Product details
Overview
MC74LCX08DT from onsemi is a low-voltage CMOS quad 2-input AND gate operating from 1.65 V to 5.5 V, featuring 5 V-tolerant inputs, 24 mA balanced output drive at 3.0 V, near-zero static supply current (10 µA), and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive use. It performs logic-level translation in mixed-voltage systems such as automotive body control modules.
For engineers reviewing the MC74LCX08DT datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified functional identity, TSSOP-14 package mapping, truth-table–confirmed logic behavior, propagation delay (4.0 ns max at 5 V), and automotive-grade reliability data - all specific to the MC74LCX08DT variant.
Technical Context
The MC74LCX08DT implements four independent 2-input AND gates with TTL-compatible input thresholds and LVCMOS/LVTTL interoperability. Its 5.5 V input tolerance enables direct interfacing with legacy 5 V logic while powered from 1.65–3.6 V supplies.
Each gate exhibits matched high/low output drive (±24 mA @ 3.0 V), sub-10 µA quiescent ICC, and latchup immunity exceeding 100 mA. Propagation delay is specified down to 4.0 ns at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V, with output-to-output skew ≤1.0 ns across temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - supports single-supply operation across 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic domains |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | −0.5 V to +6.5 V - enables safe connection to 5 V drivers without level shifters |
| Output Drive Strength | ±24 mA @ 3.0 V - sufficient to drive multiple LVTTL loads or moderate PCB trace capacitance |
| Propagation Delay | 4.0 ns max @ VCC = 4.5–5.5 V - ensures timing compliance in 100+ MHz clocked control paths |
| Quiescent Supply Current | 10 µA max - minimizes standby power in battery-backed automotive modules |
| Operating Temperature | −40 °C to +125 °C - meets extended automotive ambient requirements |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | >2000 V - exceeds standard IEC 61000-4-2 system-level ESD robustness needs |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-14 (Case 948G) package: 4.9 mm × 4.4 mm × 1.2 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, lead-free, RoHS compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 4, 5, 12, 13 | Data Inputs (A0/B0, A1/B1, A2/B2, A3/B3) | Four independent AND gate input pairs; each pair must be terminated to avoid floating-induced leakage or oscillation |
| 3, 6, 11, 8 | Outputs (O0, O1, O2, O3) | Active-push-pull outputs; no internal pull-ups/pull-downs - external termination required for open-drain emulation |
| 7 | GND | Primary ground reference; decoupling capacitor must be placed within 3 mm of this pin |
| 14 | VCC | Single power supply input; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling adjacent to pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5 V–tolerant inputs | Enables direct interface with 5 V microcontrollers or sensors without external level translators |
| 24 mA balanced output drive | Supports fan-out of ≥10 LVTTL loads or driving 50 pF capacitive loads at ≤5 ns rise/fall times |
| AEC-Q100 qualified (−Q suffix) | Validated for automotive applications including engine control, lighting, and ADAS sensor interfaces |
| Near-zero static ICC (10 µA) | Reduces system-level quiescent power by >95% vs. standard 74HC logic in always-on modules |
| Latchup immunity >100 mA | Ensures robustness against transient overvoltage events in noisy vehicle electrical environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad 2-input AND gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC08APWR | Wider VCC range (1.65–5.5 V), identical 5 V input tolerance, but lower output drive (24 mA @ 3.3 V only; degrades below 3 V) | Not AEC-Q100 qualified; rated for −40 °C to +125 °C but lacks PPAP documentation | Preferred for cost-sensitive industrial designs where automotive qualification is unnecessary |
| 74AUP1G08GW,125 | Ultra-low power (0.9 µA ICC), smaller XSON-6 package, but single-gate only and 3.6 V max VCC | Requires four separate devices to match MC74LCX08DT's quad functionality; unsuitable for space-constrained multi-gate layouts | Best for ultra-low-power wearable applications where gate count is distributed across multiple ICs |
Compared with SN74LVC08APWR and 74AUP1G08GW,125, the MC74LCX08DT uniquely combines AEC-Q100 qualification, full 1.65–5.5 V operation, quad integration in TSSOP-14, and guaranteed 24 mA drive across its entire voltage range - making it the only drop-in solution for automotive body electronics requiring validated reliability and mixed-voltage compatibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum propagation delay of the MC74LCX08DT at 3.3 V supply?
The MC74LCX08DT has a maximum propagation delay of 5.5 ns at VCC = 3.0–3.6 V, as specified in the AC Electrical Characteristics table under tPLH/tPHL. This value is measured with CL = 50 pF and applies across the full operating temperature range of −40 °C to +125 °C. The MC74LCX08DT maintains consistent timing performance regardless of input transition rate within recommended conditions.
Does the MC74LCX08DT require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on unused inputs?
Yes - the MC74LCX08DT requires all unused inputs to be tied to either VCC or GND to prevent floating states that increase ICC and risk unintended switching. The datasheet explicitly states "For ICC reasons, DO NOT FLOAT Inputs" and recommends hard-wiring unused pins to valid logic levels. Leaving inputs unconnected may cause excessive current draw or metastability in downstream circuits using the MC74LCX08DT.
Is the MC74LCX08DT pin-compatible with standard 74HC08 or 74LS08 packages?
No - the MC74LCX08DT uses a TSSOP-14 package (Case 948G) with 0.65 mm pitch, whereas standard 74HC08 and 74LS08 typically use SOIC-14 (1.27 mm pitch) or PDIP-14. While the logic function and pin numbering (14-pin dual-in-line compatible order) match, the physical footprint and soldering requirements differ. Migration from SOIC to TSSOP requires PCB layout revision; the MC74LCX08DT is not a drop-in replacement for through-hole or wide-pitch surface-mount variants.
What does the "−Q" suffix in MC74LCX08DTR2G−Q* indicate for the MC74LCX08DT?
The "−Q" suffix in MC74LCX08DTR2G−Q* denotes an automotive-grade version of the MC74LCX08DT, certified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (−40 °C to +125 °C) and PPAP-capable. It reflects unique site and process control requirements, including enhanced traceability, lot-specific qualification testing, and extended reliability monitoring - all documented in the official onsemi datasheet revision history and ordering information section for the MC74LCX08DT.
Can the MC74LCX08DT operate reliably at 1.65 V while driving a 50 pF load?
Yes - the MC74LCX08DT is fully characterized down to 1.65 V, with propagation delay specified at 9.8 ns max (VCC = 1.65–1.95 V, CL = 30 pF) and output drive capability confirmed across the full voltage range. At 1.65 V, it sustains functional operation with 50 pF loads, though rise/fall times increase slightly versus higher VCC. The MC74LCX08DT's design ensures correct logic evaluation and noise margin compliance even at minimum supply voltage.
