Product details
Overview
NL37WZ04USG-Q from onsemi is a triple CMOS inverter IC designed for low-voltage, high-speed logic translation and signal inversion in automotive and industrial systems. It operates from 1.65 V to 5.5 V, delivers 2.3 ns typical propagation delay at 5 V, supports ±24 mA drive strength at 3.0 V, and features IOFF partial power-down protection. It is used in CAN/LIN bus interface level-shifting and microcontroller GPIO expansion circuits.
For engineers reviewing the NL37WZ04USG-Q datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification, overvoltage-tolerant inputs/outputs up to 5.5 V, US8 package footprint, and guaranteed operation across −55 °C to +125 °C.
Technical Context
The NL37WZ04USG-Q implements three independent single-input inverters in a single US8 package, with rail-to-rail input voltage tolerance and output drive capability compliant with LVTTL and LVCMOS logic families. Its IOFF circuitry disables I/O paths when VCC = 0 V, preventing back-driving in partial-power-down states.
It uses advanced CMOS process technology with chip complexity under 100 FETs, enabling ultra-low static current (≤10 µA ICC) and dynamic power dissipation governed by CPD = 9–11 pF. Propagation delay varies with supply voltage: 4.4 ns (typ) at 1.65–1.95 V, down to 1.8 ns (typ) at 4.5–5.5 V under 15 pF load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - supports mixed-voltage system interfacing without level shifters |
| tPD (Typ) | 2.3 ns at VCC = 5 V, CL = 15 pF - enables >200 MHz toggle rates in clean signal paths |
| IOFF Support | Active when VCC = 0 V - prevents current leakage during hot-swap or sleep-mode transitions |
| Drive Strength | ±24 mA at VCC = 3.0 V - sufficient to directly drive multiple 74LVC inputs or small LEDs |
| Input Tolerance | −0.5 V to +6.5 V - allows safe connection to 5 V signals even when powered from 1.8 V |
| Operating Temp | −55 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control environments |
| AEC-Q100 | Qualified - meets stress test requirements for Grade 1 automotive applications |
Pinout & Package
Package: US8 (Case 493), 2.1 mm × 2.0 mm × 0.55 mm body, 0.5 mm pitch, lead-free, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | A1 | Inverter 1 input - accepts logic-level signals; tolerant to 5.5 V regardless of VCC |
| 2 | Y3 | Inverter 3 output - inverted copy of A3; drives downstream loads with full rail-swing |
| 3 | A2 | Inverter 2 input - electrically isolated from other inputs; no internal crosstalk |
| 4 | GND | Ground reference - must be connected to system ground plane for noise immunity and ESD path |
| 5 | Y2 | Inverter 2 output - complements A2; supports 24 mA sink/source at 3.0 V |
| 6 | A3 | Inverter 3 input - shares same electrical specs as A1/A2; no timing skew between channels |
| 7 | Y1 | Inverter 1 output - matches Y2/Y3 performance; all outputs specified identically |
| 8 | VCC | Positive supply - powers all three inverters; IOFF active if disconnected or at 0 V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Overvoltage-Tolerant I/O | Inputs and outputs withstand −0.5 V to +6.5 V - eliminates external clamping diodes in mixed-supply systems |
| IOFF Partial Power-Down | Blocks current flow between powered and unpowered domains - critical for hot-plug and battery-backed subsystems |
| Low Propagation Delay | As low as 1.8 ns (typ) at 5 V - preserves signal integrity in high-speed clock or data strobe paths |
| Wide Temperature Range | Guaranteed operation from −55 °C to +125 °C - validated for engine control units and motor drives |
| Pb-Free & RoHS | Fully compliant with automotive ELV and industrial WEEE directives - no hazardous substance restrictions in BOM |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MC74VHC14DTG | Schmitt-trigger inputs; higher VCC min (2 V); no IOFF; 5.5 ns tPD at 5 V | Better noise immunity but unsuitable for partial power-down systems | Select when hysteresis is required for slow-rising signals; avoid where VCC sequencing or hot-swap is needed |
| SN74LVC1G04DBVR | Single inverter; SOT-23-5 package; identical VCC range and IOFF; 3.7 ns tPD at 3.3 V | Requires three devices and more PCB area; same logic function per channel | Choose for design flexibility or legacy board reuse; not space- or cost-optimized vs. NL37WZ04USG-Q |
Compared with MC74VHC14DTG and SN74LVC1G04DBVR, the NL37WZ04USG-Q uniquely combines triple integration, IOFF, sub-3 ns speed at 5 V, and AEC-Q100 qualification - making it optimal for compact, automotive-grade signal inversion where power-state coordination matters.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage for NL37WZ04USG-Q?
The NL37WZ04USG-Q supports a DC supply voltage (VCC) from −0.5 V to +6.5 V, with recommended operation between 1.65 V and 5.5 V. Inputs and outputs tolerate −0.5 V to +6.5 V regardless of VCC level, enabling safe interfacing with 5 V signals even when powered from 1.8 V. This overvoltage tolerance is confirmed in the Maximum Ratings table on page 3 of the datasheet.
Does NL37WZ04USG-Q support partial power-down functionality?
Yes, the NL37WZ04USG-Q includes IOFF circuitry that actively disables input and output paths when VCC = 0 V, preventing back-current flow between powered and unpowered sections of a system. This feature is explicitly documented in the Features list and verified in the DC Electrical Characteristics table under IOFF Power Off Leakage Current (≤10 µA). It is essential for hot-swap and low-power sleep mode designs.
What is the propagation delay of NL37WZ04USG-Q at 3.3 V supply?
At VCC = 3.0 V to 3.6 V and CL = 15 pF, the NL37WZ04USG-Q exhibits a typical propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL) of 2.2 ns, with a maximum of 3.8 ns over the full temperature range (−55 °C to +125 °C). These values are specified in the AC Electrical Characteristics table on page 4 of the datasheet and apply uniformly to all three inverter channels.
Is NL37WZ04USG-Q qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the NL37WZ04USG-Q carries the "−Q" suffix denoting AEC-Q100 qualification and PPAP capability. It is rated for Grade 1 temperature operation (−40 °C to +125 °C junction), though the datasheet specifies extended operation to −55 °C. The device meets stress testing requirements for automotive use cases including engine control, body electronics, and infotainment interfaces.
What package type does NL37WZ04USG-Q use, and what are its dimensions?
The NL37WZ04USG-Q is housed in the US8 package (Case 493), a 2.1 mm × 2.0 mm × 0.55 mm surface-mount outline with 0.5 mm lead pitch. Pin 1 orientation is marked with a dot or beveled edge per the marking diagram on page 6.
