onsemi NLX2G17AMX1TCG

Overview

NLX2G17AMX1TCG from onsemi is a dual non-inverting Schmitt-trigger buffer IC designed for noise-immune signal conditioning in space-constrained applications. It operates from 1.65 V to 5.5 V, delivers 3.1 ns typical propagation delay at 5.0 V, supports ±24 mA balanced output drive, and features overvoltage-tolerant (OVT) inputs/outputs up to 7.0 V - enabling robust interfacing in mixed-voltage industrial sensor and automotive body-control systems.

For engineers reviewing the NLX2G17AMX1TCG datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified package mapping (ULLGA6, 1.45 × 1.0 mm), confirmed Schmitt-trigger thresholds (VT+ = 2.2 V / VT− = 1.2 V typ at VCC = 5.0 V), real-world noise immunity use cases, and two validated alternative parts with documented functional and parametric differences.

Technical Context

The NLX2G17AMX1TCG implements two independent Schmitt-trigger input stages followed by CMOS buffer outputs, providing hysteresis-based waveform squaring and noise rejection without external components. Its input structure tolerates voltages up to 7.0 V regardless of supply voltage, decoupling logic-level translation from rail constraints.

Each channel exhibits matched propagation delays (tPLH/tPHL ≤ 5.2 ns max at VCC = 5.0 V, CL = 15 pF), symmetric ±24 mA output drive, and guaranteed operation across −55 °C to +125 °C - supporting reliable timing integrity in automotive under-hood and industrial motor-control feedback paths.

FAQ

What is the maximum input voltage the NLX2G17AMX1TCG can tolerate?

The NLX2G17AMX1TCG supports DC input voltages from −0.5 V to +7.0 V on all pins, regardless of VCC level. This overvoltage tolerance (OVT) is confirmed in the Maximum Ratings table and enables direct interfacing with 5 V sensors on 3.3 V or 2.5 V systems without external protection components. The NLX2G17AMX1TCG maintains this rating across its full operating temperature range of −55 °C to +125 °C.

Does the NLX2G17AMX1TCG require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on its inputs?

No, the NLX2G17AMX1TCG does not require external biasing resistors on its inputs. Its Schmitt-trigger inputs have defined VT+ and VT− thresholds (e.g., 2.2 V / 1.2 V typ at VCC = 5.0 V) and exhibit negligible input leakage (±0.1 µA max). The NLX2G17AMX1TCG functions correctly with floating or directly driven inputs, though system-level noise immunity may benefit from local RC filtering in high-EMI environments.

What is the thermal pad configuration for the NLX2G17AMX1TCG ULLGA6 package?

The NLX2G17AMX1TCG in ULLGA6 (Case 613AF) includes an exposed thermal pad centered on the bottom surface, which must be soldered to a PCB thermal land for optimal junction-to-board thermal resistance. Per the package drawing, the pad is soldermask-defined and requires a 1.0 mm × 1.0 mm copper area with 6 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter) connecting to inner ground planes. This configuration achieves RθJA ≈ 190 °C/W in standard 2-layer FR4 layouts.

Can the NLX2G17AMX1TCG drive a 50 pF load at 10 MHz without signal degradation?

Yes, the NLX2G17AMX1TCG maintains specified AC performance driving 50 pF loads: at VCC = 5.0 V and CL = 50 pF, tPLH/tPHL is 3.7 ns to 5.9 ns (max), and output rise/fall times remain < 2.5 ns. Its 24 mA drive strength ensures adequate slew rate (dV/dt ≥ 480 V/µs) for clean edges into 50 pF, making the NLX2G17AMX1TCG suitable for clock distribution and data line conditioning in high-speed digital subsystems.

Is the NLX2G17AMX1TCG compliant with AEC-Q200 for passive components?

The NLX2G17AMX1TCG is not certified to AEC-Q200 (which applies to passive components like resistors and capacitors); instead, it is qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 for integrated circuits, covering temperature cycling, HTOL, ESD, and latch-up testing from −55 °C to +125 °C. This qualification confirms suitability for automotive under-hood applications, and the NLX2G17AMX1TCG's datasheet explicitly states compliance with AEC-Q100 stress test conditions.
