Product details
Overview
MC74VHC1GU04DF2G from onsemi is a single unbuffered CMOS inverter in SC-88A (SOT-353) package, operating from 2.0 V to 5.5 V supply, delivering 2.5 ns typical propagation delay at 5 V and supporting 3 V/5 V mixed-voltage interfacing. It serves as a level-shifting signal inverter in low-power digital logic circuits such as clock conditioning, pulse shaping, and reset signal inversion.
For engineers reviewing the MC74VHC1GU04DF2G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include input overvoltage tolerance up to 7 V, ±1 µA max input leakage, 8 mA output drive capability, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive use cases requiring robustness across −55 °C to +125 °C.
Technical Context
The MC74VHC1GU04DF2G implements a three-stage unbuffered inverter topology with silicon-gate CMOS process, enabling high noise immunity and stable rail-to-rail switching. Its input structure tolerates 7 V regardless of VCC, allowing safe interfacing between 3 V and 5 V domains without external clamping.
Propagation delays are balanced (tPLH ≈ tPHL), and internal design ensures power-down protection on inputs - critical for hot-swap and partial-power-down systems. The device exhibits 4 pF typical input capacitance and 22 pF power-dissipation capacitance, supporting reliable operation up to 100 MHz under light capacitive loads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.0 V to 5.5 V - supports dual-supply system integration and battery-powered 3.3 V logic rails |
| Propagation Delay (tPD) | 2.5 ns (typ) at VCC = 5 V, CL = 15 pF - enables timing-critical signal inversion in high-speed control paths |
| Output Drive Capability | ±8 mA at VCC = 4.5 V - sufficient to drive multiple 74VHC inputs or small capacitive loads directly |
| Input Overvoltage Tolerance | −0.5 V to +7.0 V - eliminates need for external clamping diodes when interfacing 5 V signals into 3 V systems |
| Quiescent Supply Current | 1.0 µA (max) at TA = 25°C - enables ultra-low static power in always-on monitoring circuits |
| Operating Temperature | −55 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control environments |
| ESD Withstand Voltage | 2000 V HBM - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 for board-level ESD robustness |
Pinout & Package

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for all internal logic and output stages; must be low-impedance connection to minimize ground bounce |
| 2 | NC | No-connect terminal - left floating per design; no internal connection or function |
| 3 | IN A | CMOS-compatible digital input with overvoltage-tolerant structure; accepts 0–7 V independent of VCC |
| 4 | VCC | Positive supply rail; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required within 5 mm for stable high-speed switching |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the MC74VHC1GU04DF2G can tolerate?
The MC74VHC1GU04DF2G supports DC input voltages from −0.5 V to +7.0 V, independent of VCC level. This allows safe interfacing of 5 V signals into 3.3 V systems without external clamping components. The specification is validated per JEDEC JESD78 latch-up testing and confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official datasheet.
Does the MC74VHC1GU04DF2G have a no-connect (NC) pin, and how should it be handled?
Yes, Pin 2 of the MC74VHC1GU04DF2G is designated NC (no-connect) and has no internal connection. It must be left unconnected on the PCB - neither tied to GND nor VCC. This is explicitly defined in the Pin Assignment diagram and confirmed in the package marking and layout guidelines of the datasheet.
Is the MC74VHC1GU04DF2G suitable for use in automotive applications?
Yes, the MC74VHC1GU04DF2G is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 1: −40 °C to +125 °C) and PPAP-capable. It is widely deployed in automotive body control modules, lighting drivers, and sensor interface circuits. Its 7 V input tolerance and robust ESD performance (2000 V HBM) meet stringent automotive EMC and reliability requirements.
What is the typical power dissipation of the MC74VHC1GU04DF2G at 5 V supply and 10 MHz toggle frequency?
At VCC = 5.0 V and fin = 10 MHz, the dynamic power dissipation of the MC74VHC1GU04DF2G is calculated using CPD = 22 pF: PD = CPD × VCC² × fin + ICC × VCC ≈ 5.5 mW + 0.005 mW. Total typical power is ~5.5 mW - verified using the formula and CPD value specified in the AC Electrical Characteristics section of the datasheet.
Can the MC74VHC1GU04DF2G be used to build a crystal oscillator circuit?
Yes, the MC74VHC1GU04DF2G's unbuffered inverter architecture and low input capacitance (4 pF) make it suitable for Pierce oscillator configurations with quartz crystals or ceramic resonators. External feedback resistor (typically 1–10 MΩ) and load capacitors are required, as documented in onsemi Application Note AND8003/D.
