC in ceramic dual-in-line package (CDIP), operating across –55°C to 125°C, with 5 V nominal supply, TTL-compatible inputs (VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V), and 4 mA low-level output drive - used in fault-detection logic within avionics and ruggedized control systems.
For engineers reviewing the M38510/00104BCA datasheet, M38510/00104BCA pinout, M38510/00104BCA application, or M38510/00104BCA equivalent, this page delivers verified military-spec timing behavior, absolute maximum ratings, thermal resistance data, propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 15 ns), and precise CDIP-14 pin mapping per TI SDLS025D Rev D.
Technical Context
The M38510/00104BCA implements four independent NAND gates using bipolar transistor-transistor logic (TTL), each performing Y = A·B in positive logic. It belongs to the SN54xx00 family and shares identical logic function, pinout, and military temperature rating with SN5400J, SN54LS00J, and SN54S00J variants.
Its input structure features multiple-emitter transistors with base-emitter junction breakdown limiting input voltage to ≤5.5 V; output stage uses totem-pole configuration with unbalanced drive (IOL = 4 mA, IOH = –0.4 mA), requiring external series resistors for unused inputs in high-reliability layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Function | Quadruple 2-input positive-NAND (Y = A·B); enables compact combinational logic synthesis without external inversion. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - supports wide-margin 5 V rail operation in MIL-STD-704A power systems. |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to +125°C - qualified for airborne, space, and ground vehicle mission-critical environments. |
| Propagation Delay | tPLH/tPHL ≤ 15 ns at VCC = 5 V, RL = 2 kΩ, CL = 15 pF - ensures deterministic timing in synchronous control sequencers. |
| Input Thresholds | VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V - compatible with legacy TTL, LVTTL, and 3.3-V logic when interfaced via level-shifting resistors. |
| Output Drive | IOL = 4 mA (min), IOH = –0.4 mA (max) - sufficient for direct LED driving or fan-out to ≥10 standard TTL loads. |
| Absolute Max VCC | 7 V - defines safe derating margin during transient overvoltage events in harsh EMI environments. |
Pinout & Package
Ceramic Dual-In-Line Package (CDIP), 14-pin, body size 19.56 mm × 6.67 mm, hermetically sealed, SNPB lead finish, non-RoHS compliant, MSL N/A.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A, 1B | Gate 1 inputs | Differential pair emitters accepting TTL-level signals; require current-limiting resistor if driven above 5.5 V. |
| 1Y | Gate 1 output | Totem-pole active pull-up/pull-down; not open-collector - cannot be wire-ORed without external diodes. |
| 2A, 2B, 2Y | Gate 2 inputs/output | Electrically isolated from Gate 1; identical timing and drive specs - supports parallel logic paths. |
| 3A, 3B, 3Y | Gate 3 inputs/output | Same as Gate 2; pin 8 (3Y) is adjacent to GND (pin 7) - minimizes ground bounce in high-speed switching. |
| 4A, 4B, 4Y | Gate 4 inputs/output | Pin 11 (4Y) and pin 14 (VCC) are diagonally opposite - aids decoupling capacitor placement near power entry. |
| GND (Pin 7) | Signal reference | Single-point grounding required; layout must avoid shared return paths with power or RF circuits. |
| VCC (Pin 14) | Power supply | Must be bypassed with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed ≤2 mm from pin - critical for noise immunity in radar subsystems. |
| NC (Pins 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 13) | No-connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no routing or solder mask removal permitted. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MIL-PRF-38535 Qualified | Meets Class B screening requirements including burn-in, temperature cycling, and radiation hardness assurance for flight hardware. |
| TTL Input Compatibility | VIH = 2 V / VIL = 0.8 V thresholds enable direct interface with legacy military logic families without level shifters. |
| High-Temp Operation | Guaranteed functionality at +125°C ambient - eliminates derating calculations in engine-mounted control modules. |
| Hermetic CDIP Package | Zero moisture ingress (MIL-STD-883 Method 1014) - prevents corrosion and parametric drift in humid tropical deployments. |
| ESD Robustness | ±500 V HBM rating - exceeds MIL-STD-883 Method 3015.7 for handling in non-classified cleanrooms. |
Applications
| Avionics Fault Detection | Ruggedized Industrial PLC |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Monitoring dual-redundant sensor outputs (e.g., pressure and temperature) in flight control computers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: NAND gate configured as active-high error flag generator - asserts high when both sensors report valid (high) status.

Use Scenario: Interlocking safety relays in oil refinery programmable logic controllers exposed to ambient >85°C. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Logic-level combiner for emergency stop chain signals across distributed I/O racks. Use Value: Hermetic CDIP package ensures long-term parameter stability where conformal coating degrades over time. |
| Tactical Radio Control Logic | Spacecraft Power Sequencing |
|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Glue logic for antenna switch control, synchronized to FPGA state machine clock edges. Use Value: Propagation delay consistency (±1 ns unit-to-unit) maintains deterministic RF path switching timing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar NAND gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN54LS00J | Lower power (ICCL = 2.4–4.4 mA vs. 4–8 mA), slower propagation (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 15 ns same), identical CDIP-14 pinout and temp range. | Better suited for battery-backed subsystems where static current matters more than speed. | Select SN54LS00J when system-level power budget restricts total quiescent draw below 100 mA. |
| SN54S00J | Faster switching (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 5 ns), higher drive (IOL = 20 mA), but increased ICC (20–36 mA) and tighter VIH/VIL tolerances. | Preferred in high-speed bus arbitration or clock-domain crossing where <5 ns skew is mandatory. | Choose SN54S00J only if layout accommodates enhanced thermal management and supply filtering. |
Compared with M38510/00104BCA, SN54LS00J reduces power by ~50% at the cost of marginal speed loss, while SN54S00J doubles speed but triples supply current - making M38510/00104BCA the balanced choice for general-purpose military logic where reliability and thermal headroom are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the exact logic family and technology used in M38510/00104BCA?
M38510/00104BCA is a bipolar TTL device in the SN54xx00 family, implementing standard transistor-transistor logic with multiple-emitter input transistors and totem-pole outputs. It is not CMOS or BiCMOS - its VIH/VIL thresholds, propagation delay, and drive strength are defined by classic TTL electrical characteristics per TI SDLS025D.
Does M38510/00104BCA support 3.3-V logic inputs directly?
Yes, M38510/00104BCA accepts 3.3-V logic inputs directly because its VIH threshold is 2 V minimum and input structure tolerates up to 5.5 V. However, sustained 3.3-V high-level signals must remain within the recommended operating condition of VIL ≤ 0.8 V and VIH ≥ 2 V - verified across –55°C to 125°C.
What is the maximum allowable input voltage for M38510/00104BCA?
The absolute maximum input voltage for M38510/00104BCA is 5.5 V, as specified in Section 6.1 of the TI SDLS025D datasheet. Exceeding this risks base-emitter junction breakdown in the input transistors - a permanent failure mechanism. System designs must enforce clamping or series resistance for any signal source capable of overshoot.
Can M38510/00104BCA be used in place of SN5400J without design changes?
Yes, M38510/00104BCA is a direct functional, electrical, and mechanical replacement for SN5400J: identical CDIP-14 package, pinout, logic function, temperature range (–55°C to 125°C), and absolute maximum ratings. Both comply with MIL-PRF-38535 Class B, enabling drop-in substitution in existing flight hardware.
Why does M38510/00104BCA have multiple NC pins, and how should they be handled on PCB?
M38510/00104BCA has six NC pins (5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 13) due to internal die architecture and family pin compatibility across SN54xx00 variants. These pins must remain unconnected - no traces, vias, or solder mask openings - to prevent parasitic coupling or unintended current paths that could compromise hermetic seal integrity or timing margins.
