Product details

Overview

MC74AC10NG from onsemi is a triple 3-input NAND gate in high-performance silicon-gate CMOS technology, operating from 2.0 V to 6.0 V supply, delivering ±24 mA output drive, with propagation delays as low as 4.0 ns (tPHL/tPLH at VCC = 5.0 V, CL = 50 pF), and used in digital logic control, address decoding, and bus interface circuits.

For engineers reviewing the MC74AC10NG datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include supply voltage range (2.0–6.0 V), output drive capability (±24 mA), propagation delay (≤7.0 ns max over temperature), input voltage thresholds (VIH = 2.1 V min at VCC = 3.0 V), and Pb-free SOIC-14 packaging compatibility with industrial temperature operation (−40°C to +85°C).

Technical Context

The MC74AC10NG implements three independent 3-input NAND gates in a single SOIC-14 package, each with CMOS-compatible inputs and rail-to-rail output swing. It features no internal pull-ups or Schmitt-trigger inputs, and its logic behavior conforms strictly to standard NAND truth tables under all valid supply and input conditions.

It operates across a wide VCC range (2.0–6.0 V) with guaranteed DC performance including VIH ≥ 2.1 V at 3.0 V supply, VOL ≤ 0.44 V at IOL = 24 mA, and VOH ≥ 4.4 V at IOH = −24 mA with 4.5 V supply - enabling interoperability with both 3.3 V and 5 V logic families without level shifting.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple 3-input NAND gate applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
SN74AC10N	Same logic function and SOIC-14 package; TI version specifies 6 V absolute max VCC but guarantees only 4.5–5.5 V operation	Optimized for 5 V systems; less margin for 3.3 V interfacing due to higher VIH (2.3 V min)	Select when sourcing exclusively from TI supply chain and system uses stable 5 V rails
74VHC10N	Higher speed (2.8 ns typ), lower ICC (<1 μA), but narrower VCC range (2.0–5.5 V); not rated for 6 V operation	Better for battery-powered 3.3 V designs needing ultra-low quiescent current and faster timing	Prefer where power budget <10 μA per gate is critical and 6 V tolerance is unnecessary

Compared with SN74AC10N and 74VHC10N, MC74AC10NG offers the widest usable supply range (2.0–6.0 V) and highest guaranteed output drive (±24 mA) across full temperature, making it optimal for industrial systems with variable or unregulated rails.

FAQ

What is the maximum supply voltage rating for MC74AC10NG?

The MC74AC10NG has an absolute maximum DC supply voltage (VCC) rating of +6.5 V, but its recommended operating range is 2.0 V to 6.0 V. Operation above 6.0 V is not guaranteed for parametric performance, and sustained use beyond 6.5 V may cause permanent damage. The device is characterized and specified for reliable logic operation across the full 2.0–6.0 V range, including at 3.3 V and 5 V nominal supplies.

Does MC74AC10NG support mixed-voltage interfacing between 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains?

Yes, MC74AC10NG supports mixed-voltage interfacing: its input thresholds (VIH = 2.1 V min at 3.0 V supply) allow clean recognition of 3.3 V logic highs, while its rail-to-rail outputs (VOH ≥ 4.4 V at 4.5 V supply) can directly drive 5 V TTL inputs. No level-shifting circuitry is needed when connecting to either domain, provided VCC is set to the target output voltage level (e.g., 5 V for driving 5 V loads).

What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of MC74AC10NG in its SOIC-14 package?

The MC74AC10NG in SOIC-14 (Case 751A) has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 116°C/W under standard JEDEC test conditions (still air, 2-layer board). This value assumes proper PCB copper pour and thermal vias near pins 7 (GND) and 14 (VCC). At maximum rated power dissipation (1077 mW), this yields a worst-case junction temperature rise of ~125°C above ambient - confirming suitability for industrial ambient temperatures up to +85°C with adequate layout.

Is MC74AC10NG pin-compatible with MC74ACT10NG?

No, MC74AC10NG is not pin-compatible with MC74ACT10NG in functional terms despite identical pinouts: the ACT variant has TTL-compatible inputs (VIH = 2.0 V min at 4.5 V), while the AC version has CMOS inputs (VIH = 2.1 V min at 3.0 V). Swapping them may cause marginal logic thresholds or increased input current in mixed-signal systems. They share the same SOIC-14 footprint and terminal mapping, but electrical behavior differs - substitution requires validation of input drive strength and noise margins.

What is the input capacitance of MC74AC10NG and how does it affect high-speed routing?

The MC74AC10NG has a typical input capacitance (CIN) of 4.5 pF per input pin at VCC = 5.0 V. This low value minimizes capacitive loading on upstream drivers, allowing reliable operation with fast edge rates (e.g., <10 ns rise times) without excessive signal degradation. For PCB layout, trace lengths up to 5 cm remain viable at 50 MHz toggle rates; longer runs require controlled impedance or series termination if driven by high-slew-rate sources.
