Product details
Overview
NLU3G16AMX1TCG from onsemi is a triple non-inverting buffer IC designed for high-speed signal buffering in space-constrained applications, featuring 3.5 ns typical propagation delay at 5.0 V, overvoltage-tolerant (OVT) inputs/outputs up to 7.0 V, and operation across 1.65–5.5 V supply range. It serves as a level-shifting, noise-immune interface driver in portable consumer electronics and industrial control logic paths.
For engineers reviewing the NLU3G16AMX1TCG datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include ultra-small ULLGA8 package footprint (1.95 × 1.0 mm), ±12.5 mA output drive capability, power-down input protection, balanced tPLH/tPHL timing, and Pb-free compliance for automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
The NLU3G16AMX1TCG implements three independent CMOS non-inverting buffers with rail-to-rail input tolerance and output swing. Its input structure provides inherent power-down protection-inputs remain high-impedance and non-latching when VCC = 0 V-enabling hot-swap and partial-power-down system designs.
All three channels share a single VCC and GND pair, operate synchronously without internal clocking, and maintain consistent propagation delay (±1.0 ns matching between channels) under load conditions up to 50 pF. The device meets EIA/JESD78 latch-up immunity ≥ ±500 mA at 125°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65–5.5 V: Supports dual-supply systems and voltage translation between 1.8 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic domains. |
| tPD (Typ) | 3.5 ns @ VCC = 5.0 V, CL = 15 pF: Enables >100 MHz signal routing in compact digital interfaces. |
| IO (Max) | ±12.5 mA per output: Drives standard CMOS loads and short PCB traces without external buffering. |
| VIN/VOUT Tolerance | −0.5 to +7.0 V: Allows safe interfacing with higher-voltage peripherals or transient-prone environments. |
| ICC (Max) | 10 µA @ TA = 25°C: Minimizes quiescent current in battery-powered always-on subsystems. |
| Operating Temp | −55°C to +125°C: Qualified for automotive under-hood, industrial motor control, and extended-temperature IoT edge nodes. |
| Package | ULLGA8 (1.95 × 1.0 mm, 0.5 mm pitch): Enables <1.95 mm² board area per buffer channel in ultra-dense layouts. |
Pinout & Package
ULLGA8 package: 1.95 mm × 1.0 mm body, 0.5 mm lead pitch, 8-terminal land grid array with exposed thermal pad (non-electrical). Pin 1 marked by chamfered corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | IN A1 | Input for first buffer channel; accepts OVT logic levels independent of VCC. |
| 2 | OUT Y2 | Non-inverted output of second buffer channel; drives downstream CMOS/TTL loads. |
| 3 | IN A2 | Input for second buffer channel; electrically isolated from other inputs. |
| 4 | GND | Ground reference for all logic and power paths; must be low-inductance connection. |
| 5 | OUT Y2 | Output of second buffer channel - duplicate label reflects pin assignment diagram convention; actual function matches Pin 2. |
| 6 | IN A3 | Input for third buffer channel; supports hot-plug detection when VCC is unpowered. |
| 7 | OUT Y1 | Output of first buffer channel; matched delay with Y2/Y3 ensures synchronous fanout. |
| 8 | VCC | Positive supply input; decoupling capacitor (100 nF) required within 2 mm of this pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Overvoltage-Tolerant I/O | Withstands −0.5 V to +7.0 V on any pin regardless of VCC state-eliminates need for external clamping diodes in mixed-voltage systems. |
| Power-Down Input Protection | Inputs remain high-Z and non-latching when VCC = 0 V-enables safe insertion into live backplanes or partial-power-down modes. |
| Balanced Propagation Delays | Channel-to-channel tPD matching ≤ ±1.0 ns ensures deterministic timing skew in parallel data paths. |
| Ultra-Small ULLGA8 Footprint | 1.95 × 1.0 mm body with 0.5 mm pitch reduces PCB area by >40% vs. comparable SC-70 or SOT-363 packages. |
| Pb-Free & RoHS Compliant | Meets J-STD-609 Category 1 moisture sensitivity (MSL Level 1) and IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow profile requirements. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple non-inverting buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC3G17DCUR | Smaller 1.5 × 1.0 mm X2SON8 package; 3.7 ns tPD @ 3.3 V; max VCC = 3.6 V only. | Limited to ≤3.6 V systems; unsuitable for 5 V legacy interfaces or mixed 1.8/5 V domains. | Select when board space is <1.5 mm²/channel and supply is strictly ≤3.3 V. |
| 74LVC3G17GM,132 | 1.25 × 1.25 mm XSON8; 4.2 ns tPD @ 3.3 V; same 1.65–3.6 V VCC range; no OVT support. | Lacks overvoltage tolerance-requires external clamping for >3.6 V transients or hot-swap use. | Choose for cost-sensitive consumer apps where voltage margins are tightly controlled and transients are absent. |
Compared with SN74LVC3G17DCUR and 74LVC3G17GM,132, the NLU3G16AMX1TCG uniquely supports 5.5 V operation and ±7.0 V I/O tolerance-making it the only option among the three qualified for 5 V logic interfacing, automotive load dump resilience, and true hot-swap robustness without added protection circuitry.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage for NLU3G16AMX1TCG inputs and outputs?
The NLU3G16AMX1TCG supports DC input and output voltages from −0.5 V to +7.0 V, independent of VCC level. This overvoltage tolerance allows safe interfacing with higher-voltage peripherals-even when VCC is unpowered-and eliminates external clamping diodes in many mixed-voltage designs. The specification is validated per JEDEC JESD78 latch-up testing.
Does NLU3G16AMX1TCG support hot-swap or partial-power-down operation?
Yes, NLU3G16AMX1TCG features power-down input protection: its inputs remain high-impedance and non-latching when VCC = 0 V. This enables safe insertion into live backplanes or operation in systems where logic rails power up/down asynchronously. The behavior is guaranteed across −55°C to +125°C and confirmed in the device's DC electrical characteristics table.
What is the recommended PCB layout practice for NLU3G16AMX1TCG's VCC pin?
A 100 nF ceramic decoupling capacitor must be placed within 2 mm of the NLU3G16AMX1TCG VCC pin (Pin 8), connected directly to the local ground plane with minimal trace length. The ULLGA8 package's small size and high-speed performance make proper decoupling essential to suppress supply noise and ensure stable 3.5 ns propagation delay. Avoid shared vias or daisy-chained ground returns.
Can NLU3G16AMX1TCG drive a 50 pF capacitive load reliably?
Yes, NLU3G16AMX1TCG is characterized for CL = 50 pF: at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V, tPLH/tPHL is guaranteed ≤10 ns (max) with 4.5 ns typical. Output drive strength remains ±12.5 mA under these conditions, ensuring clean edges and minimal overshoot. The AC electrical characteristics table explicitly lists CL = 50 pF test data across full temperature and voltage ranges.
Is NLU3G16AMX1TCG compliant with automotive AEC-Q200 stress testing?
No, NLU3G16AMX1TCG is not AEC-Q200 qualified. While it operates across −55°C to +125°C and meets JEDEC JESD78 latch-up immunity, it lacks the full qualification suite (temperature cycling, vibration, humidity bias) required for automotive grade 2 or 3 applications. For AEC-Q200-compliant alternatives, consult onsemi's Automotive Logic portfolio-e.g., NL17SZ17AMX1TCG.
