onsemi NLU1G08AMX1TCG

Overview

NLU1G08AMX1TCG from onsemi is a single 2-input AND gate in ultra-small UDFN6 (1.45 × 1.0 mm) package, designed for high-speed logic interfacing in space-constrained applications. It operates from 1.65 V to 5.5 V, delivers 3.5 ns typical propagation delay at 5.0 V, supports ±12.5 mA output drive, and features overvoltage-tolerant (OVT) I/O pins rated to 7.0 V independent of supply voltage - enabling robust level-shifting in mixed-voltage systems.

For engineers reviewing the NLU1G08AMX1TCG datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include its OVT input/output capability, ultra-compact 6-pin UDFN footprint, guaranteed operation across −55°C to +125°C, and compatibility with 1.8 V/3.3 V/5 V logic families without external clamping.

Technical Context

The NLU1G08AMX1TCG implements standard positive-logic AND functionality with balanced tPLH/tPHL propagation delays and no internal pull-ups or pull-downs. Its CMOS input structure provides power-down protection and supports hot-swap capability due to OVT inputs that remain functional even when VCC = 0 V.

All six terminals are electrically active: two inputs (IN A, IN B), one output (OUT Y), one VCC, one GND, and one NC (no-connect) pin. The device meets JESD78 latch-up immunity ≥ ±500 mA and is qualified to MSL Level 1, supporting lead-free reflow up to 260°C.

FAQ

What is the maximum input voltage rating for NLU1G08AMX1TCG, and does it depend on VCC?

The NLU1G08AMX1TCG supports DC input voltages from −0.5 V to +7.0 V on all I/O pins, regardless of the applied VCC value. This overvoltage tolerance is intrinsic to its input/output structure and does not require VCC to be powered - enabling safe interfacing with higher-voltage subsystems even during power-down states. This specification is verified per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table in the official datasheet.

Is NLU1G08AMX1TCG pin-compatible with other variants in the NLU1G08 family?

Yes, all NLU1G08 variants - including NLU1G08MUTCG (1.2 × 1.0 mm), NLU1G08AMUTCG (1.45 × 1.0 mm), and NLU1G08CMUTCG (1.0 × 1.0 mm) - share identical pin assignment and function mapping across the UDFN6 package. The NLU1G08AMX1TCG uses the same 1.45 × 1.0 mm variant (case 517AQ) and maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the family's standardized footprint and terminal layout.

Does NLU1G08AMX1TCG require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its inputs?

No, the NLU1G08AMX1TCG has no internal pull-up or pull-down resistors and does not require external ones for basic AND gate operation. Its CMOS inputs exhibit high impedance (IIN ≤ ±1.0 µA) and are designed to be driven actively by preceding logic stages. External resistors are only needed if a defined default state is required during power-up or floating conditions - not inherent to the NLU1G08AMX1TCG's core functionality.

What is the thermal performance of NLU1G08AMX1TCG in continuous operation?

The NLU1G08AMX1TCG is rated for junction temperatures up to +150°C under bias and has been characterized for operation from −55°C to +125°C ambient. Its UDFN6 package includes an exposed thermal pad that must be soldered to a PCB copper pour for effective heat dissipation. Under typical conditions (VCC = 3.3 V, 1 MHz toggle, 15 pF load), junction temperature rise remains below 10°C above ambient, ensuring stable performance in sealed enclosures.

Can NLU1G08AMX1TCG be used in 1.8 V logic systems with 5 V tolerant inputs?

Yes, the NLU1G08AMX1TCG operates down to 1.65 V VCC and accepts input voltages up to 7.0 V independently - making it ideal for 1.8 V systems that interface with legacy 5 V peripherals. When VCC = 1.8 V, VIH is guaranteed ≥ 1.26 V and VIL ≤ 0.54 V, while inputs remain protected against 5 V signals without damage or leakage, satisfying level-shifting requirements without external components.
