Product details
Overview
NLV74VHC125DTR2G from onsemi is a quad 3-state bus buffer IC designed for high-speed, low-power digital signal routing in mixed-voltage systems. It features four independent non-inverting buffers with active-high output enable (OE), operates from 2.0 V to 5.5 V, delivers 3.8 ns typical propagation delay at 5 V, and supports CMOS-level input compatibility with full 5.0 V output swing-enabling reliable 3.3 V ↔ 5.0 V level translation in data buses.
For engineers reviewing the NLV74VHC125DTR2G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 14-pin TSSOP package, ±25 mA output drive, 3-state leakage < ±2.5 µA, high noise immunity (28% VCC), and automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualification per −Q variant lineage.
Technical Context
The NLV74VHC125DTR2G implements four identical non-inverting buffer stages, each with a dedicated active-high 3-state control input (OE). Its silicon-gate CMOS architecture achieves TTL-compatible speed while maintaining sub-4 µA quiescent current at 25°C. Input structures tolerate up to 5.5 V, enabling safe interfacing between 3 V and 5 V domains without external level-shifting circuitry.
All outputs feature robust 3-state disable behavior with controlled rise/fall times, low dynamic noise (VOLP ≤ 0.8 V), and balanced propagation delays. The device includes power-down protection on inputs and latchup immunity exceeding 100 mA per JESD78 Class II testing-critical for hot-swap and battery-backed system reliability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.0 V to 5.5 V - Enables operation across 3.3 V and 5.0 V logic domains without voltage translation. |
| Propagation Delay (tPLH/tPHL) | 3.8 ns (typ) at VCC = 5.0 V, CL = 15 pF - Supports >100 MHz bus clocking with deterministic timing margins. |
| Output Drive Strength | ±8 mA at VCC = 4.5 V - Sufficient to drive 10–15 cm PCB traces or multiple CMOS loads without signal degradation. |
| 3-State Leakage Current | ±2.5 µA max at VCC = 5.5 V - Ensures minimal bus contention and power loss when outputs are disabled. |
| Noise Immunity | VNIH/VNIL = 28% VCC - Provides robust rejection of EMI and crosstalk in noisy industrial environments. |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | −0.5 V to +6.5 V - Allows safe connection to overvoltage or floating inputs during power sequencing or fault conditions. |
| ESD Rating | Human Body Model > 2000 V - Meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 requirements for board-level ESD robustness. |

| 2, 5, 11, 14 | 3-State Enable (OE1–OE4) | Active-high control: logic HIGH enables output; logic LOW forces high-impedance state. |
| 3, 6, 12, 9 | Buffer Output (Y1–Y4) | Non-inverting buffered outputs with full rail-to-rail swing (0 V to VCC) and ±8 mA drive. |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuitry and I/O; must be low-impedance connection. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-translating buffer converts 3.3 V logic outputs to full 5 V swing while tolerating 5.5 V input transients. Use Value: Input overvoltage tolerance (−0.5 V to +6.5 V) and AEC-Q100-aligned reliability eliminate need for external clamping diodes or regulators. |
| Medical Diagnostic Equipment | Test & Measurement Instrumentation |
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad 3-state buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MC74VHCT125ADTR2G | TTL-compatible inputs (VIH = 2.0 V min @ 5 V), otherwise identical AC/DC specs and pinout. | Better suited for legacy 5 V TTL source interfaces where input threshold matching is critical. | Select when driving from 5 V TTL logic; retains same TSSOP-14 footprint and 3.8 ns speed. |
| SN74LVC125APW | Lower VCC range (1.65–3.6 V), 3.3 V only; higher drive (±24 mA), but no 5 V tolerance. | Optimized for pure 3.3 V systems requiring lower power and higher fanout, not mixed-voltage translation. | Choose only for 3.3 V-only designs; incompatible with 5 V buses or overvoltage inputs. |
Compared with MC74VHCT125ADTR2G, NLV74VHC125DTR2G offers superior 3.3 V → 5 V level translation via CMOS-input compatibility and 5.5 V input tolerance; versus SN74LVC125APW, it trades 3.3 V-only optimization for broader voltage interoperability and automotive-grade robustness.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for NLV74VHC125DTR2G?
The NLV74VHC125DTR2G is rated for operation from −55°C to +125°C, meeting extended industrial and automotive temperature requirements. This specification is confirmed in the Recommended Operating Conditions table of the official onsemi datasheet (Rev. 11, April 2025), and aligns with the AEC-Q100 qualification baseline used for related −Q automotive variants.
Does NLV74VHC125DTR2G support 3.3 V to 5 V level translation?
Yes, NLV74VHC125DTR2G supports bidirectional 3.3 V ↔ 5 V level translation: its CMOS-compatible inputs accept 3.3 V logic levels while its outputs deliver full 5.0 V swing. The datasheet explicitly states this capability and confirms input tolerance up to 5.5 V-enabling safe interfacing without external components.
Is NLV74VHC125DTR2G pin-compatible with standard 74-series logic packages?
Yes, NLV74VHC125DTR2G uses the industry-standard 14-pin TSSOP footprint (Case 948G) and matches the pinout of MC74VHC125 and MC74VHCT125A devices. Pin functions-including A1–A4, OE1–OE4, Y1–Y4, VCC, and GND-are identical across these variants, enabling drop-in replacement in existing designs.
What is the 3-state disable time for NLV74VHC125DTR2G?
The maximum 3-state disable time (tPHZ/tPLZ) for NLV74VHC125DTR2G is 12.0 ns at VCC = 5.0 V and CL = 50 pF, per the AC Electrical Characteristics table. This fast disable ensures minimal bus contention during dynamic enable/disable transitions in time-critical applications.
Does NLV74VHC125DTR2G require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on unused inputs?
Yes, per the datasheet's Recommended Operating Conditions (Note 5), all unused inputs of NLV74VHC125DTR2G must be tied to a valid logic level-either VCC or GND-to prevent floating nodes, increased power consumption, and potential logic instability. No internal pull resistors are integrated.
