Product details
Overview
NC7SP04L6X from ON Semiconductor is a single ultra-low-power (ULP) inverter in the TinyLogic® family, designed for signal-level logic inversion in battery-powered and space-constrained systems. It operates across 0.9V–3.6V VCC, delivers 4.0ns typical propagation delay at 3.3V, supports 3.6V over-voltage tolerant I/Os, and features power-off high-impedance I/Os - ideal for portable medical sensors and IoT edge nodes.
For engineers reviewing the NC7SP04L6X datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified package mapping, confirmed AC/DC electrical specs across voltage rails, validated pin functions for MicroPak™-6, real-world drive capability (±2.6mA at 3.0V), and two functionally comparable alternatives with documented differences.
Technical Context
The NC7SP04L6X implements a minimal-stage CMOS inverter topology optimized for ultra-low static and dynamic power, with Quiet Series™ circuitry to suppress switching noise and EMI. Its input threshold scales with VCC (VIH = 0.65×VCC, VIL = 0.35×VCC), enabling reliable operation across sub-1V to 3.6V supply ranges without external level-shifting.
It integrates power-off high-impedance behavior on both input and output terminals when VCC = 0V, preventing back-driving of upstream/downstream circuitry. The device uses advanced low-threshold CMOS fabrication to achieve best-in-class speed-to-power ratio - e.g., 27.0ns tPD at 0.9V and 4.0ns at 3.3V under 10pF load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 0.9V to 3.6V - enables direct interface with Li-ion, coin-cell, and multi-rail embedded systems without regulators |
| tPD (Typical) | 4.0ns at 3.3V/10pF - supports >100MHz toggle rates in low-noise digital control paths |
| IOH/IOL | ±2.6mA at 3.0V - sufficient to drive multiple 74LVC inputs or small LED indicators directly |
| IIN Leakage | ±0.1µA max at 25°C - minimizes battery drain in always-on wake-up detection circuits |
| Over-Voltage Tolerance | I/Os rated to 3.6V regardless of VCC - allows safe interfacing with higher-voltage peripherals in mixed-supply designs |
| Power-Off Hi-Z | Inputs and outputs enter high-impedance state when VCC = 0V - prevents current leakage during system sleep or hot-swap |
| CIN | 2pF - reduces capacitive loading on driving gates and improves signal integrity in dense layouts |
Pinout & Package
NC7SP04L6X is housed in a 6-lead MicroPak™ package (1.00mm wide, JEDEC MO-252 UAAD variant), featuring an ultra-compact footprint (1.0 × 1.0 mm body) and 0.5mm lead pitch. The package uses solderable copper leads with no exposed pad and requires reflow-compatible PCB land pattern per FSC recommendation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 5 | NC | No-connect pins - must remain unconnected; no internal bonding or functionality |
| 2 | A | Inverting input - accepts TTL- or CMOS-compatible logic levels across full VCC range |
| 3 | GND | Ground reference - must be connected to system ground plane for stable noise immunity and power return |
| 4 | Y | Inverted output - drives complementary logic state with rail-to-rail swing and ±2.6mA drive strength at 3.0V |
| 6 | VCC | Supply voltage - powers internal logic; decoupling capacitor (100nF) recommended within 2mm of pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent ICC | 0.9µA max at 25°C - extends shelf life and runtime in energy-harvesting applications |
| Quiet Series™ EMI reduction | Controlled slew rate and internal noise filtering - lowers radiated emissions by >6dB vs. standard TinyLogic |
| Input threshold scaling | VIH/VIL track VCC (0.65×/0.35×) - ensures robust noise margins across all operating voltages |
| MicroPak™ packaging | 1.0 × 1.0 mm footprint - saves >70% board area vs. SC70-5, critical for wearable and hearing aid PCBs |
| Over-voltage tolerant I/Os | Withstand 3.6V input/output regardless of VCC - eliminates need for external clamping diodes in mixed-voltage interconnects |
Applications
| Wearable Health Monitor | Wireless Sensor Node |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Signal conditioning for optical heart-rate sensor output before ADC sampling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inverts analog-comparator output to match MCU interrupt polarity requirements. Use Value: Ultra-low ICC (0.9µA) preserves battery life over multi-week deployments; 0.9V operation enables direct use of depleted coin cells. |
Use Scenario: Level-shifting and signal inversion between 1.8V microcontroller GPIO and 3.3V LoRa transceiver control lines. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Logic-level translator with bidirectional voltage tolerance (3.6V I/O at 1.8V VCC). Use Value: Eliminates discrete MOSFET translators; over-voltage tolerance prevents latch-up during transceiver power sequencing. |
| Industrial Control Panel | Portable Diagnostic Tool |
Use Scenario: Debouncing mechanical push-button inputs feeding FPGA configuration logic. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Single-gate inverter with Schmitt-trigger-like noise immunity via Quiet Series™ design. Use Value: Reduces false triggers in electrically noisy factory environments; 2pF CIN minimizes trace stub reflections. |
Use Scenario: Power sequencing enable logic for dual-battery backup system in handheld ultrasound probe. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inverter driving enable input of load switch controlling auxiliary rail. Use Value: Power-off Hi-Z prevents backfeed from auxiliary rail into main controller during battery swap; 1.0mm MicroPak™ fits tight enclosure constraints. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1G04DBVR | Higher drive (±32mA), wider VCC (1.65–5.5V), larger SOT-23-5 package (2.9 × 1.6 mm) | Supports higher-speed interfaces (e.g., SPI clock inversion) but consumes >10× more ICC at 1.8V | Choose when driving heavier loads or requiring 5V-tolerant I/O; avoid if board space or sub-1µA standby is critical. |
| 74LVC1G04GW,125 | Same MicroPak™-6 footprint, identical pinout, but lacks over-voltage tolerant I/Os (max VIN = VCC + 0.3V) | Requires strict voltage domain isolation; unsuitable for mixed-supply signal routing without external protection | Choose only in single-rail 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V systems where I/O voltage matching is guaranteed; verify layout isolation. |
Compared with NC7SP04L6X, SN74LVC1G04DBVR offers higher drive and broader voltage support but sacrifices battery life and board area; 74LVC1G04GW,125 matches the MicroPak™ form factor but removes over-voltage tolerance - making NC7SP04L6X uniquely suited for compact, multi-rail, ultra-low-power edge sensing.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for NC7SP04L6X?
The NC7SP04L6X is rated for free-air operating temperatures from –40°C to +85°C, with junction temperature limited to +150°C under bias. Thermal resistance θJA is 500°C/W for the MicroPak™-6 package, so sustained 85°C ambient operation requires careful PCB copper pour and thermal relief design to avoid exceeding TJ limits.
Does NC7SP04L6X support true 0.9V logic operation?
Yes, NC7SP04L6X is fully specified down to 0.9V VCC: propagation delay is 27.0ns (typical), output drive is ±20µA, and VIH/VIL thresholds scale correctly (0.65×/0.35×VCC). All DC and AC parameters in the datasheet include 0.9V test conditions, confirming functional operation at this rail.
Are pins 1 and 5 on NC7SP04L6X required to be grounded or left floating?
Pins 1 and 5 on NC7SP04L6X are No-Connect (NC) terminals with no internal connection. They must remain unconnected - neither grounded nor tied to VCC. Routing traces or vias to these pads may cause mechanical stress or solder bridging; the recommended land pattern isolates them completely.
Can NC7SP04L6X drive a 15pF capacitive load at 10MHz while maintaining low power?
Yes. At 3.3V VCC, NC7SP04L6X exhibits 4.0ns tPD with 10pF load and 8pF CPD (power dissipation capacitance). With CL = 15pF and f = 10MHz, dynamic power is PDYN ≈ CPD × VCC² × f = 8pF × (3.3V)² × 10MHz ≈ 870µW - well within its 130mW package power limit and consistent with ultra-low-power system goals.
Is NC7SP04L6X pin-compatible with NC7SP04P5X?
No. NC7SP04L6X uses a 6-lead MicroPak™ package with pins 1/5 as NC, while NC7SP04P5X uses a 5-lead SC70 package with no NC pins. Pin assignments differ: SC70 assigns A/GND/Y/VCC to pins 2/3/4/5; MicroPak™ assigns A/GND/Y/VCC to pins 2/3/4/6. PCB redesign is required for substitution.
