Product details
Overview
NL17SZ126P5T5G from onsemi is a single non-inverting 3-state buffer IC designed for voltage-level translation and bus isolation in low-power digital systems. It operates from 1.65 V to 5.5 V, delivers 2.3 ns typical propagation delay at 5 V, supports ±24 mA output drive at 3.0 V, and features IOFF partial power-down protection. It is used in portable instrumentation, battery-powered microcontroller I/O expansion, and logic-level bridging between mixed-voltage subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the NL17SZ126P5T5G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified package mapping (SOT-953), confirmed 5-pin terminal roles, real-world timing and drive specifications, and two validated alternative parts with documented functional and layout implications.
Technical Context
The NL17SZ126P5T5G implements a single-channel non-inverting buffer with active-high 3-state enable (OE), enabling bidirectional bus control without signal inversion. Its input and output pins tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC, supporting mixed-voltage interfacing across 1.65–5.5 V domains.
It integrates IOFF circuitry that disables output leakage when VCC = 0 V, preventing back-powering of powered-down rails. The device uses sub-100-FET CMOS logic, optimized for ultra-low static current (≤10 µA ICC) and fast switching with 2.5 pF input/output capacitance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - Enables interoperability across 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic families without level shifters. |
| tPD (Typ) | 2.3 ns at VCC = 5 V - Supports >200 MHz data rates in short-trace applications like sensor interface buses. |
| IOH/IOL | ±24 mA at VCC = 3.0 V - Drives standard TTL loads and multiple 74-series inputs without external buffers. |
| Input/Output Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - Allows safe connection to higher-voltage peripherals even when VCC = 1.65 V. |
| IOFF Leakage | ≤10 µA at VCC = 0 V - Prevents current backflow into unpowered sections during partial system shutdown. |
| Operating Temperature | −55 °C to +125 °C - Qualified for industrial and automotive under-hood environments. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-953 (1.00 mm × 0.80 mm × 0.37 mm, 0.35 mm pitch) - ultra-compact 5-pin package suitable for space-constrained PCB layouts in wearables and IoT edge nodes.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Input A | Non-inverting data input; accepts 0–5.5 V signals independent of VCC level. |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal logic and output stages; must be low-impedance. |
| 3 | OE | Active-high output enable; drives Y high-impedance when low, enabling bus sharing. |
| 4 | Y | Buffered non-inverted output; tri-statable, capable of sourcing/sinking ±24 mA at 3.0 V. |
| 5 | VCC | Positive supply rail; powers internal logic and determines output voltage swing (VOL/VOH). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide VCC range (1.65–5.5 V) | Eliminates need for separate level translators in multi-rail systems such as MCU + sensor + display interfaces. |
| IOFF partial power-down protection | Prevents destructive back-current flow when VCC is off but I/O lines remain energized - critical for hot-swap and modular designs. |
| Overvoltage-tolerant I/O (to 5.5 V) | Enables direct connection to legacy 5 V peripherals without clamping diodes or resistors, reducing BOM count. |
| Low dynamic power (CPD = 11 pF @ 5.5 V) | Minimizes switching current in high-frequency clock distribution or data strobe paths, extending battery life. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified option available | Supports automotive infotainment and body electronics where reliability under thermal cycling and vibration is mandatory. |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Interface | Portable Medical Device I/O Expansion |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar non-inverting 3-state buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1G125DBVR | Same SOT-23-5 footprint; 1.65–5.5 V operation; tPD = 3.7 ns (typ) at 3.3 V; IOFF not supported. | Lacks IOFF - unsuitable for partial power-down systems; requires external isolation for hot-swap use cases. | Select when board space allows SOT-23-5 and IOFF is unnecessary; verify GND/VCC decoupling meets TI's layout guidelines. |
| 74LVC1G17GW,125 | SC-70-5 package (same pinout as SC-88A); 1.65–5.5 V; tPD = 2.9 ns (typ) at 3.3 V; includes Schmitt-trigger inputs. | Input hysteresis improves noise immunity but adds ~0.5 ns delay; incompatible with clean-edge clock signals requiring minimal jitter. | Choose for noisy industrial environments with slow-rising signals; avoid in high-speed synchronous data paths due to added propagation uncertainty. |
Compared with SN74LVC1G125DBVR and 74LVC1G17GW,125, the NL17SZ126P5T5G uniquely combines SOT-953 miniaturization, guaranteed IOFF, and sub-2.5 ns delay at 5 V - making it optimal for ultra-compact, mixed-rail, and partial-power-down embedded systems where layout density and fail-safe shutdown are design priorities.

The NL17SZ126P5T5G is rated for operation from −55 °C to +125 °C, meeting industrial and extended-temperature automotive requirements. This range is validated per the Recommended Operating Conditions table in the official onsemi datasheet (Rev. 20, January 2026), and applies to all SOT-953-packaged units including NL17SZ126P5T5G.
Does the NL17SZ126P5T5G support partial power-down functionality?
Yes, the NL17SZ126P5T5G includes IOFF circuitry that actively disables output leakage when VCC = 0 V, limiting current to ≤10 µA. This feature is explicitly specified in the DC Electrical Characteristics table and enables safe operation in systems with independently powered subsystems - a key capability confirmed for NL17SZ126P5T5G in the onsemi datasheet.
What is the pin 1 orientation for NL17SZ126P5T5G in tape-and-reel packaging?
Per the Device Ordering Information table on page 7 of the NL17SZ126 datasheet, NL17SZ126P5T5G in SOT-953 packaging has pin 1 oriented "Rotated 180° CW" in tape-and-reel format, with marking code "R". This orientation is specific to NL17SZ126P5T5G and differs from other variants like NL17SZ126DFT2G (Q4 orientation).
Can the NL17SZ126P5T5G interface safely with 5 V signals while operating at 1.8 V VCC?
Yes - the NL17SZ126P5T5G inputs and outputs are overvoltage tolerant up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level. When VCC = 1.8 V, the device correctly buffers 5 V inputs to 1.8 V-compatible outputs and maintains tri-state integrity, as verified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and DC Electrical Characteristics sections of the datasheet for NL17SZ126P5T5G.
