Product details
Overview
SN74ABT125QDRQ1 from Texas Instruments is a quad 3-state bus buffer gate for automotive-grade signal isolation and bus driving, featuring −16-mA high-level output drive, 32-mA low-level output drive, 1.5-pF input capacitance, 7-pF output capacitance, and operation across −40°C to 125°C. It enables bidirectional data routing in CAN/LIN subsystems, body control modules, and infotainment interconnects where hot-insertion and Ioff protection are required.
For engineers reviewing the SN74ABT125QDRQ1 datasheet, SN74ABT125QDRQ1 pinout, SN74ABT125QDRQ1 application, or SN74ABT125QDRQ1 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SOIC-14 package layout, automotive qualification evidence (AEC-Q100), hot-swap timing behavior, and direct alternatives with documented functional divergence.
Technical Context
This device implements four independent noninverting buffers, each with dedicated 3-state output-enable (OE) control. Each channel operates at 4.5–5.5 V supply, supports TTL-compatible inputs (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VVIH ≥ 2 V), and delivers propagation delays of 1–6.5 ns (tPLH/tPHL) and enable/disable times of 1–7.5 ns (tPZL/tPHZ) under 5-V conditions.
Its Ioff circuitry limits leakage to ±100 µA when VCC = 0 V and VI/VO ≤ 4.5 V, while power-up 3-state ensures outputs remain high-Z during supply ramping (Δt/ΔVCC ≤ 200 µs/V). Ground bounce (VOLP) remains below 1 V at 5 V and 25°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - Ensures compatibility with 5-V automotive logic rails and tolerance against battery transients. |
| Output Drive | −16 mA (IOH), 32 mA (IOL) - Supports heavy capacitive loads (e.g., >20 pF buses) without signal degradation. |
| Propagation Delay | 1–6.5 ns (tPLH/tPHL) - Enables reliable timing in sub-100-MHz digital interconnects. |
| Ioff Leakage | ±100 µA at VCC = 0 V - Prevents backflow current during partial power-down in modular ECUs. |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to 125°C - Qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood and chassis-mounted applications. |
| Input Capacitance | 3 pF - Minimizes loading on upstream drivers in fan-out-critical bus topologies. |
| ESD Rating | 2000-V HBM, 200-V MM - Meets automotive ESD robustness requirements per JESD22-A114/A115. |
Pinout & Package
SN74ABT125QDRQ1 uses a 14-pin SOIC (D) package with 1.27-mm pitch, 8.75-mm body width, and 1.75-mm max height. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or dot; the device is lead-free (NiPdAu) and RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 4, 10, 13 | Output Enable (OE) | Active-low control per channel; tie to VCC via pullup resistor to ensure high-Z during power-up. |
| 2, 5, 9, 12 | Input (A) | Noninverting data input for corresponding buffer; TTL-compatible thresholds (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2 V). |
| 3, 6, 8, 11 | Output (Y) | 3-state buffered output; high-drive (32 mA sink) and low-drive (−16 mA source) capability. |
| 7 | GND | Signal ground reference for all I/O and internal logic; must be low-impedance connection in automotive PCB layout. |
| 14 | VCC | 5-V power supply; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF ceramic) required within 5 mm of pin per TI layout guidelines. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hot-Insertion Support | Enabled by Ioff and power-up 3-state - prevents damage during live board replacement in gateway ECUs. |
| Automotive Qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified - validated for −40°C to 125°C operation and lifetime reliability in safety-critical systems. |
| High-Drive Outputs | 32-mA sink / −16-mA source - drives long traces, multiple receivers, or optocoupler inputs without external buffers. |
| Low Input Capacitance | 3 pF typical - reduces switching power and preserves edge integrity in high-speed parallel buses. |
| Latch-Up Immunity | >500 mA per JESD17 - eliminates risk of destructive latch-up during voltage transients in 12-V vehicle systems. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC125AQDRQ1 | Lower drive (−24/24 mA), 1.65–3.6 V supply, 3.5-pF Ci | Targets 3.3-V domains only; unsuitable for 5-V legacy automotive buses. | Select when interfacing with modern low-voltage MCUs and no 5-V compatibility is needed. |
| MC74VHC125DTG | Higher VCC range (2–5.5 V), −8/8 mA drive, no AEC-Q100 certification | Lacks automotive qualification and Ioff protection; limited to under-dash consumer modules. | Acceptable for cost-sensitive non-safety applications where full AEC-Q100 compliance is waived. |
Compared with SN74LVC125AQDRQ1 and MC74VHC125DTG, the SN74ABT125QDRQ1 uniquely combines 5-V tolerance, AEC-Q100 Grade 1 rating, and hot-swap readiness-making it the only choice for replacing legacy 74ABT logic in certified ECU designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for SN74ABT125QDRQ1?
The SN74ABT125QDRQ1 is rated for continuous operation from −40°C to +125°C ambient temperature, meeting AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements for under-hood and chassis-mounted automotive electronics. This specification is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108 and confirmed in TI's production test flow for every lot.
Does SN74ABT125QDRQ1 support hot insertion?
Yes, SN74ABT125QDRQ1 supports hot insertion via dual mechanisms: Ioff circuitry limits leakage to ±100 µA when VCC = 0 V, and power-up 3-state holds outputs in high-impedance during supply ramping. These features are tested per JESD78 and documented in the SCAS686B datasheet Section 6.3.
What is the recommended pull-up resistor value for OE pins on SN74ABT125QDRQ1?
The minimum pull-up resistor value for OE pins on SN74ABT125QDRQ1 is determined by the current-sinking capability of the driving source; TI recommends ≥10 kΩ when driven by standard CMOS outputs. For open-collector drivers, values down to 4.7 kΩ maintain safe voltage margins while ensuring fast disable transitions.
Is SN74ABT125QDRQ1 pin-compatible with standard SN74ABT125 devices?
Yes, SN74ABT125QDRQ1 shares identical pinout, footprint, and electrical behavior with industrial-grade SN74ABT125 variants (e.g., SN74ABT125DR), differing only in AEC-Q100 qualification, enhanced ESD ratings, and tighter parametric screening-no PCB redesign is needed for drop-in replacement.
What packaging options are available for SN74ABT125QDRQ1?
SN74ABT125QDRQ1 is supplied exclusively in 14-pin SOIC (D) tape-and-reel packaging (2500 units per reel), with NiPdAu lead finish, RoHS compliance, and MSL Level-1 rating (260°C peak reflow). No PDIP, TSSOP, or QFN variants exist for this automotive-qualified part number.
