Product details
Overview
MC74HCT00ADT from NXP Semiconductors is a quad 2-input NAND gate logic IC with TTL-compatible input thresholds, 14-pin SOIC (SO14) package, −40 °C to +125 °C operating range, and propagation delay of 12 ns (typ) at VCC = 4.5 V. It serves as a fundamental combinational logic building block in digital control, interface translation, and signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MC74HCT00ADT datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include TTL-level input compatibility, guaranteed operation across industrial and extended temperature ranges, low dynamic power dissipation (CPD = 22 pF), and SO14 package compatibility with legacy PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The MC74HCT00ADT implements four independent NAND gates using silicon-gate CMOS technology with buffered TTL-compatible inputs. Its input stage includes clamp diodes enabling safe interfacing to voltages exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors.
It operates under JEDEC standard no. 7A, supports rail-to-rail output swing, and delivers symmetrical HIGH/LOW output drive capability (±4.0 mA at VCC = 4.5 V). The device is specified for stable performance across −40 °C to +125 °C with no derating required up to +125 °C in SO14 packaging.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Function | Quad 2-input NAND gate - provides four independent Boolean AND-NOT operations per package |
| Input Compatibility | TTL-level - VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V, enabling direct connection to legacy LSTTL outputs |
| Propagation Delay | 12 ns (typ) at VCC = 4.5 V, CL = 50 pF - ensures timing predictability in synchronous digital systems up to ~30 MHz |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - matches standard 5 V logic rails while rejecting noise outside this window |
| Output Drive | ±4.0 mA at VCC = 4.5 V - sufficient to drive 10 LSTTL loads or moderate capacitive loads without external buffering |
| ESD Protection | HBM > 2000 V, MM > 200 V - meets industrial handling requirements without additional protection circuitry |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive control modules and industrial motor drives |
Pinout & Package
MC74HCT00ADT uses the SO14 (SOT108-1) plastic small outline package: 14-lead, 3.9 mm body width, 1.27 mm lead pitch, surface-mount compatible.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 4, 9, 12 | Input A (nA) | First input of each NAND gate - accepts TTL-level signals; clamped to prevent overvoltage damage |
| 2, 5, 10, 13 | Input B (nB) | Second input of each NAND gate - electrically identical to nA pins; enables dual-input logic evaluation |
| 3, 6, 8, 11 | Output Y (nY) | Active-low NAND output - sinks or sources up to 4 mA; VOH ≥ 3.84 V, VOL ≤ 0.33 V at rated load |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference - must be connected to system 0 V plane; serves as return path for all internal currents |
| 14 | VCC | Positive supply - powers all four gates; decoupling capacitor (100 nF) recommended within 10 mm |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad NAND gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HCT00DR | TI-manufactured SO14 variant; identical VCC range (4.5–5.5 V), same 12 ns tpd, but HBM ESD rating = 2000 V (same), MM = 200 V (same) | Pinout and DC/AC specs match exactly; validated for use in TI-reference designs targeting industrial automation | Select when sourcing from TI-authorized channels or when aligning with TI-based reference designs |
| 74HCT00D,118 | NXP-marketed variant in same SO14 package; identical electrical specs and temperature range; differs only in reel packaging and traceability marking | No functional or layout impact; fully interchangeable in production for long-term supply continuity | Choose for consolidated NXP procurement or when matching existing NXP BOMs with identical part numbering conventions |
Compared with SN74HCT00DR and 74HCT00D,118, the MC74HCT00ADT offers identical logic behavior and timing but is distinguished by NXP's specific qualification testing for extended-temperature reliability and its documented use in automotive-adjacent industrial control applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for MC74HCT00ADT?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for MC74HCT00ADT is +7.0 V, but the recommended operating range is strictly 4.5 V to 5.5 V per JEDEC 7A compliance. Operating above 5.5 V risks violating static characteristics and may cause accelerated parametric drift or latch-up. Always maintain VCC within the recommended window to ensure guaranteed VOH/VOL performance and long-term reliability of the MC74HCT00ADT.
Does MC74HCT00ADT support 3.3 V logic interfaces?
No, MC74HCT00ADT does not support 3.3 V logic interfaces. Its TTL-compatible inputs require VIH ≥ 2.0 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V, and it lacks guaranteed operation below 4.5 V. Applying 3.3 V signals may result in undefined logic states or excessive input current. For 3.3 V systems, use MC74HC00ADT (CMOS-input version) or dedicated level translators instead of MC74HCT00ADT.
What is the purpose of the input clamp diodes in MC74HCT00ADT?
The input clamp diodes in MC74HCT00ADT protect against input voltages exceeding VCC or falling below GND by shunting excess current through external series resistors. When a voltage > VCC + 0.5 V is applied, the diode conducts into VCC; when < −0.5 V, it conducts into GND. This allows safe interfacing to higher-voltage buses (e.g., 12 V sensor outputs) provided current is limited to ±20 mA - a key design feature of the MC74HCT00ADT.
Can MC74HCT00ADT drive an LED directly?
MC74HCT00ADT can sink up to 4.0 mA at VOL ≤ 0.33 V (VCC = 4.5 V), which is sufficient for low-current indicator LEDs (e.g., 2 mA @ 1.8 V forward voltage with 1.2 kΩ series resistor). However, it cannot source significant current - outputs are actively pulled low but weakly pulled high. For driving LEDs in common-anode configurations or higher-brightness applications, external transistor buffering is required. Direct drive remains viable only for low-duty-cycle status indicators using the MC74HCT00ADT's sink capability.
Is MC74HCT00ADT qualified for automotive applications?
MC74HCT00ADT is not AEC-Q100 qualified and is explicitly designated as non-automotive by NXP. While it operates from −40 °C to +125 °C - a range overlapping automotive under-hood requirements - it lacks automotive-specific stress testing, failure mode analysis, and traceability documentation. For automotive use, select NXP's automotive-qualified equivalents such as 74HCT00DP,118 (AEC-Q100 Grade 2) instead of MC74HCT00ADT.
