Product details
Overview
SN74AUP1G125DBVT from Texas Instruments is a single 3-state bus buffer gate with active-low output enable (OE), designed for low-power signal routing in portable and space-constrained systems. It operates across 0.8 V–3.6 V, delivers 4 mA drive at 3 V, achieves 4.6 ns max propagation delay at 3.3 V, and supports Ioff partial-power-down mode - enabling use in battery-powered SSDs, tablets, and wireless peripherals.
For engineers reviewing the SN74AUP1G125DBVT datasheet, SN74AUP1G125DBVT pinout, SN74AUP1G125DBVT application, or SN74AUP1G125DBVT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package, 1.5 pF input capacitance, 3.6-V I/O tolerance, and guaranteed 3-state behavior during power sequencing via OE pull-up.
Technical Context
The SN74AUP1G125DBVT implements a noninverting buffer with tristate control: when OE is low, Y follows A; when OE is high, Y enters high-impedance state. Its balanced CMOS push-pull output drives ±4 mA at 3 V while maintaining rail-to-rail VOH/VOL performance across the full 0.8 V–3.6 V supply range.
It integrates Ioff circuitry to isolate inputs/outputs at 0 V supply, features standard CMOS inputs with 1.5 pF typical capacitance and hysteresis-enhanced noise immunity, and includes clamp diodes on all I/O pins for ESD robustness (2000 V HBM, 1000 V CDM).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 0.8 V to 3.6 V - enables direct interface with 1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V logic domains without level shifters. |
| Max Propagation Delay | 4.6 ns at 3.3 V, CL = 5 pF - supports reliable operation in high-speed data paths up to ~100 MHz. |
| Output Drive Strength | ±4 mA at VCC = 3 V - sufficient to drive multiple CMOS loads or small LEDs without external buffering. |
| Input Capacitance | 1.5 pF typical - minimizes loading on upstream drivers and preserves signal integrity in dense layouts. |
| Ioff Leakage Current | 0.6 µA max at –40°C to +85°C - ensures safe isolation during partial power-down in mixed-supply systems. |
| ESD Rating | 2000 V HBM, 1000 V CDM - meets industrial handling requirements without additional protection circuitry. |
| 3-State Enable Threshold | OE high = VIH ≥ 2.0 V at VCC = 3.3 V - provides clear margin for TTL- or CMOS-compatible control signals. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 (DBV) package: 5-pin, 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm body, surface-mount, lead-free, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - OE | Active-low output enable input | Drives Y into high-Z when high; must be pulled up to VCC during power-up/down to guarantee defined state. |
| 2 - A | Buffer input | Noninverting data input; accepts 0.8 V–3.6 V logic levels and tolerates up to 4.6 V transient inputs. |
| 3 - GND | Ground reference | Return path for all internal currents; requires low-inductance connection to system ground plane. |
| 4 - Y | 3-state buffered output | Drives high/low when OE = low; presents >10⁹ Ω impedance when OE = high - prevents bus contention. |
| 5 - VCC | Positive supply | Power source for logic core and output stage; bypassing with 100 nF ceramic capacitor near pin is mandatory. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low static power consumption | ICC ≤ 0.9 µA max - extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes and portable audio docks. |
| 3.6-V I/O tolerant inputs | Accepts 5.5-V-tolerant signals while powered from 1.8 V - simplifies voltage translation in mixed-voltage SoC interfaces. |
| Input-disable capability | Allows A to float without causing undefined output or excessive ICC - eliminates need for external pull resistors on unused inputs. |
| Low noise switching | Overshoot/undershoot < 10% of VCC - reduces EMI and avoids false triggering in adjacent analog or RF sections. |
| Wide temperature range | Specified from –40°C to +85°C - suitable for industrial SSDs, enterprise tablets, and telecom power controllers. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bus buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1G125DBVT | Wider VCC range (1.65 V–5.5 V); higher ICC (10 µA typ); no Ioff; 5.5-V tolerant I/O only at VCC ≥ 3.0 V. | Better suited for 5-V legacy systems but lacks partial-power-down safety for battery-critical designs. | Choose SN74LVC1G125DBVT only if interfacing with 5-V peripherals and Ioff is not required. |
| 74AHC1G125SE-7 | Same 0.8 V–3.6 V range; higher drive (±8 mA); 6-pin SOT-363 package; no Ioff; 1000 V HBM ESD rating. | Higher drive supports heavier capacitive loads but larger footprint and missing Ioff limit use in ultra-low-power portable devices. | Prefer 74AHC1G125SE-7 when driving >10 pF loads or requiring dual-channel integration in same package. |
Compared with SN74LVC1G125DBVT and 74AHC1G125SE-7, the SN74AUP1G125DBVT uniquely combines sub-µA static current, guaranteed Ioff, and 3.6-V I/O tolerance in a 5-pin SOT-23 - making it optimal for energy-sensitive, space-constrained, and mixed-voltage portable electronics.

FAQ
What is the recommended pull-up resistor value for OE on SN74AUP1G125DBVT?
The OE pin must be tied to VCC through a pull-up resistor to ensure high-impedance state during power-up/down. The minimum resistor value depends on the current-sinking capability of the driver controlling OE; for most microcontroller GPIOs, 10 kΩ is sufficient. TI specifies that the resistor must allow OE to reach VIH (≥2.0 V at VCC = 3.3 V) under worst-case leakage conditions. SN74AUP1G125DBVT datasheet Section 3 and Figure 5 provide layout guidance for reliable OE biasing.
Does SN74AUP1G125DBVT support true 5-V input tolerance?
No - SN74AUP1G125DBVT inputs are rated for absolute maximum 4.6 V, and functional 3.6-V I/O tolerance is guaranteed only when VCC is within 0.8 V–3.6 V. While inputs can withstand brief 5-V transients per Absolute Maximum Ratings, sustained 5-V signaling violates recommended operating conditions and may cause increased leakage or reliability risk. For 5-V systems, SN74LVC1G125DBVT is the appropriate alternative. SN74AUP1G125DBVT is optimized for sub-3.6 V domains.
Can SN74AUP1G125DBVT drive an LED directly?
Yes - SN74AUP1G125DBVT can sink or source up to ±4 mA at VCC = 3 V, which is sufficient for indicator LEDs with series resistors ≥1 kΩ. However, it is not rated for continuous DC LED current; TI recommends using it for brief pulse-driven indicators (e.g., status blinks) rather than constant-on illumination. Thermal limits and output voltage drop (VOL ≈ 0.31 V at 4 mA) must be verified per application. SN74AUP1G125DBVT is not a dedicated LED driver IC.
Is SN74AUP1G125DBVT pin-compatible with other 5-pin logic buffers?
SN74AUP1G125DBVT uses the industry-standard 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) footprint with pin 1 = OE, pin 2 = A, pin 3 = GND, pin 4 = Y, pin 5 = VCC. This matches SN74LVC1G125DBVT and SN74AHC1G125DBVR pinouts exactly. However, electrical differences - especially Ioff presence, supply range, and drive strength - mean functional substitution requires validation. SN74AUP1G125DBVT is not a drop-in replacement without reviewing system-level voltage, timing, and power constraints.
How does Ioff functionality work in SN74AUP1G125DBVT during power-down?
When VCC = 0 V, the Ioff circuitry in SN74AUP1G125DBVT disables both input and output paths, limiting leakage current to ≤0.6 µA (max) across all pins - preventing back-current flow from live buses into the unpowered device. This protects upstream drivers and avoids unintended logic states in partially powered systems. Ioff is automatic and requires no external control; it is fully characterized from –40°C to +85°C. SN74AUP1G125DBVT leverages this for safe operation in SSDs and tablets with staggered power domains.
