Product details
Overview
MC74VHC32DT from onsemi is a high-speed CMOS quad 2-input OR gate in TSSOP-14 package, operating from 2.0 V to 5.5 V, with 3.8 ns typical propagation delay at 5.0 V and full 5.0 V CMOS-level output swing. It features TTL-compatible input thresholds when used as a 3.3 V-to-5.0 V level shifter in industrial control logic interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the MC74VHC32DT datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its automotive-grade −Q qualification, 5.5 V tolerant inputs, low-noise dynamic output behavior (VOLP ≤ 0.8 V), and compatibility with mixed-voltage system interfacing where rail translation and noise immunity are critical.
Technical Context
The MC74VHC32DT implements four independent OR gates (Y = A + B) using silicon-gate CMOS technology, achieving bipolar-Schottky TTL speed while retaining CMOS power efficiency. Its three-stage internal architecture includes a buffered output stage for enhanced noise immunity and stable drive capability.
Input structures tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC, enabling safe interfacing between 3 V and 5 V domains; output stages deliver rail-to-rail CMOS swings and remain protected during power-down (VCC = 0 V), supporting hot-insertion and battery-backup scenarios.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Function | Quad 2-input OR gate (Y = A + B), fully independent channels |
| Propagation Delay | 3.8 ns typical at VCC = 5.0 V, CL = 15 pF - enables >100 MHz toggle rates in clean logic paths |
| Supply Range | 2.0 V to 5.5 V - supports direct operation across 3.3 V and 5.0 V systems without level shifters |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | −0.5 V to +6.5 V - allows safe connection to 5 V buses even when powered from 3.3 V |
| Output Drive | ±8 mA at VCC = 4.5 V - sufficient to drive multiple standard CMOS loads or one TTL input |
| Quiescent Current | 2.0 µA max at TA = 25°C - ensures negligible standby power in battery-sensitive applications |
| ESD Rating | Human Body Model > 2000 V - meets industrial handling requirements without special ESD controls |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad 2-input OR gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MC74VHC32DR2G | SOIC-14 package (Case 751A), 8.75 mm × 3.9 mm body, 1.27 mm pitch - larger footprint, higher thermal resistance (116 °C/W) | Suitable for through-hole prototyping or legacy PCBs not supporting TSSOP; less suitable for space-constrained automotive modules | Select MC74VHC32DR2G only when board layout requires SOIC or thermal mass exceeds TSSOP limits. |
| SN74LVC32APWR | TI part with 1.65–5.5 V range, 3.9 ns tPD at 3.3 V, but input tolerance limited to VCC + 0.3 V - no 5.5 V absolute max rating | Not safe for 5 V bus interfacing without external clamping; lacks AEC-Q100 qualification and power-off protection | Choose SN74LVC32APWR only in pure 3.3 V systems where cost is prioritized over robustness and automotive compliance. |
Compared with MC74VHC32DR2G, the MC74VHC32DT offers 40% smaller PCB area and better high-frequency noise rejection due to tighter lead inductance; versus SN74LVC32APWR, it provides guaranteed 5.5 V input survivability and automotive qualification - critical for field-reliable designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for MC74VHC32DT?
The MC74VHC32DT supports a DC supply voltage range of 2.0 V to 5.5 V. Its absolute maximum rating is +6.5 V on VCC, but operation above 5.5 V is not recommended or characterized. All DC electrical specifications, including propagation delay and output drive, are guaranteed only within the 2.0–5.5 V range per the datasheet's Recommended Operating Conditions table.
Is MC74VHC32DT compatible with 5 V TTL inputs?
No - the MC74VHC32DT has standard CMOS input thresholds (VIH ≥ 70% VCC, VIL ≤ 30% VCC) and is not TTL-input-compatible. For TTL-level input compatibility, use the pin-compatible MC74VHCT32A variant instead. The MC74VHC32DT can interface *to* 5 V TTL outputs via its 5.5 V-tolerant inputs, but cannot directly accept 0.8 V/2.0 V TTL logic levels as inputs without external conditioning.
Does MC74VHC32DT support hot insertion?
Yes - the MC74VHC32DT includes power-down protection on all inputs, allowing them to tolerate voltages up to 5.5 V even when VCC = 0 V. This feature prevents latch-up or damage during hot insertion into live backplanes or systems with uncontrolled power sequencing, making it suitable for modular industrial and telecom equipment.
What is the meaning of the "−Q" suffix in MC74VHC32DTR2G−Q*?
The "−Q" suffix denotes an automotive-grade version meeting AEC-Q100 stress testing requirements and supporting PPAP (Production Part Approval Process). It includes controlled site and change management - meaning all wafer fabrication, assembly, and test occur at qualified facilities with documented process controls, traceability, and failure analysis capability required for automotive Tier 1 suppliers.
Can MC74VHC32DT drive a 50 pF capacitive load at 5 MHz?
Yes - the MC74VHC32DT is characterized for CL = 50 pF loads, with propagation delay specified at 5.5 ns (typ) at VCC = 5.0 V. At 5 MHz (200 ns period), the gate's 3.8–8.5 ns delay introduces negligible timing skew. Its ±8 mA output drive comfortably handles the dynamic current (I = CL × dV/dt ≈ 2 mA peak) required for clean 5 V transitions at that frequency.
