Product details
Overview
NC7SZ125FHX-L22175 from onsemi is a single ultra-high-speed CMOS buffer with three-state output, designed for level translation and bus isolation in space-constrained digital systems. It operates across 1.65 V to 5.5 V VCC, delivers ±24 mA output drive at 3 V, and achieves 2.6 ns typical propagation delay into 50 pF at 5 V - enabling high-speed signal conditioning in low-voltage logic interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the NC7SZ125FHX-L22175 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its overvoltage-tolerant inputs (up to 5.5 V independent of VCC), power-down high-impedance I/O behavior, and MicroPak2 package compatibility with fine-pitch PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The NC7SZ125FHX-L22175 implements a single non-inverting buffer with active-low three-state enable (OE), supporting bidirectional bus control and voltage-level translation between mixed-supply domains. Its input structure tolerates 5.5 V regardless of VCC, allowing safe interfacing between 5 V legacy peripherals and 1.8–3.3 V logic cores.
It features proprietary noise/EMI reduction circuitry and operates reliably from −40 °C to +85 °C. The device enters high-impedance state on both inputs and outputs when VCC = 0 V, preventing back-powering and ensuring clean power sequencing in multi-rail systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - supports interoperability across 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic families without level shifters. |
| tPD (Typ.) | 2.6 ns into 50 pF at 5 V - enables sub-400 MHz signal routing in compact timing-critical paths. |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA at 3 V VCC - drives multiple LVTTL/LVCMOS loads or short PCB traces without buffering. |
| Input Overvoltage | Up to 5.5 V independent of VCC - permits 5 V-to-3 V translation without external clamping diodes. |
| IOFF Leakage | ≤10 µA at VCC = 0 V - prevents current injection during power-down or hot-swap events. |
| Package | MicroPak2 (UDFN6, 1.0 mm × 1.0 mm, 0.35 mm pitch) - provides minimal footprint and thermal resistance (154 °C/W). |
Pinout & Package
NC7SZ125FHX-L22175 is packaged in MicroPak2 (UDFN6, Case 517DP), a 1.0 mm × 1.0 mm, 0.35 mm pitch, 6-terminal leadless package with wettable flanks for automated optical inspection. Pin 1 is marked by a laser-etched dot; the package is Pb-free, halogen-free, and RoHS compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OE) | Active-low three-state enable input | Drives output Y to high-impedance when HIGH; enables buffer pass-through when LOW. |
| 2 (A) | Buffer input | Accepts logic signals up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC; no external pull-up required. |
| 3 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for all internal logic and output current; must be low-inductance connection. |
| 4 (Y) | Three-state non-inverting output | Drives load actively when OE = LOW; floats to high-Z when OE = HIGH - isolates bus segments. |
| 5 (NC) | No-connect terminal | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - not tied to GND or VCC. |
| 6 (VCC) | Supply voltage | Power rail for internal logic and output stage; bypass capacitor (0.1 µF) required within 2 mm. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-High Speed | 2.6 ns tPD (typ.) at 5 V enables use in >300 MHz clock/data paths with minimal skew. |
| Overvoltage-Tolerant Inputs | 5.5 V tolerant inputs allow direct connection to 5 V buses while powered from 1.8 V or 3.3 V rails. |
| Power-Down High-Z I/O | Inputs and outputs go high-impedance at VCC = 0 V - eliminates backfeeding and simplifies power sequencing. |
| Low Dynamic Power | CPD = 17 pF at 3.3 V - reduces switching current and EMI in high-frequency toggle applications. |
| EMI Reduction Circuitry | Proprietary slew-rate control minimizes ground bounce and radiated emissions in dense layouts. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buffer-with-three-state-output applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1G125DBVR | Same 5-pin SOT-23 package; 3.3 V optimized (1.65–5.5 V); tPD = 3.7 ns (typ.) at 3.3 V; lower drive (±24 mA only at 3.3 V). | Preferred where board space allows SOT-23-5 and thermal budget permits higher RθJA (320 °C/W vs. 154 °C/W). | Select when existing layout uses SOT-23-5 and cost sensitivity outweighs footprint/thermal advantages of MicroPak2. |
| 74LVC1G125GW,125 | SC-70-5 (SC-88A) package; identical VCC range and drive; tPD = 2.9 ns (typ.) at 3.3 V; same pinout as SC-88A variant of NC7SZ125. | Better suited for reflow-compatible hand-soldering than MicroPak2; lacks wettable flanks for AOI. | Choose when assembly process lacks UDFN-capable solder paste printing or X-ray inspection capability. |
Compared with SN74LVC1G125DBVR and 74LVC1G125GW,125, the NC7SZ125FHX-L22175 offers superior thermal performance and smallest footprint due to MicroPak2 packaging, while maintaining identical functional behavior and broader overvoltage tolerance - making it optimal for ultra-dense portable and automotive modules.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for NC7SZ125FHX-L22175?
The NC7SZ125FHX-L22175 is specified for operation from −40 °C to +85 °C ambient temperature. This range is validated per onsemi's Recommended Operating Conditions table and applies to all electrical parameters including propagation delay, output drive, and leakage current. The device maintains full functionality across this range when used with appropriate PCB thermal design for the MicroPak2 package.
Does NC7SZ125FHX-L22175 support 5 V logic inputs while powered from 1.8 V?
Yes, NC7SZ125FHX-L22175 supports input voltages up to 5.5 V independent of VCC. When powered from 1.8 V, its inputs tolerate 5 V signals without damage or clamping - enabling direct 5 V-to-1.8 V level translation. This is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and DC Electrical Characteristics sections of the datasheet.
What is the function of the NC pin on NC7SZ125FHX-L22175?
Pin 5 on NC7SZ125FHX-L22175 is designated NC (No Connect) and is internally unconnected. It must remain electrically floating - neither tied to GND nor VCC. This pin exists for mechanical symmetry and package compatibility; routing traces or vias to it may compromise signal integrity or thermal performance of adjacent pins.
How does the three-state enable (OE) work on NC7SZ125FHX-L22175?
The OE pin on NC7SZ125FHX-L22175 is active-low: when OE = LOW, the output Y follows input A (non-inverting buffer action); when OE = HIGH, Y enters high-impedance state. This behavior holds across the full 1.65–5.5 V VCC range and persists even when VCC = 0 V - ensuring safe bus isolation during power transitions.
Is NC7SZ125FHX-L22175 pin-compatible with other TinyLogic variants like NC7SZ05 or NC7SZ17?
No, NC7SZ125FHX-L22175 is not pin-compatible with NC7SZ05 (inverter) or NC7SZ17 (buffer with Schmitt-trigger input). While all share the MicroPak2 package outline, their pin assignments differ: NC7SZ125FHX-L22175 uses Pin 1 = OE, Pin 2 = A, Pin 4 = Y; NC7SZ05 has Pin 1 = A, Pin 2 = Y; NC7SZ17 has Pin 1 = A, Pin 2 = Y, no OE pin. Substitution requires PCB redesign.
